Semisonic - Ordinary Life lyrics

rate me

Well I looked for the life fantastic

Cos I read it in a magazine

What I got was myself as a plastic figurine

And the happily ever after

I traded everything to see

Now my scene is the snow on a static TV screen

Lord I can dream of an ordinary life

Where nothing particularly weird is going down

Lord I can dream of an ordinary time

Where nothing particularly hard is spinning us around

Well now read me a bedtime story

And be sure that it's nice and sweet

Cos I don't think I can take any more reality

With a peacefully ever after

For me and my little treat

And I don't want nobody saying "We'll wait and see"

Lord I can dream of an ordinary life

Where nothing particularly weird is going down

Lord I can dream of an ordinary time

Where nothing particularly hard is spinning us around
