Ordinary Life

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 --- Ordinary Life - Semisonic
