I'm never late
_____
When it's time to go to work
_____
I get up early, I go to bed late
_____
Sometimes my back hurts a bit
_____
I really like normal life
_____
Even if sometimes I dream of being far away
_____
And if my dreams are ordinary
_____
Maybe it's because I'm worth just that
_____
It's not gold in my hands
_____
It's not scoring twenty out of twenty
_____
Nor being king nor being queen
_____
And then when there aren't any
_____
Well we put some in our eyes
_____
So once night has fallen
_____
I wander among people
_____
I hear them laugh, I see them dance
_____
It makes me feel alive
_____
And it makes extraordinary
_____
My completely ordinary life
_____
And it makes extraordinary
_____
My completely ordinary life
_____
And in this subway car
_____
We squeeze in without even talking
_____
And even though we're surely too many
We're still nice to look at
_____
We're beautiful in our differences
_____
Talk to me about your country, I think
_____
I settle for nothing, you see
_____
I just want the respect I'm owed
_____
That nothing's big but love
_____
That we can give every day
_____
So once night has fallen
_____
I wander among people
_____
I hear them laugh, I see them dance
_____
It makes me feel alive
_____
And it makes extraordinary
_____
My completely ordinary life
_____
And it makes extraordinary
_____
My completely ordinary life
_____
It's not gold in my hands
_____
It's not scoring twenty out of twenty

Nor being king nor being queen
