Ordinary People
Two proud wives sitting on a door step, crying
wondering who is living out their lives
The kin, the dream, or the lie
It is so extraordinary how they pose us against the very
Men we’re beside in the line
the big boxes go on by
CHORUS:
It’s the time when all the ordinary people
come to get a little hope
If you want to join them
step in line beside them and
open up your throat
Speak your mind child
we’ve spent too much time
leaving all the beauty to their kind
your voice, the truth, it’s there to find
CHORUS:
It is so extraordinary how they pose us against the very
words that taught us how
from the pink crochet to the midnight ways
there’ll be no idea what we’re trying to say
It’s all leading up to this now
CHORUS: (2x)
