An Ordinary Guy

Текст песни Malcolm Gets - An Ordinary Guy

I don't deserve your attention
I'm hardly worthy of mention
I've got a job and a pension
Nothing remarkable, nothing very strange
I go to work on a Monday
And to the park on a Sunday
Never suspecting that one day
My life would suddenly change
I'm just the guy living down the hall
A normal ordinary Joe, that's all
Who'd never dream of walking through a wall
At all
It's all beyond comprehension
Why me? A slave to convention
Without an ounce of pretension
No earthly reason why anyone should care
You might have walked by me on the stair
And not have noticed that I was there
But now my boundaries have turned to air
I was a monk in a cloister
But now the world is my oyster
If I can walk through the door
Then life's not dull anymore
Now I can wander the world
Why should I squander my life behind closed doors
When I can take a look at yours?
But where on earth would that get me?
It might scare me
It might upset me
Still, life's acquired a dimension
That's quite beyond comprehension
Was this divine intervention?
I won't need these anymore
I wonder what it's all for
What's it for?
