"Extraordinary Life" lyrics

Here in Hollywood
Men are chewing cigarettes
Tell ya how to walk and talk
And leave you such a mess
What I'd do to trade it for your ordinary life

I'm burning firewood
My heat turned off a hundred times
Been broke for 30 years
A failure story paradigm
What I'd do to trade it for your extraordinary life

Ooh
I'd love to see through your eyes
Ooh
I don't think you would (I would)
'Cause it's lonely at the top
But the champagne must taste good

A night's sold out
My fans become my enemies
A fallen king
Hey everybody, look at me
What I'd do to trade it for your ordinary life

Empty venues
Coughing all my hopes and dreams
Faceless rooms
Are always staring back at me
What I'd do to trade it for your extraordinary life

Ooh
I'd love to see through your eyes
Ooh
I don't think you would (I would)
'Cause it's lonely at the top
But the champagne must taste good

The viper bites
The idol of the matinee
Strike a toast
To the gentlemen who were never made
What I'd do to trade it for your ordinary life
What I'd do to trade it for your extraordinary life

The glass is always clearer
On the other side
