"I Am So Ordinary (DEMO)" lyrics

I nearly died, I suicided softly
I saw her shadow through the cafe window
I watched you lean across the table
I watched you whisper in her ear

And she is your holy Mary
And I am so ordinary
And you can use me if you want to
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
And I am so ordinary
She looks like me, but a bit prettier
She's a skater and a ballet dancer
I saw her on your motorcycle
In the seat I thought was meant for me

And she is your holy Mary
And I am so ordinary
And you can use me if you want to
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
And I am so ordinary

And when your mother came to Boston, you disappeared
And then I saw you three together
I guess she'll make the best impression with her charming femininity

And she is your holy Mary
And I am so ordinary
And you can lose me if you want to
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe
And I am so ordinary
And I am so ordinary

Oh, but I'm the one you will call when alone
And I'm the one who will give when she's gone
And so I give, so I give

I tell myself that love is truly giving
Somehow I justify this
Hoping you will understand me
Hoping you will love me back

And she is your holy Mary
And I am so ordinary
And she is your queen Cleopatra
And I'm just your morning after
And she is your Star-Spangled Banner
And I am just Frère Jacques
And you can lose me if you want to
I know you need me just like an old soft shoe

And I am so ordinary
