you get the world for your birthday baby

open your eyes and say yes, no, maybe

the box ticks on, the core is a bomb

the world is silent

you listen like a lover to it

sometimes a mirror's a miracle

sometimes it's nothing at all

in this reflection even angels fall

you could fly anytime

ba-da-da-daa etc.

(even though you own your own comet)

ordinary people

it's okay

you don't have to wear those wings

they're stupid things

i know some dizzy, easy heights

don't stop your life at the lights

don't be smart, be a beginner

don't be wrong, even when it's right

ordinary people

it's okay

we're not watching anyway

it's okay

ba-da-da-daa etc.
