Ordinary

And one day

The very last person who remembers you will die

And in that moment

It will be as if you never exi-

One day my car will be stripped down

Its pieces sold to make a better car

Maybe that's the way I'll be remembered

Just spare parts in somebody else's car

No I don't wanna be ordinary

Just a face lost in a crowd

Ordinary, ordinary, ordinary

I want them to teach about me

In every history book

I don't wanna fade away

As fast as my looks

I wanna be remembered

Long after I'm gone

I wanna leave a legacy

A name that carries on

I wanna be remembered

Go down for generations

I wanna have a legacy

Across a hundred nations

I'm trying to write a new story

But the pages keep turning blank

And the ink that was so black

Dries the moment I whip it back

No I don't wanna be ordinary

Just a co-worker in a boring staff

Ordinary, ordinary, ordinary

I want them to teach about me

In every history book

I don't wanna fade away

As fast as my looks

I wanna be remembered

Long after I'm gone

I wanna leave a legacy

A name that carries on

I wanna be remembered

Go down for generations

I wanna have a legacy

Across a hundred nations

Ordinary, ordinary, ordinary

I don't wanna be

No I don't wanna be

Ordinary, ordinary, ordinary

That's why life is impossible to win

You're born, and then you die
