Ordinary people dream, ordinary dreams
Of the unusual, of outstanding themes
Ordinary people fear, ordinary fears
Crying in silence, solitary tears
Ordinary people live, ordinary lives
All suffering the same, cruelly common strife
And they all share the pride,
Fallacy's on the other side
A common belief to be
Exceptional, like you and me
Yeah, I'm a common freak
Ordinary people live, veiled drowsiness
Lulled in a life of cash and success,
Usual misbehave, driven by fears
Of loss and fate and an evil appears.
The mean give up, follow their urges
From a cradle to a grave, their daily dirges
And they all share the pride,
Fallacies's on the other side
A common belief to be
Exceptional, like you and me
They say we're just drops in the ocean
Driven to an oily bleak wave
I don't believe in idle motion
I'm the drop on top of a freak wave
Yeah, I'm a common freak
Yeah, I'm a common freak
Yeah, I'm a common freak
