There’s nothing wrong with an ordinary life We had widescreen, high definition surround sound love affairs And low budget B movie one night stands Somehow it was always the end of the summer And we dragged ourselves through the streets at dawn To our days jobs and dole office appointments Fueled on weapons grade hope and uncut dreams And the days went by, and the days went by And the days went by like strobe lights There’s nothing wrong with an ordinary life One day you will find yourself at a friends 40th birthday party Wondering how the days turned into decades and if anyone still does drugs And you will dance, dance off the minutes and the moments And magic and the misery and the miracles and monotony As you unfurl into infinity among the solar systems and galaxies A dopamine driven pinball machine studded with hair and nails and teeth Hard wired with desire and fear and dreams hosted by the ghost of a memory of a memory, of a memory, of a memory of a memory There’s nothing wrong with an ordinary life
