A Life More Ordinary

We met upon the station
Standard class together for the journey ahead  
Got married in an old church
Saw the kids through school – and those lean years beyond
Got jobs and paid our taxes
Saved up for those rainy days and those in the sun
Bought a house with lovely garden
Where we laughed and cried and sang and drank ‘til the dawn

Living in a life more ordinary
In our life more ordinary
Our hope shines through

We cleared our debts and millstones
Made the time to take a trip around the world
Paid off our debt to “Big Society”
Gave away some money to the less-fortunate
Looked after ageing family members
Cried a lot when oh, they passed away

Living in a life more ordinary
In our life more ordinary
In this life more ordered:
We will cede control to cunning clowns
The blatant lies that grind us down

Life more ordinary – ha ha ha ha
Life more ordinary – ha ha ha ha
In our life.

In this life more ordinary
Our hope shines through
If this is the right wing then who’s on the left wing?

 “You’re just ordinary”

Life more ordinary
Life more ordinary
Life more ordinary
If this is the starter then serve up the main course

Life more ordinary
If this is the B-side then please play the A-side
