Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ordinary people

Just don't understand

Ordinary people

Just don't understand

Thing you feel

They don't even know about

[Verse 2]

Hurt yourself

There are people that don't do you no good

Hurt yourself

You cut yourself, baby

They don't do you no good

Nobody watching you

You gotta take care of yourself

[Verse 3]

Why can't diner avenue?

Blew you every which way

Breaking down your avenue

How to blow you every which way

I tell the soulless region

Well, you try to get to find some peace of mind

[Verse 4]

Cut yourself, baby

Man, that don't ever do you no good

Cut yourself

Man, that don't do you no good

[Verse 5]

Outside and inside the stormy region

Oh, trying to find some peace of mind

Walking down the road

Blew you, blew you every which way

Walking down the road

Blew you every which way

[Verse 6]

Nobody watching you

You gotta take care of yourself

[Verse 7]

Ordinary, everyday people

Just don't seem to comprehend

Ordinary, everyday people

They just don't comprehend

[Verse 8]

The thing you feel, they don't even

They don't even know about
