Ordinary Angel Songtext
von Hue & Cry

I got the card, delivers the goods
Fills me with happiness
It′s joy for a while 'till the first of the month
Then I′m chasing my tail again
I want a life that's bigger than me
'Cause I′m crushing myself to death
Tell you what I don′t need
No heaven sent deity

'Cause I′m an ordinary angel
Winning tiny victories
And though the ordinary angels fly
Their wings weigh heavily
I try to be a daily genius
There's no idea beyond my reach
With all the angels and the geniuses
My company I′m gonna keep


I'm watching the news and I feel my face
Hanging like plasticene
Now I see the plot, I′ve got the plan
Every move is transparent to me
Profit and power's turning the world
And I'm leaning against the spin
Give me a vision please
And I don′t mean heavenly

I′m an ordinary angel
Winning tiny victories
And though the ordinary angels fly
Their wings weigh heavily
I try to be a daily genius
There's no idea beyond my reach
With all the angels and the geniuses
My company I′m gonna keep

I want a life that's bigger than me
′Cause I'm crushing myself to death
Give me a vision please
And I don′t mean heavenly

I am an ordinary angel

I am an ordinary angel child
Walking with the daily geniuses
I am an ordinary angel

Flying as high as I can...
