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, aah haa haa
verse 2
I'm watching the news, & 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, & I'm leaning against the spin
Give me a vision please, & 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
I want a life that's bigger than me, 'cause I'm crushing myself to death
Give me a vision please, & I don't mean heavenly
Repeat Chorus
I am an ordinary angel child, walking with the daily geniuses
