Ordinary

from Vicious Waltz by Bryan Dunn

/

lyrics

The only crime
That I call mine
Is punk rock played in 3/4 time
It's a vicious waltz that holds a candle to you
But it was fun
You and your gun
My golden throat and silver tongue
And the radio
Will never know
Another

It was wonderful

But you're so ordinary now

A subtle fraud
The wink and nod
You just want someone to applaud
And when you say love, you mean penetration
A little wine
And I was fine
But when I looked I lost your mind
Your sweet nothings and your idle threats of violence

They all sound the same

And you're so ordinary now

I could have sold you as a brand new Jesus Christ
Made a killing from the shoddy merchandise
I want a Jesus with a Kung Fu Grip

You've got it made
With me betrayed
But I'm still first in your parade
When I turned around, no one followed after
It's almost gone
The right and wrong
You sit and sing your murder songs
You kill what you love so you can sing about it

Do you love me now?

You're so ordinary now
