The Ordinary People

I am quite ordinary myself that much of me I do know But in numbers around me my type seem to grow For ordinary people I meet every day And in that I mean ordinary in an ordinary way They live everywhere and they live on your street The ordinary people are not hard to meet We even elect them to positions of power Suppose one person's weed to another a flower Our entertainment and sporting celebrities and politicians seem ordinary indeed Suppose they have in them the will to succeed At what they choose to do and though you may not agree Those born into royalty seem ordinary to me Even those we look up to and we choose to admire The thoughts of the ordinary in us inspire.
