VERSE 1
Eddie was extraordinarily ordinary
Never securing a wife
Feeling the weight of his worth
He skipped and hobbled through life
Oh Eddie, your head's not right
VERSE 2
Eddie was angst-ly acquainted with unrequited
Filling his days with despair
Clipping his lawn of astro turf
And mowing his greying hair
Oh, Eddie thought no one cared
VERSE 3
Eddie was prone to ever perseverate
Never relenting the pain
Wearing his wellies on sunny days
And opening his window for rain
Oh Eddie, wasn't ready when the time came
ENDING
Longing to be somebody
Back-stroking in mental mirage
Resisting reassurances
Eddie often self-sabotaged
Oh Eddie, when will you understand
Even Ordinary is Extraordinary in the Maker's Hands
