Låttexter: Van Morrison. The Philosopher's Stone. Ordinary People.

Ordinary people just don't comprehend
Ordinary people just don't seem to comprehend
The thing you feel they don't even know about

Cut yourself, that never did you no good
You cut yourself, that never did you no good
Nobody watching you
You gotta take care of yourself, real thing

When I came down your avenue
Blew you every, blew you every which way
When I came down your avenue, blew you ever which way
Nobody watching you, you gotta take care of yourself

Ordinary people, oh, they just don't seem to comprehend
No, they don't
Oh, ordinary, every day people just don't
Just don't seem to comprehend, no, they don't

Hey, the thing you feel they don't, they don't
They don't even, even, even know, even know about
