Common cool, he was a proud young fool in a kick-ass wal-mart tie Rippin down the main drag, trippin on the headlights rollin by In the early dawn when the cars were gone, did he hear the master's call? In the five-and-dime did he wake and find he was only dreamin after all, 'cause This is an ordinary town and the prophet stands apart This is an ordinary town and we brook no wayward heart And every highway leads you prodigal back home To the ordinary sidewalks you were born to roam Rock of ages, love contagious, shine the serpent fire So sang the sage of sixteen summers in the upstairs choir So sang the old dog down the street beside his wailing wall "Go home, go home" the mayor cried when jesus came to city hall, 'cause This is an ordinary town, and the prophet stands alone This is an ordinary town and we crucify our own And every highway leads you prodigal again To the ordinary houses you were brought up in Raised on hunches and junk food lunches and punch-drunk ballroom steps You get to believing you're even-steven with the kids at fast track prep So you dump your bucks on a velvet tux and you run to join the dance But your holy shows and the romans know you're just a child of Circumstance, 'cause This is an ordinary town and the prophet has no face This is an ordinary town and the seasons run in place And every highway leads you prodigal and true To the ordinary angels watchin over you
