ordinary joe

Ordinary joe - Nujabes (せば じゅん)

And for my opening line

I'm not trying to indicate my state of mind

I turn you on

I tell you that I'm laughing just to keep from crying

And bringing music when you hear it

Keep on trying to get near it

A little rhythm for your spirit

Oh but that's what it's for

Come on in here's the door

And I've seen a sparrow get high

Wasting time in the sky

He thinks it's easy to fly

He's just a little bit freer than I

Down here on the ground

When you find folks are giving you the runaround

Get your game uptight

And if you must just take your secrets underground

Politicians are trying to speech you

Mad colour watchers are trying to teach you

Very few will really try to reach you

If you're lost in a stack

That's OK come on back

I'd be the last to deny

That I'm just an average guy

Each little bird in the sky

Is just a little bit freer than I

Say ordinary Joe

Although they say you're just a lazy so and so

What they think is real

Is nothing but an animated puppet show

So don't let time and space confuse you

And don't let name and form abuse you

Well let big Joe Williams blues you

In the light of the sun you can see how they run

Oh I've seen a sparrow get high

Wasting time in the sky

He thinks it's easy to fly

He's just a little bit freer than I
