Ordinary People Lyrics (Kinks Lyrics)
Star:
I am the image maker. I am the magic
Maker. I can turn the most ordinary
Man in the world into a star. to prove
My point I am going to find the most
Mundane little man and turn him into
Celebrity. hmm! this looks like a
Suitably uninteresting house. I wonder
If theres anybody here with enough
Star quality?

He presses the doorbell.

Star:
Hello. whats your name?

Wife:
Andrea.

Star:
Oh, thats a nice name. whats your
Husbands name?

Wife:
Norman.

Star:
His names norman. that sounds
Ordinary enough. I would like you to
Join in a unique experiment with me.
I am going to take normans place for
A few days. I m going to research his
Ordinary dull little existence.

Wife:
Oh you cant come in now! the place
Is in a terrible mess!

Star:
That doesnt matter. I want you to act
Normally. I want you to treat me as if i
Were norman. I am going to sacrifice
My normal flamboyant life style and
Become ordinary, boring little norman
For a few days.

Ordinary people

Its like another world, being here with you,
Its quite a trip for me, so this is reality.
Im studying every movement, Im trying to learn the part,
Now I want you to be natural, just relax and be as you are,
cos its all for art, I want to observe the ordinary people

Tomorrow I shall become norman,
I shall go to his office,
Mix with his workmates.
And if they ask any questions
I shall say Im doing research for one of my songs.
Nomand and I are changing places
And Im going to make him a star,
So Im throwing away my stage suit and Im packing away my guitar,
For the sake of art Im gonna mix with the ordinary people.

Star:
God these pyjamas are awful!

Wife:
Awful? well all I can say is my norman wears them every night.

Star:
Alright, no sacrifice is too great for art!

The things Ive done for music,
The things Ive done for art.
So Ill make these sacrifices and Ill take it like a star
For the sake of art I will mix with the ordinary people.

Star:
Youd better come to bed darling.

Wife:
Coming! youll never get up for work in the morning.

Im making observations, and character simulations.
Ill mix with his friends and relations,
And hell be a part of me.

Chorus
Hes changing places with norman,
To get background for his songs.

Im immortalising his life
And Ill even sleep with his wife,
For the sake of art Ill go to bed like the ordinary people.

Turn out the light.
Turn out the light.

The star exchanges his silver stage
Suit for normans pin stripe suit,
Umbrella and briefcase. he forsakes
His customary brandy and cigars and
Settles for a cup of hot chocolate before
Going to bed.
