Norm'

He’s an ordinary person
With an ordinary life
With two ordinary children
And an ordinary wife
In an ordinary house
In an ordinary place
Drives an ordinary car
At an ordinary pace
In his ordinary suit
And his ordinary shirt
In an ordinary office
Does his ordinary work
He’s just mister ordinary
Every ordinary day
And he's extraordinary
In his ordinary way
