Ordinary People

Two out of work models and a fashion slave[00:00:30]

Try to dance away the Piccolo night[00:00:33]

The bartender poured herself another drink[00:00:37]

While two drunks were watchin' the fight[00:00:41]

The champ went down and he got up again[00:00:45]

Then he went out like a light[00:00:48]

Fightin' for the people[00:00:52]

But his timing wasn't right[00:00:56]

The high rollin' people[00:00:59]

Takin' limos in the neon light[00:01:04]

The Las Vegas people[00:01:07]

They came to see a Las Vegas fight[00:01:12]

Fightin' for the people[00:01:15]

There's a man in the window with a big cigar[00:01:59]

Says everything's for sale[00:02:02]

He had a house and a boat and a railroad car[00:02:06]

The owner's gotta go to jail[00:02:09]

He acquired these things from a life of crime[00:02:13]

Now he's sellin' them to make bail[00:02:17]

He was rippin' off the people[00:02:21]

Sellin' guns to the underground[00:02:25]

Livin' off the people[00:02:28]

Skimmin' the top when there was no one around[00:02:32]

Tryin' to help the people[00:02:36]

Lose their a** for a piece of ground[00:02:40]

A patch o' ground people[00:02:43]

He was dealin' antiques in a hardware store[00:03:27]

But he sure had a lot to hide[00:03:30]

He had a back room full of the guns of war[00:03:34]

And a ton ammunition besides[00:03:38]

Yeah, he walked with a cane[00:03:41]

Kept a bolt on the door with five pit bulls inside[00:03:43]

Just a warnin' to the people[00:03:48]

In case they might try to break in at night[00:03:53]

Protection from the people[00:03:56]

He's sellin' safety in the darkest night[00:04:01]

Tryin' to help the people[00:04:03]

Get the drugs to the street all right[00:04:08]

Tryin' to help the people[00:04:11]

Well, it's hard to say where a man goes wrong[00:04:56]

Might be here and it might be there[00:04:58]

What starts out weak might get too strong[00:05:02]

If you can't tell foul from fair[00:05:05]

But it's hard to judge from an angry throng[00:05:08]

Of hands stretched up in the air[00:05:13]

Vigilante people[00:05:16]

Takin' the law into their own hands[00:05:18]

The conscientious people[00:05:23]

Crackin' down on the drug lord and his bands[00:05:27]

Government people[00:05:31]

Confiscatin' all the dealer's land[00:05:35]

The patch o' ground people[00:05:38]

A new Rolls Royce, a company car[00:06:52]

They were racin' down the street[00:06:55]

Each one was tryin' to make it to the gate[00:06:59]

Before employees manned the fleet[00:07:02]

The trucks full of products for the modern home[00:07:05]

Were set to roll out into the street of ordinary people[00:07:09]

Tryin' to make their way to work[00:07:13]

The downtown people[00:07:20]

Some are saints and some are jerks[00:07:24]

That's me, everyday people[00:07:27]

Stoppin' for a drink on their way to work[00:07:29]

Alcoholic people, takin' it one day at a time[00:07:35]

Down on the assembly line[00:09:19]

They keep puttin' the same things out[00:09:20]

The people today, they just ain't buyin'[00:09:24]

Nobody can figure it out[00:09:29]

They try like hell to build a quality in[00:09:31]

They're workin' hard without a doubt[00:09:35]

Ordinary people[00:09:38]

But the dollar's what it's all about[00:09:42]

Lee Iaccoca people[00:09:45]

But the customers are walkin' out[00:09:49]

The nose to the stone people[00:09:52]

Yeah, they look but they just don't buy[00:09:57]

The patch o' ground people[00:10:00]

In a dusty town the clock struck high noon[00:10:59]

Two men stood face to face[00:11:00]

One wore black and one wore white[00:11:04]

But of fear there wasn't a trace[00:11:08]

A hundred and eighty years later[00:11:11]

Two hot rods drag through the very same place[00:11:14]

A half million people[00:11:18]

They moved in to pick up the pace[00:11:22]

A factory full of people[00:11:26]

Makin' parts to go to outer space[00:11:30]

A train load of people[00:11:33]

They were leavin' for another place[00:11:38]

Out of town people[00:11:41]

Down at the factory they're puttin' new windows in[00:12:26]

The vandals made a mess of things[00:12:30]

And the homeless just walked right in[00:12:35]

Well, they worked here once and they live here now[00:12:38]

But they might work here again[00:12:41]

The ordinary people[00:12:45]

They're just livin' in a dream[00:12:49]

Hard workin' people[00:12:52]

Just don't know what it means[00:12:56]

To give up people[00:13:00]

They're just like they used to be[00:13:04]

Patch o' ground people[00:13:07]

Out on the railroad track they're cleanin' ol' number nine[00:14:34]

They're scrubbin' the boiler down[00:14:41]

She really is lookin' fine, a beauty, that number nine[00:14:44]

Times'll be different soon they're gonna bring her back on line[00:14:48]

Ordinary people[00:14:54]

They're gonna bring the good things back[00:14:58]

Hard workin' people[00:15:01]

They put the business back on track[00:15:06]

The everyday people[00:15:09]

I got faith in the regular kind[00:15:13]

Patch o' ground people[00:15:16]
