[Verse 1]
I left a man
Asleep in the nude
Paint in my pocket
Lipstick and rouge
Everything I ever wanted
What a lovely pie you baked
Is anybody listening
Don't the painted birds ever fly away

[Chorus]
It's just an ordinary morning
It's just an ordinary day
And I'm just an ordinary woman
Slipping away

[Verse 2]
The walls have been talking
About me again
I'm good for a joke, but when I awoke
The dream didn't end
Now every time I turn around
I'm only sleeping, John, is anybody out there?
Don't the wounded birds still sing?

[Chorus]
It's just an ordinary morning
It's just an ordinary day
And I'm just an ordinary woman
Slipping away
