Little Jack Melody and His Young Turks — Samba Ordinaire lyrics

Lyrics

Good morning, world, hello, alarm
Where’s my several cups of coffee?
A shower chases dreams away
On this ordinary day
Goodbye, sweetheart, and what’s-your-name
How’s my tie, where’s my thermos?
Start up the faithful Chevrolet
On this ordinary day
Hi-ho, hi-ho
It’s a cautious carnival
Virgin wool and protocol
It’s a pinstripe free-for-all
Ho-hum, ho-hum
And it may be apropos
How does that old saying go?
It’s the devil that I know
I’ll push some buttons for a while
Lunch and telephones, et cetera
This suit just happens to be gray
On this ordinary day
Good evening, sweetheart, what smells good?
Scotch and soda and some TV
Can’t think of anything to say
It’s been an ordinary day
