John Legend's, "Ordinary People"

Ordinary Negros

Ordinary people
Actually, these are the words to an actual parody of the song---maybe from the Russ Parr morning show.

John Legend's, "Ordinary People"
Misheard Lyrics:
We're just ordinary Negros
We don't know which way to go
Because we're ordinary Negros
And we always pay it slow.
We don't know which way to go
Because we're ordinary Negros
And we always pay it slow.
Original Lyrics:
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Because we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow.
We don't know which way to go
Because we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow.
