Ordinary Girl

I seen her walk in circles
Closing in on the kill and take them down
She'll leave you dead on the ground (on the ground)
Rolling in like a walking cyclone
Pulling in everything that gets too close
And when she's done you'll be broke (oh yeah)
She's gonna tell you lies while she takes your soul
Gonna fool you while she's digging for gold
She's extraordinary, extraordinary trouble kind of girl
She's gonna mesmerize till your eyes are closed
Then she takes you for everything you own
She's extraordinary, extraordinary trouble kind of girl
She's got the devil on both her shoulders
Like a bomb that's just waiting to explode
And by the time that you know
You'll be cold
The kind of beauty that keeps on coming
But if you see her you should be running scared
And get the hell out of there (yeah)
She's gonna tell you lies while she takes your soul
Gonna fool you while she's digging for gold
She's extraordinary, extraordinary trouble kind of girl
She's gonna mesmerize till your eyes are closed
Then she takes you for everything you own
She's extraordinary, extraordinary trouble kind of girl
And she's moving on with her frozen heart and her loaded gun
And you better pray you're not in her way
Not the chosen one
She ain't thinking small
The bigger prize, the harder you fall
She's gonna tell you lies while she takes your soul
Gonna fool you while she's digging for gold
She's extraordinary, extraordinary trouble kind of girl
She's gonna mesmerize till your eyes are closed
Then she takes you for everything you own
She's extraordinary, extraordinary trouble kind of girl
