I was raking leaves in my own back yard

Putting them in piles and burning them up

The flames got higher

They were out of control

I was hosing them down when the cops showed up

It was extraordinary

Now and then I must aspire

To go out of the ordinary

And set the world on fire

Strange things happen on a Saturday night

Boys meet girls and they all get tight

The dance floor shakes as the trap kit moves

The crowd gets caught like a needle in a groove

It feels extraordinary

Baby, if you wanna be

Out of the ordinary

Come on and dance with me!

I was doing 140 in my SUV

Cruising with my girl it was twenty past three

I was talking about changing my cell phone plan

When my girl says, "Baby, you're a boy, you're not a man"

"You're not extraordinary

Baby, if you wanna be

Out of the ordinary

You don't need technology!"

I was at the post office buying a stamp

Thinking that the girl behind the counter was "fine"

I said, "You think this'll get there by Friday, ma'am?"

She says, "I get off work at quarter past nine"

Extraordinary!

Baby, if you wanna be

Out of the ordinary

Come on and dance with me!
