[00:00.00]The Only Normal People - Steve Forbert
[00:10.70]The only normal people
[00:13.27]That you know they're doing well
[00:15.53]And they'll be out there eating breakfast
[00:18.19]At the Nelva Courts Hotel
[00:20.93]And they'll be off and down the highway
[00:23.95]In their this year's Chevrolet
[00:26.24]And they're just three hours north of Gulfport
[00:28.94]On their weekend holiday
[00:31.38]A little getaway hey hey
[00:34.53]For the only normal people
[00:42.74]The only normal people
[00:44.81]Tell you everything's alright
[00:47.27]They said the sun comes up each morning
[00:50.22]And the stars come out at night
[00:52.83]And they said Kellogg still makes Corn Flakes
[00:55.76]And that Classic Coke is back
[00:58.16]And you know Reagan's in the White House
[01:00.95]And his hair's a natural black
[01:03.55]It's a natural fact
[01:06.33]Says the only normal people
[01:14.63]The only normal people
[01:17.04]Drink their coffee sweet with cream
[01:19.54]That's as they gaze out from their easy chairs
[01:22.49]And color TV screens
[01:25.16]And as they watch the world of problems
[01:27.63]On their cable evening news
[01:30.09]You know they wonder why
[01:31.90]Those people choose to live the way they do
[01:35.42]Don't they wanta do
[01:38.37]Like the only normal people
[01:46.69]The only normal people
[01:48.75]Do exactly as they should
[01:51.61]You know they never borrow money
[01:54.32]And their credit's always good
[01:56.92]You know they file their honest tax return
[01:59.72]A month before it's due
[02:02.20]And wave to all those nice policemen
[02:04.89]Up on Grandview Avenue
[02:07.46]Howdy-do to you
[02:10.13]Says the only normal people
[02:18.62]The only normal people
[02:20.96]Never see coc*ine or smack
[02:23.62]You know they don't smoke m*******a
[02:26.28]And they're miles away from crack
[02:28.94]And all those pills a doctor give them;
[02:31.30]Help a sinus headache some
[02:34.19]You know they'll drink because it's social
[02:36.87]But they won't have more than one
[02:39.57]Sorry gotta run
[02:42.33]Says the only normal people
[02:50.60]They go to church on Sunday
[02:52.94]With their happy healthy son
[02:55.64]Who's going to run their family business
[02:58.20]Just as they themselves have done
[03:00.96]And he will live to own a golf cart
[03:03.60]And a backyard swimming pool
[03:06.03]And he won't never sleep with boys
[03:08.64]Or think of dropping outta school
[03:11.29]It wouldn't sit too cool
[03:14.44]With his only normal people
[03:22.50]Ya the only normal people
[03:24.94]Don't know anything about
[03:27.41]Your world of sleepless night and pressures;
[03:30.22]And they never once freak out
[03:32.64]You know they run their lives on course
[03:35.30]And they keep a steady even keel
[03:37.89]They hear you talk about frustration
[03:40.84]But they don't know how it feels
[03:43.57]No it isn't real
[03:46.05]For those only normal people
[03:54.36]They eat their three square meals a day
[03:56.93]And they do their exercise at night
[03:59.51]And always look before they leap
[04:01.96]And keep their seatbelts buckled tight
[04:04.79]So they don't get into accidents
[04:07.60]And wind-up on their backs
[04:10.13]And they also don't get AIDS or cancer
[04:12.92]And they don't have heart attacks
[04:15.52]Can't you just relax
[04:18.47]Like the only normal people
[04:26.05]I bet they're down at J C Penny's
[04:28.99]For that riding lawn mower now
[04:31.65]You know that one that takes attachments
[04:33.97]Like that ten blade garden plow
[04:36.69]I bet you'll pass them down there smiling
[04:39.58]As you race to beat the bell
[04:42.06]They are the only normal people;
[04:44.98]They're ones you don't know well
[04:47.30]That you don't know well
[04:50.36]They're the only normal people
[04:58.03]That you don't know well
[05:01.02]They're the only normal people
[05:07.16]Ya ya ya
[05:08.88]That you don't know well
[05:11.69]They're the only normal people
