The Only Normal People (Single Version)

The only normal people that you know they're doin' well
And they'll be out there eating breakfast at the Nova Court Hotel
And they'll be off and down the highway in their this year's Chevrolet
And they're just three hours north
Of Gulfport on their weekend holiday
A little getaway hey hey
For the only normal people

The only normal people that tell you everything's alright
They say the sun comes up each morning and the stars come out at night
And they say Kellogg's still makes Corn
Flakes and that Classic Coke is back
And you know Reagan's in the White
House and his hair's a natural black
It's a natural fact
Says the only normal people

The only normal people that drink their coffee sweet with cream
That's as they gaze out from their easy chairs they call a TV screen
And as they watch the world of problems on their cable evening news
You know they wonder why those people choose to live the way they do
Don't they wanna do
Like the only normal people

The only normal people who do exactly as they should
You know they never borrow money and their credit's always good
You know they file their honest tax return a month before it's due
And wave to all those nice policemen up on Grandview Avenue
Howdy do to you
Says the only normal people

The only normal people who never see cocaine or smack
You know they don't smoke marijuana and they're miles away from crack
And all those pills their doctor gives them help a sinus headache some
You know they'll drink because it's
Social but they won't have more than one
Sorry gotta run
Says the only normal people

They go to church on Sunday with their happy healthy son
Who's gonna run their family business
Just as they themselves have done
And he will live to own a golf cart and a backyard swimming pool
And he won't never sleep with boys or think of dropping out of school
He wouldn't sit too cool
With his only normal people

Yeah the only normal people don't know anything about
Your world of sleepless nights and
Pressures and they never once freak out
You know they run their lives on course
And they keep a steady even keel
They hear you talk about frustration but they don't know how it feels
No it isn't real
For those only normal people

They eat their three square meals a
Day and they do their exercise at night
And always look before they leap and
They keep their seat belts buckled tight
And so they don't get into accidents and wind up on their backs
They also don't get AIDS or cancer and they don't have heart attacks
Can't you just relax
Like the only normal people

I'll bet they're down at JC Penney's for that riding lawnmower now
You know that one that takes attachments
Like that ten blade garden plow
I'll bet you'll pass them down there
Smiling as you race to beat the bell
They are the only normal people they're the ones you don't know well
That you don't know well

They're the only normal people
That you don't know well
They're the only normal people
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that you don't know well
They're the only normal people
