They said you called me maybe yesterday,

I don't even have the strength to pick up the phone.

You wouldn't even know me since you went away,

The Prozac doesn't do it for me anymore.

Yeah you ought to take your medication everyday,

Be a good dog, live life in a wonderful way.

Tell me why you want to be blind.

I don't want to be normal like you.

I know now everyday

I get closer to the place inside where I can be normal too.

I heard those stupid people talk about you again.

I just have to laugh to keep from hurting bad.

Their simple minds just cannot seem to understand

You are neurotic and depressed, it doesn't mean that you're sad.

You walk around oblivious to everything,

You wear that party dress and black mascara,

Like you're queen for the day.

[Chorus]

I will never be normal like you.

You walk around oblivious to everyone,

I see you walking slow and simple,

Underneath the big black sun.

Tell me why you want to be blind.

I don't want to be normal like you,

I know now every day

I get closer to the place inside where I can be complacent,

I get closer to the place inside where I can be sedated,

I get closer to the place inside where I can be normal too.

Where I can be normal like you,

Maybe normal like you,

I can be normal like you
