[Intro: Win Butler]

Those monitors are a little bit hot

Uh, sorry about that

Thank you guys so much for coming out, yeah

Oh man

Do you like Rock and Roll music?

‘Cause I don’t know if I do


[Verse 1: Win Butler]

Is anything as strange as a normal person?

Is anyone as cruel as a normal person?

Waiting after school for you

They want to know if you

If you're normal too

Well, are you?

Are you?


[Verse 2: Win Butler]

Well

I'm so confused

Am I a normal person? You know

I can't tell if I'm a normal person, it's true

I think I'm cool enough

But am I cruel enough?

Am I cruel enough

For you?


[Chorus: Win Butler]

And they will break you down

‘Til everything is normal now

I know

And they will break you down

‘Til everything is normal now

I know


[Verse 3: Win Butler]

They take their tea at two, all the

The normal people, they do

They burn the jungle down

While they were sleeping, it grew

You dream in English now

In proper English, look how

You're just the same as me

It's through


[Chorus: Win Butler]

And they will break you down

‘Til everything is normal now

I know

And they will break you down

‘Til everyone is normal now

I know


[Post-Chorus: Win Butler]

If that's what's normal now

I don't want to know

If that's what's normal now

Mama don't make me go


[Bridge: Win Butler]

When they get excited, they try to hide it

Look at those normals go

When they get excited, they try to hide it

Look at those normals go

When they get excited, they try to hide it

Look at those normals go

When they get excited, they try to hide it...No!


[Chorus: Win Butler]

And they will break you down

‘Til everything is normal now

I know

And they will break you down

‘Til everything is normal now

I know


[Post-Chorus: Win Butler]

If that's what's normal now

I don't want to know

If that's what's normal now

[Outro: Regine Chassagne & Win Butler]

Maybe if you hang together

You can make the changes in our hearts

And if you hang together

You can change us, just where should you start?

I've never really ever met a normal person

I've never really ever met a normal person

I've never really ever met a normal person

I've never really ever met a normal person

Like you

How do you do?

How do you do?

Thank you
