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

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
everyday

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
