Wishing for the Normal Lyrics by Amy Lennox, Jos Slovick

Stiles and Drewe’s Soho Cinders (Live Concert Recording)

0

[VELCRO]
Just imagine pouring your cornflakes
Looking up and someone's there
Someone you have just spent the night with
Someone’s life you're proud to share
Haven't put my face on
Haven’t done my hair
Haven't had to worry
As it's him standing there
[ROBBIE]
Just imagine out on the dance floor
Turning round and there he is
It's your man, the one you came in with
Three years on, your hand in his
Living in a semi
Maybe have a cat
Nothing that's too fancy
Tell me what's wrong with that?
[VELCRO & ROBBIE]
Wishing for the normal kind of dream
Nothing too excessive or extreme
Hoping for the humdrum
Is that aiming high?
Others seem to find it
Tell me why on earth can't I?
Wishing for the normal kind of dream
Trouble is they're harder than they seem
Am I too ambitious?
Am I out of touch?
Am I wishing for too much?
[ROBBIE]
Just imagine cooking lasagna
Like those adverts on TV
[VELCRO]
Sitting on a fake leather sofa
Babies bouncing on my knee
[ROBBIE]
Living within reason
Loving when I can
Feeling like a someone
Not some sad also-ran
[VELCRO & ROBBIE]
Wishing for the normal kind of dream
Trouble is they’re harder than they seem
Am I too ambitious?
Am I out of touch?
Am I wishing for too much?
[VELCRO]
Just imagine mowing the lawn
[ROBBIE]
Just imagine popping some corn
[VELCRO]
Just imagine breakfast in bed
[ROBBIE]
Just imagine owning a shed
[VELCRO]
Just imagine doing the school run
[ROBBIE]
Going for picnics
[VELCRO]
Keeping a goldfish
[VELCRO & ROBBIE]
Wishing, wishing
Hoping for the humdrum
Is that aiming high?
Others seem to find it
Tell me why, why, why can’t I?
Wishing for the normal kind of dream
Trouble is they're harder than they seem
[VELCRO]
Going to a nightclub
Cinemas and such
[ROBBIE]
Eating in a restaurant
Happy to go Dutch
[VELCRO & ROBBIE]
Am I too ambitious?
Am I out of touch?
Am I wishing for too much?
[ROBBIE]
Just imagine cleaning the Volvo
[VELCRO]
Just imagine planting a rose bush
[ROBBIE]
Just imagine having a mortgage
[VELCRO]
Just imagine keeping a goldfish
[ROBBIE, spoken]
A goldfish? You sad-o
