Why'd we have to get so hip, oh, why'd we have to take that trip, honey
You look dumb in dungarees & so do I; C'mon, go put on your nicest dress, and I'll put on my tie
Here's why……

I'm tired of rock and rollin', let's get married honey, let's go bowlin'
Throw away our pot & acid, spend the weekend at Lake Placid
Too hard to live in this town this strange
What say you and I get normal for a change
Chorus
What say you and I get normal, It don't have to be that formal
Just sit and watch TV like other do
We'll eat meat and mashed potatoes, cut our hair so folks don't hate us
Life is nuts enough just livin' here wichoo

Let's see who can be more borin', you do the dishes honey, I'll start snoring
Get a mower do some mowin' spend all morning gettin' it goin.
We'll show everyone in town we're not deranged
What say you and I get normal for a change

Chorus

Bridge
It's gonna change us honey sexually, from now on we'll just be once-a-weekers.
It's gonna change us darlin' even musically,
get our records in the mail, get a set of lousy speakers.

So if you'll beg my pardon, I'll go out and start a garden
It'll just be small potatoes, just some lettuce & tomatoes
And if either one comes up, we'll join the Grange
What say you and I get normal for a change.

Chorus

End with Bobby McGoo
