I was born into the suburbs
Had an average uneventful kind of youth
Playing baseball and atari
Got a dollar every time I lost a tooth
Normal boy
Normal boy
Played the fool inside the classroom
Got my first car on the mirror put some dice
And the girls that I would ask out would say no
But always said that I was nice
Normal boy
Normal boy
I was bullied and the bully
And I mostly felt alone
Out of sync with everyone
Living in my own time zone
Truth is I was a weird kid
Shy but funny
Didn't know where to fit in
Hell it was the eighties
I mean where do I begin?
But there are no regrets
It made me into who I am today
When I think about my life then
I can still say that I had it pretty good
But if I had the chance to go back
I can't say to you exactly that I would
Normal boy
Normal boy
Normal boy
