What's Ailing Norman? Songtext
von The Normals

I see that I need
To end this game of charades before you
And I see what you need
′Cause I've been there before
Hey there pal, you′ve got that look on your face
I know you've been hearing everything I say
I know what's wrong, but I′ll play dumb
Hey there pal, what′s the matter Norman?
Did you get some bad news?
Tell me you got the blues
I see that I need
To end this game of charades before you
And I see what you need
'Cause I′ve been there before
I love this game, who's wrong and who′s right?
Send in the clowns with their masks of white
Caked with lies, and truth and pain I'm slowly unmasked, and I′m faced with shame
Is it your mommy or your dad?
Or did another friend go bad?
I see that I need
To end this game of charades before you
And I see what you need
'Cause I've been there before
You say
You got the nerve to ask me what′s wrong
And my fear is what′s four letters long
And do you cry?
Oh what's ailing Norman?
I see that I need
To end this game of charades before you
And I see what you need
′Cause I've been there before
