    Yes, quite normal.
    OK, here comes one.

    Oh, they're just typically normal.
    No! This is not manly!
    Well, it is unusual. Well, it's like a rabbit! He's got a head on him like a rabbit!

    You're not runnin' around in your underpants are you?

    We are normal and we want our freedom
    We are normal and we want our freedom

    Wir sind gewhnlich, wir sind zufrieden
    We are normal and we dig Bert Weedon, ha ha!
    We are normal and we want
    Our freedom
    Our freedom
    Freedom!
    Freedom!
    Freedom!
    We are normal and we want our freedom! Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
