[Verse 1]
Ask me why
I say it's most unusual
How can I even try to explain
Why today I feel like dancing
Singing like lovers sing

[Refrain]
When I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing
I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing

[Verse 2]
Ask me when (Ta-ra-ra-ra)
I say it started when I met you (Ta-ra-ra-ra-ra)
And ever since then I knew that the past couldn't last
For right now, I think I'm running
A race that I know I'm gonna win

[Refrain]
And I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing
I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing

[Bridge]
If people say I'm crazy, I tell 'em that it's true
Let them watch with amazement
Say it won't last beyond breakfast
It's a phase he's going through
Denigrate or speculate on what I'm going through
Because it isn't the sort of thing I would normally do

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
Ask me what (Ta-ra-ra-ra)
I say I think it's good for you (Ta-ra-ra-ra-ra)
Believe it or not, I know where it's all leading to
I feel like taking all my clothes off
Dancing to the Rite of Spring

[Refrain]
And I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing
I wouldn't normally do this kind of thing
I wouldn't normally do this kind of
This kind of thing
