Can you hear me?

In your face
There's nowt left
They have defaced
The marks you left
Upon the wall

The writing's now not there at all
Can you stand what you stood for
Are you more normal then before?

Goodbye to the normals
Goodbye to the normals

In your place
There's just chaps
The kids aren't alright
They know
They're born today

Reaching out to feel the sun
At the time it seemed like fun
I was there when you got done
Lived for two weeks by the surf
We used to know what we were worth
Before the normals fell to earth

Goodbye to the normals
Goodbye to the normals

Whatever happened
To the mean mortals crew
The fine young casuals blew a fuse
And so the Burslem lads
Now that they're all dads
They meant so much to me
It makes me sad

In your wake
There's nowt left
