Fu- the norm, turn the tide
Why do anything the normal way?
When we can do it the right way
(Call it disrespect, call it whatever you like)
I'm going against the preestablished rules
For the sake of not following everyone
We don't see things as they are, oh, no-no-no-no-no
We see them as we are
Don't look where you fall
But where you slipped and when you lose
Don't lose the lesson
Call it disrespect
(This song has no chorus)
Call it insane, call it humor
Call it whatever you like
(This song has no chorus)
What is sanity? We all intuitively know what is
But how can we explain what sanity means?
As a legal term it simply means having "normal" or "sound" powers of mind
But what does one consider normal?
Moreover, who decides this?
In fact, our whole society may deem certain acts as insane
While it may only be a question of cultural difference
It comes down to traditions and customs
And an underlaying implicit set of rules and standards
When you think of a norm, you are probably thinking about being normal
But norm means a standard or representative value for a group
In music meaning expectations about song structures
What behaviours are appropriate within given group with given context?
I'm so bored with verse, bridge and chorus!
I'm bored with any typical standards!
I'm bored with people who lack the motivation
To achieve and live off others
Go fetch the courage that you need
To declarate your freedom
I'm bored with people
Not allowing others thoughts by man-made rules
(This song has no chorus)
There are written and there's unwritten
Rules of how you should write songs
(This song has no chorus)
In society we the people decide what is normal and abnormal
So, stop for a minute and reevaluate
Many people believe that wrong things
Aren't wrong if they are done by nice people like themselves
Large groups of people can be convinced
Into acting in a way that is considered sane or insane to another group
It happens all the time
Understand that our knowledge of music is limited
So, stop pretending to be what you are not
Stop act in contradition to your own stated beliefs
Politeness, the most acceptable hypocrisy
♪
I believe that "Insane" could be thought of as "Unhindered by reality
By expectations, by The Man's limitations"
