John Wesley Harding - The Speed Of Normal lyrics

I've lived my life backwards

Or Heaven knows I've tried

Hope I find my perfection before I die

Maybe once we were fantastic

Maybe once we were divine

Now we're flailing in the wake

Of progress passing by

At the speed of normal

Ever since you were the baby

You've been trying to grow up

But that's nothing that a therapist can cure

There's an unconfirmed report

Or could it be a cruel hoax

That death is just the punchline

To a tall tale told

At the speed of normal

So for everyone who's anyone

And you know who you are

Hope you don't drop behind in the hundred yards war

The winners and the losers

Overtaken in the end

By their very shadows

Taking the last bend

At the speed of normal
