One Normal Night

They're normal people
Not like you
Not like me
Please can't we be an average family!

One normal night
That's all I want
That's all I need from you
One normal house
Without a mouse
To feed a plant or two

You must admit we're not what people call, "laid back"
So, can't we muse a bit and lose the basic black?

Whoa, one normal night
With normal people on their way
Just one normal night

Whaddaya say?
One normal night?
To be polite
To do the least you can

One normal eve?

Can you achieve a kind of common man?

You have to swear to me
Yes, promise to the core
It's almost six o'clock
They're almost at the door!
On all the Addams ancestors
Who've ever walked aright
One normal night!

Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo da-doo doo doo

Wait!
This is where I first saw her!
Wednesday, with a crossbow
And she looked like Diana The Huntress!

Who?

He's just expressing himself, dear
"Expressing is the poet's art. Just simply say what's in your heart"

Lucas, your mother's rhyming again
I say we take a rain check and go back to the hotel

No!
One normal night
No, not one poem
Not one inspiring word
One normal scene
Complete routine
Tonight can't be absurd

Please don't embarrass me
Or be completely rude
Don't make a fuss about the house
About the food

Whoa! One normal night
I know it's big, but can't you see?
This one normal night is for me!

Oh, he seems like a nice young man!

(They're not right for each other)

Not right for eachother?! What do you mean, "Not right for each other"?
Was Napoleon right for Josephine?
Was nausea right for Dramamine?
Were the 80's right for the drum machine
Who's to say?
Who's to say?

Was ballet right for Balanchine?
Was Polio right for the Salk vaccine?
Were you folks right for the mezzanine?
Who's to say?

One normal night, is a perilous trick
Normal is hard to attain
Children are crazy and parents are quick
Passions are hard to explain
But this is their moment and this is your chance
So, if you don't want to remain

Start singing of love (what?)

Love (no!)

Love! (Why?)

Love (ugh)

Only affairs of the heart
Your turn!

Bringing them love (yes!)

Love (yes!)

Love (right!)

Love (good!)

Love lets your spirits depart
So, let the normalcy start!

Protect and rally round
Let's aid them and abet
One normal night is what they'll

Get!

One normal night
One normal night
One normal night
Wednesday wants

One normal night
One normal night
One normal night
Give her just

One normal night
One normal night
One normal night
Wednesday wants

One

One

One

One

All I want (one normal night)
All I ask (we'll comprehend)

We'll tend her every need

When we arrive
We'll come alive
To make this night succeed

Just be respectable
Don't make an odd remark

Okay, okay

Keep undetectable our passion for the dark

Just as you say

And then it's paradise
Right here in Central Park

In one normal
Informal
One normal
Night!
