Side Show: Like Everyone Else - Voice
What are your dreams?
What are you longing for?
(Violet) I want to be like everyone else
So no one will point and stare
To walk down the street not attracting attention
No notice, no mention, no hint of dispair
A normal reaction
A standard response
The same as everyone wants
(Daisy) I want to be like everyone else
But richer and more acclaimed
Worshiped and celebrated
Pampered and loved
To see those who've laughed feeling ashamed
A glorious, frantic, adoring response
The same as everyone wants
I'd go abroad, see all the sights
Hear folks applaud
Bow to the lights
(Violet) I'd settle down
Never to roam
Find a nice husband and home
(Both) I want to be like everyone else
But not like my sister says
(Daisy) She wants stability
(Violet) She would like fame
I'd like serenity
(Daisy) Frenzied acclaim
(Both) Though we can't agree
On a single response
We want what everyone wants
Only what everyone wants
The same as everyone wants
What are you longing for?
(Violet) I want to be like everyone else
So no one will point and stare
To walk down the street not attracting attention
No notice, no mention, no hint of dispair
A normal reaction
A standard response
The same as everyone wants
(Daisy) I want to be like everyone else
But richer and more acclaimed
Worshiped and celebrated
Pampered and loved
To see those who've laughed feeling ashamed
A glorious, frantic, adoring response
The same as everyone wants
I'd go abroad, see all the sights
Hear folks applaud
Bow to the lights
(Violet) I'd settle down
Never to roam
Find a nice husband and home
(Both) I want to be like everyone else
But not like my sister says
(Daisy) She wants stability
(Violet) She would like fame
I'd like serenity
(Daisy) Frenzied acclaim
(Both) Though we can't agree
On a single response
We want what everyone wants
Only what everyone wants
The same as everyone wants
