Paroles de 'Good Old Regular Joe' par Fabio Mendonça

It was a plain old regular day when he came to be
He was born in natural birth and with regular weight
Besides those chubby chicks
He looked like all other kids
His dad took him home on Chevy
Laid him down on the crib

As a toddler he played with Legos and other regular toys
He had breakfast at seven just like all other boys
Besides those funny feet, he giggled like all other kids
His mom took him down to the park, push him down on the swing

At six he was ready to go a regular school
His teacher, a regular guy with that regular look
Besides a little twitch, he was just like other kids
His dad took him out trick or treat on the regular street

By ten he was ready to play on regular league
He tried for regular team of regular sport
Beside a minor limp, he ran just like all other kids
His coach sat him down on the bench gave him a long speech

As a teen he developed a crush on regular chick
He took her out on a date to a regular prom
In spite of his flat feet, they danced just like all other kids
His girl sat down on his lap just like all other chicks

By now he was ready to go a school of his choice
He packed and got out of the house just like all other boys
Besides a few little sips, he drank just like all other guys
His pals took him out to a bar, showed him how to get high

And so he graduated one day with strong Cs ad Ds
He went on to deliver a speech with some regular words
Besides a little lisp, he spoke like the rest of the class
His mates sang cheers for him. Hats up in the air!

By now he is ready to marry his school sweetheart
She found him a regular job on the nearest Walmart
Besides always calling sick, he worked just like one of the guys
His wife fixed dinner for him, baked him apple pie

So now his got kids of own and he is driving a Van
His kids who are not even five have a phone in their hands
Besides being always asleep, he yawns and scratches his head
His kids want to drive him insane just like all other men

Now old all he does care about is his 401K
He spends many days of week calculating his pay
Besides a small tattoo, he looks like any grand dude
His wife wants to have some fun, but he is not in the mood

Ten years went by since he joined on a new nursing home
Grandkids who have kids of their own call him up on the phone
Besides some missing teeth, and the frequent stops to pee
He still ties he shoes with one hand bent down on his knee

He died, didn’t want a cremation, so he is down on a grave
A voice tells him from above he’s turned into a haze
He thought they were pranking him, but noticed he could fly the wind
Now he haunts an old house in LA like a regular ghost

One day while he hovered about the creepy voice came to him
And said that he was running late, time to re-incarnate
He begged her not to go, 'cause he loved being a ghost
Please don’t turn me again into a regular Joe

It was a plain old regular day when she came be
She was born in natural birth and with regular weight
Besides those chubby chicks, she looked like all other kids
Her dad took her home on Tesla, laid her down on the crib
