[English]

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend that I'm love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

even if I can't help it

sober when I'm faded

permanent vacation

don't care if I'm jaded

done with all this faking

i'ma have to try no

I could walk a perfect line

I don't need no alibi

who's gonna sit by now

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I'll blame it if I can

drinking from the bottle

but it's just color green

getting fucked up real boring

so it's greener for the season

I don't wanna have to travel

could walk a perfect line

yeah I don't even wanna bother

come on let me sleep at night

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I've been if I can't help it

I've played it in the club

oh even if I can't help it

sober when I'm faded

permanent vacation don't care if I'm jaded

done with all this fakin' i'ma have to try

I don't need no alibi who's gonna sit by now

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna be tender

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs at the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

but not drinking from the bottle

but it's just kinda green

getting fucked up real boring

so it's greener for the season

I don't wanna have to travel

could walk a perfect line yeah I don't need no alibi

who's gonna sleep at night

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club

I don't wanna pretend I'm in love

don't wanna put out just for fun

I don't wanna be normal no more

I don't wanna take drugs in the club
