On A Normal Day

Post to Twitter

Is your day normal? What is normal? I thought about it a lot and the result – this “song”.
Read this post like you would read the lyrics of a song you have not heard yet. Put your own tune to it and maybe we will hear it on the radio someday. Who knows!

On a rocking chair in the front porch of my house
With a cold beer in my hand and a 6-pack by my side
I watch the sunset over the distant desert
In the middle of nowhere

No cars honking
No phones ringing
Just a band playing my favorite tunes
On a normal day

I walk over to the pool and up to a diving board 6ft high
With a cold beer in my hand and a 6-pack on the porch
I dive into the reflections of milky white clouds
A style I call “Drink and Dive”

No crowd cheering
No judges scoring
Just a band playing my favorite tunes
On a normal day

When I am done swimming the clouds of change
I get out to get dry and get dressed
To saddle up my noble steed and go riding
Still feeling high from all the drinking

At the snow-tipped mountains where eagles fly high
I get down to gear up and go hiking
On a trail that leads to a place called paradise
To lean against the oak tree and drift into sleep

Those noisy bells are ringing
Again and again and again

And I slowly wake up
To the fading sounds of my favorite tunes

No more sleeping
No more dreaming
Just enough time to get going

No beer drinking
No pool diving
No horse riding
No mountain hiking
No nothing

Just the radio playing some random tune
As I drive to work on a normal day
