Sometimes a change is an upgrade
For a better existence we crave
And thus we now live in a warm house
And don’t shiver inside a damp cave
Or maybe we tire of fashion
And yearn for a day very soon
When we cast off the custom of corsets
For breeches and pantaloons
The new normal might come some gusto
That’s embraced with an unbridled glee
Ditch gramophone records and big bands
As we rush to get colour TVs
Other times change is unwelcome
Its just something we have to embrace
Politics, illness, bad neighbours
Or wearing a mask on our face
Our life will have only one constant
Which I shall now pass on to you
The only thing certain and for certain
Is the change that we have to live through
It might not be something we long for
But before long it will stop being new
To have a new normal is normal
Because its normal to have something new
