'I’m tired of watching all this bad news now' - Your Letters: March 4

I WANT TO GET BACK TO NORMAL
When’s it all gonna get back to normal?
Ok, I’m tired of watching all this bad news now
When’s the news gonna get back to normal?
I’m tired of knives. And all these terrible lives
When’s the news gonna get back to normal?
I’m tired of the soaps that don’t show any hope
When are the soaps gonna get back to normal?
And I’m tired of songs that seem to encourage doing wrong
When are songs gonna get back to normal?
I’m tired of ‘stand ups’ who just talk of their hang ups
When’s comedy gonna get back to normal?
And the films they’re all rot. They no longer have plots
When are films gonna get back to normal?
And you go into town and all the shops are shut down
When are towns gonna get back to normal?
I don’t feel normal about any of this.
When am I gonna get back to normal?
