It's Not Unusual
Menace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not unusual to be loved by anyone
It's not unusual to have fun with anyone
But when I see you hanging about with anyone
It's not unusual to see me cry, I wanna die

It's not unusual to go out at any time
But when I see you out and about it's such a crime
If you should ever want to be loved by anyone
It's not unusual it happens every day no matter what you say

You'll find it happens all the time
Love will never do what you want it to
Why can't this crazy love be mine?

It's not unusual to be mad with anyone
It's not unusual to be sad with anyone




But if I ever find that you've changed at anytime
It's not unusual to find out I'm in love with you
