I can turn the most ordinaryMan in the world into a star. to proveMy point I am going to find the mostMundane little man and turn him intoCelebrity. hmm! this looks like aSuitably uninteresting house. I wonderIf theres anybody here with enoughStar quality? He presses the doorbell.Star:Hello. whats your name? Wife:Andrea.Star:Oh, thats a nice name. whats yourHusbands name? Wife:Norman.Star:His names norman. that soundsOrdinary enough. I would like you toJoin in a unique experiment with me.I am going to take normans place forA few days. I m going to research hisOrdinary dull little existence.Wife:Oh you cant come in now! the placeIs in a terrible mess!Star:That doesnt matter. I want you to actNormally. I want you to treat me as if iWere norman. I am going to sacrificeMy normal flamboyant life style andBecome ordinary, boring little normanFor a few days.Ordinary peopleIts like another world, being here with you,Its quite a trip for me, so this is reality.Im studying every movement, Im trying to learn the part,Now I want you to be natural, just relax and be as you are,cos its all for art, I want to observe the ordinary peopleTomorrow I shall become norman,I shall go to his office,Mix with his workmates.And if they ask any questionsI shall say Im doing research for one of my songs.Nomand and I are changing placesAnd Im going to make him a star,So Im throwing away my stage suit and Im packing away my guitar,For the sake of art Im gonna mix with the ordinary people.Star:God these pyjamas are awful!Wife:Awful? well all I can say is my norman wears them every night.Star:Alright, no sacrifice is too great for art!The things Ive done for music,The things Ive done for art.So Ill make these sacrifices and Ill take it like a starFor the sake of art I will mix with the ordinary people.Star:Youd better come to bed darling.Wife:Coming! youll never get up for work in the morning.Im making observations, and character simulations.Ill mix with his friends and relations,And hell be a part of me.ChorusHes changing places with norman,To get background for his songs.Im immortalising his lifeAnd Ill even sleep with his wife,For the sake of art Ill go to bed like the ordinary people.Turn out the light.Turn out the light.The star exchanges his silver stageSuit for normans pin stripe suit,Umbrella and briefcase. he forsakesHis customary brandy and cigars andSettles for a cup of hot chocolate beforeGoing to bed.
