Norm
Embrace Individuality with Hoity-Toity's "Norm" - Break Free from Conformity!
Lyrics
Everybody's the same
Expressing frustration with the lack of individuality; everyone is perceived as being alike.
Same hair, even the same name
Noticing similarities even in physical appearance, suggesting a conformity in identity.
Buy clothes at the same stores
Criticizing the tendency to shop at mainstream stores, conforming to popular fashion trends.
Name brands, big price tags, scared to wear off-brands
Commenting on the preference for expensive, well-known brands and the fear of wearing lesser-known or off-brand items.
We're cutting our hair to fit in
Describing the act of altering oneself, including physical appearance, to fit societal norms.
Becoming more and more thin
Highlighting the pressure to conform to a certain body image, striving to be thinner.
We're following the same line thinking it makes us more alive
Observing a collective mindset that follows a prescribed path, believing it brings vitality.
Don't give me the norm
Rejecting the idea of conforming to societal norms.
Don't give me the norm, save it
Reiterating the rejection of the norm and expressing a desire to avoid it.
I don't like the norm
Explicitly stating a dislike for conformity and societal norms.
No I don't like the norm, please save it, I hate it
Emphasizing the aversion to societal norms and a plea to avoid them, expressing strong dislike.
So you're a little bit off
Suggesting that being a little different or unconventional is preferable to pretending to be someone else.
It's much better than trying to be something you're not
Encouraging authenticity, asserting that being oneself is better than pretending to fit in.
And bragging's not your thing, and neither is what's in
Indicating that boasting is not a characteristic, and neither is conforming to societal expectations.
But you find it so hard to try to fit in
Expressing the difficulty of trying to conform while not being inclined to do so.
You start to realize that you're the prize
Realizing one's own value and uniqueness in the process of not conforming.
Don't give me no fake lies just to get by
Rejecting insincere or false statements aimed at getting by or fitting in.
Don't give me the norm
