Ladies and gentlemen, passengers and pets Please remain seated, don’t ask questions yet "West... West... Wait a minute!" There was a small disturbance, a curious event The lights went out and all the furniture bent What the heck was all that about? A marching band came through the house One man shouting, “Turn it down!” While another wore a paper crown The telephone began to sneeze The ceiling fan fell to its knees A stranger danced beside the sink And sold me tickets to the brink Did you see the flashing sign? Did you hear that little chime? Was it real or was it staged? Who put the moon inside the cage? Normal service will resume shortly Please don’t panic, please don’t worry Normal service will resume shortly Though it may not look that way Normal service will resume shortly Kindly form an orderly story Normal service will resume shortly Any minute, any day “Sunny with a chance of glue!” "A voice announced the weather!" The pigeons held a meeting and decided what to do The elevator went sideways, the radio spoke in tongues A tiny man in swimming trunks was singing through his lungs We tried to find the emergency, but every door led to a sea The captain said, “We’re nearly there” Then disappeared into a chair! Did you catch the final clue? Was that me or was that you? Who unplugged the afternoon? Why’s there glitter in the room? Normal service will resume shortly Please don’t panic, please don’t worry Normal service will resume shortly Though it may not look that way Normal service will resume shortly Kindly form an orderly story Normal service will resume shortly Any minute, any day Attention, please. The situation is under control. Unfortunately, control has left the building. Please collect your belongings... And any belongings belonging to you. What was that? I don’t know! Where did it go? I don’t know! Who was in charge? I don’t know! Was it supposed to happen? Probably so. Now the clocks all point to Tuesday and the floor is wearing shoes The mayor’s in the cupboard giving interviews There’s a choir in the kitchen, there’s a drumbeat in the wall Someone keeps repeating, "It was nothing much at all." But the windows won’t stop winking and the hallway’s growing hair If this is how we fix things, I would rather leave them there Normal service will resume shortly Please don’t panic, please don’t worry Normal service will resume shortly That’s what everybody says Normal service will resume shortly Kindly form an orderly story Normal service will resume shortly After several minor delays Thank you for your patience Thank you for your time Please ignore the sirens They are perfectly in rhyme Normal service will resume shortly Normal service will resume Normal service will resume shortly What the heck was all that about?
