![]() I meet all of the requirements, as I am deeply in love you with. What if you wanted someone to love you? Heck, I could fill that role. Did you know that you can go out and about at any time because this is a free country? Isn’t that swell? Anyway, if I see you on the streets I get angry because I am in love with you and you don’t seem to love me back or be aware of my existence in any way. Hey, things got a bit heavy back there so I’m just going to soften the blow a little. If you should ever wanna be loved by anyone” Lol.īut when I see you out and about it’s such a crime I am willing and able to die at a moment’s notice if you turn me down. Look, if I can’t be with you, I want to die. Real men cry real tears at this kind of thing. Honestly, I could go on a killing spree when I’m in that mind frame, but I don’t want to weird you out so I’m going to sugar coat it and pretend that it makes me cry. I go nuts, I feel urges that no one should ever feel. Every single time I see you with another person, it makes my blood boil. ![]() It’s me, I’m the person that’s in love with you and I need to tell you something. “But when I see you hanging about with anyoneĪlright, I’ll level with you. Oh, by the way, you could even end up having a lot of fun with that person, whomever they may be. Should you find yourself in a position in the near future where someone confesses their undying love for you, please do not panic. Nothing to be alarmed at here, I am just a regular man telling you that someone being cripplingly in love with you is an entirely normal thing to happen. It’s not unusual to have fun with anyone” Now then, let’s ruin this song for everyone. I just want them to entertain the possibility that this beloved song has got some troubling lyrics behind it. I’m not here to anger the tens of Tom Jones fans that get Google alerts every time an article that mentions his name is published. ‘It’s Not Unusual’ is a perfectly delightful song, I’d like to make my stance very clear from the outset. It’s also got some deeply troubling lyrics that merit some questioning a cool 54 years later. The song was catchy, melodic and an indisputable ear worm. In 1964, Les Reed and Gordon Mills penned a song that would send Tom Jones skyrocketing to international stardom.
