When I was young, It Seemed That Life Was So Wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd Be singing so happily, oh
joyfully, oh playfully watching me.
But Then They sat me away to teach me how to Be sensible,
logical, oh responsible, practical.
And Then They Show Me a world Where I Could Be so dependable, oh
clinical, oh intellectual, cynical.
There Are Times When All the world's asleep, the questions
run too deep for Such a simple man.
Will not you please, please tell me what we've Learned
I know it sounds absurd But please tell me
who I am now
I Said They watch what you say'll be calling you a radical,
a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!
Oh Take it take it yeah!
But at night, when all the world's asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am,
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who knows who's so logical.
