Logical Song

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

Joyfully, playfully watching me

But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible

Logical, responsible, practical

And then they showed me a world

Where I could be so dependable

Clinical, intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world's asleep

The questions run too deep for such a simple man

Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned

I know it sounds absurd, please tell me who I am, who I am

Now watch what you say, or they'll be calling you a radical

Liberal, fanatical, criminal

Won't you sign up your name

We'd like to feel you're acceptable,

Respectable, presentable, vegetable

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, please tell me who I am

Who I am, who I am, who I am
