Lyrics:

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 sent me away to teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
And then they showed 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
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd, please tell me who I am

I said watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Now, won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable
Respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable

By the 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

'Cause I'm feeling so logical
1, 2, 3, 5
It's getting unbelievable
Bloody marvelous
