The Logical Song lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus 1]

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

But please, tell me who I am

[Verse 2]

I said, now watch what you say or they'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, take, take it, yeah

[Chorus 2]

But at night, when all the world's asleep

The questions run so deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please (Won't you tell me)

Please tell me what we've learned?

(Can you hear me?) I know it sounds absurd

(Won't you help me?) But please, tell me who I am

Who I am

Who I am

Who I am

Oh!

[Outro]

'Cause I was feeling so illogical

D-d-d-d-d-d-digital

Yeah, one, two, three, five

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Ooh, it's getting unbelievable

Yeah

B-b-bloody marvelous
