The Logical Song by The Holophonics 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 quеstions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, plеase tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd
Please, tell me who I am
[Verse 2]
I said, now what would you say now that we're calling you a radical
A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal
Oh, 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
[Instrumental bridge]
[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
(Why don't you help me?) Please tell me who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
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 quеstions run too deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please, plеase tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd
Please, tell me who I am
[Verse 2]
I said, now what would you say now that we're calling you a radical
A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal
Oh, 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
[Instrumental bridge]
[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
(Why don't you help me?) Please tell me who I am
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
