The 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
Oh joyfully, oh playfully, watching me

But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
Then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable (dependable)
Oh 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

I said, Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical (a radical)
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, oh, oh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

But at night, 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
Who I am

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

It's logical
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
So very logical
D-d-dependable (ooh, ooh, ooh)
It's logical

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, goodbye
So very logical (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Oh, logical
It's logical
D-d-dependable
