Roger Hodgson
Logical Song
When I was young it seemedThat life was so wonderfulA miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magicalAnd all the birds in the treesWell, they'd be singing so happilyJoyfully, oh, playfully watching meBut then they sent me awayTo teach me how to be sensibleLogical, oh responsible, practicalAnd they showed me a worldWhere I could be so dependableClinical, oh intellectual, cynicalThere are times when all the world's asleepThe questions run too deepFor such a simple manWon't you pleasePlease tell me what we've learnedI know it sounds absurdBut please tell me who I amOh, watch what you sayOr they'll be calling you a radicalA liberal, oh fanatical, criminalOh, won't you sign up your nameSongtexteWe'd like to feel you're acceptableRespectable, presentable, and vegetableBut at night when all the world's asleepThe questions run too deepFor such a simple manWon't you pleasePlease tell me what we've learnedI know it sounds absurdBut please tell me who I am
