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
