Supertramp The Logical Song song lyrics

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, playfully watching me

But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,

Logical, oh responsible, practical

And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,

Oh clinical, oh 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, watch what you say or they'll be calling you 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, take it take it yeah

But at night, when all the world's asleep,

The questions run so deep

For such a simple man

Won't you please tell me what we've learned

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am

'Cause I was feeling so logical

D-d-digital

One, two, three, five

Oh, oh, oh, oh

It's getting unbelievable
