The Logical Song
----------------
Breakfast in America
Supertramp

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,
joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
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 what we've learned
	I know it sounds absurd
	but please tell me who I am.

Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable,
respectable, presentable, a vegetable!

	At night, when all the world's asleep,
	the questions run so deep
	for such a simple man
	Won't you please, please tell what we've learned
	(Can you hear me?)
	I know it sounds absurd
	(Won't you help me?)
	but please tell me who I am.
