THE LOGICAL SONG - SUPERTRAMP

When I was young it seemed that life was so wonderful
a miracle oh was beautiful magical
and all the birds in the trees
they'd singing so happily oh joyfully
oh playfully watching me

But then they sent me away
teach me how to be sensible logical oh responsible practical
and then 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 mind
won't you please please tell me what's the word
I know it sounds absurd please tell me who I am

I said what would you say 'bout me calling you a radical 
a liberal oh fanatical criminal  
won't you sign up your name we'd like to be your acceptable
respectable oh presentable a vegetable

Oh take take take it yeah

But at night when all the world's asleep
the questions run so deep for such a simple mind
won't you please please tell me what's the word
I know it sounds absurd please tell me who I am
who I am who I am who I am.
