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 me 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 too deep
For such a simple man
Won´t you please,please tell me what we´ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am, who I am ,who I am
