The Logical Song by 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 (1)________ they send 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 (2)________ we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please (3)________ me who I am.

Now (4)__________ what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you (5)________ up your name, we'd like to (6)________ you're
acceptable, respecable, presentable, a vegtable!

At night, (7)________ all the world's asleep,
the questions run so 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.
