The Logical Song (Live) by Roger Hodgson
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
(Oh) playfully watching me
But (1)________ they sent me away
To (2)__________ 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 man
Won't you please
Please (3)________ me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd
Please tell me who I am
I say, now watch what you say
Or they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal
(Oh) fanatical, criminal
(Oh) won't you sign up (4)________ name?
We'd (5)________ to feel you're acceptable
Respectable
(Oh) presentable, a vegetable
(Whoa) take it, take it, take it (yeah)
But at (6)__________ when all the world's asleep
The questions run so deep
For such a simple man
Won't you please
Please tell me (7)________ we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am
Who I am (come one)
Who I am
Who I am (yeah)
...
'Cause I'm feeling so logical
...
(Oh) it's getting unbelievable
