The Logical Song (Live) by Roger Hodgson

When I was young
It (1)____________ 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) (2)__________________ watching me
But (3)________ they sent me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical
(Oh) responsible, practical
And (4)________ 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 tell me what we've learned?
I know it sounds absurd
Please tell me who I am

I say, now (5)__________ what you say
Or they'll be calling you a radical
A liberal
(Oh) fanatical, criminal
(Oh) won't you sign up (6)________ name?
We'd like to feel you're acceptable
Respectable
(Oh) presentable, a vegetable
(Whoa) take it, take it, take it (yeah)

But at (7)__________ when all the world's asleep
The questions run so deep
For such a (8)____________ man

Won't you please
Please tell me what we've learned?
I (9)________ 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
...
