13 ContributorsThe Logical Song Lyrics Mindless Self Indulgence’s cover of Supertramp’s 1979 hit “The Logical Song” off of the album Breakfast In America Ahh, Ahh, Ahh When I was young It seemed that life was so wonderful Oh, a miracle Oh, it was beautiful, magical And all the birds in the trees Well, they were singing so happily J-j-j-joyfully Oh, playfully watching me But-But-But-But-But-But then they sent me away To teach me how to be sensible L-l-l-logical Oh, responsible, practical And then they showed me a world Where I could be dependable C-c-c-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 But please tell me who I am Now watch what you say Or they'll be calling you a radical A l-l-liberal Oh, fanatical, criminal Oh, won't you sign up your name? We'd like to feel you're acceptable R-r-respectable Oh, presentable, a vegetable Take it, take it, take it, yeah! But at night When 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 Who I am Who I am Who I am L-l-l-l-l-l-logical! C-c-c-criminal! R-r-r-r-r-respectable! Ooh! Oh, Logical, oh!
