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 then they sent me away
But then they sent me away
To teach me how to be sensible
Logical, oh responsible, practical
And 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
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
Now watch what you say
Or they´ll be calling you a radical
A liberal, oh fanatical, criminal
Oh won´t you sign up your name
We´d like to feel you´re
Acceptable, respectable,
oh presentable, a vegetable!
At night when all the world´s asleep
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,
who i am...
who i am,
who i am,
who i am...

Who are you? Another pissed-off Democrat, unhappy about the chaos in your life, who cannot believe that lesser beings are running the country and having children.
Of course, I felt the exact same way about a lot of the democratic constituencies.
Oh well. Can't live with 'em; can't kill 'em.
the lesser beings... ? hmm, i mean it HAD t've been a repo who coined the phrase "the great unwashed"... no... ?
but again (if u'd only pay attention 4 once, counselor), i haven't been a democrat since '90; before that i was republican...
try a third dimension in your arguments, the jury's noddin'...
I know the guy who wrote this song... would love to see him play again..
Hmm I love the idea behind this website, very unique.
