Rhyme and reason, reason and rhyme
We ask the old man what is the time
The time he said I do not know
The clock stopped working sometime ago
What a disaster was our reply
We don't know if its one o'clock or half past five
The man kept talking things were fine
Looking to the sky, he said the time was for
Reason and rhyme
Reason and Rhyme, rhyme and reason
We asked the old lady what is the season
The season she said you can't be sure
The weather is strange, can't tell you anymore
Woh my god woh my god woh my god
What a thing we don't know if its
Summer autumn winter or spring
Then she said this may be pleasing
The time has come for rhyme and reason
Rhyme and reason and destination
We ask ourselves what is this nation
This place they say is no man's land
And terranaleous is written in the sand
So what with all these spaces
Why can't we be independent?
And combine the races
Well we will see what we can do
Like time and season
We will rhyme and reason
Reason and rhyme
