Lyrics
It begins to look as if people do not know
When they are right or wrong
Even after they have grown up
I've noticed that too
'Tis a puzzlement
When I left my father a little while ago
He seemed uncertain about many things
I don't believe grown ups are ever certain
They only talk as if they are certain
There are times I almost think they are not sure
Of what they absolutely know
I believe they are confused about conclusions
They concluded long ago
If my father and your mother are not sure
Of what they absolutely know
Can you tell me why they fight?
They fight to prove that what they do not know is so
Oh, sometimes I think that people going mad
Ah, sometimes I think that people not so bad
But no matter what I think
I must go on living life
And someday as a leader I must go forth
Be father to my children
And husband to each wife
Et cetera, et cetera, and so forth
If my lord in heaven Buddha show the way
Every day I try to live another day
If my lord in heaven Buddha show the way
Every day I do my best for one more day
But
Is a puzzlement
