Those Mysteries Lyrics

Why is there time
Why is there space
Why are there dogs and cats and trees and the human race

And why am I here and not over there
And why are there nuns
And why do they pray
And where do we go when we pass away
And why, when I ask my Dad does he say
Go ask your Mom or just go away

And O.K., I'll go away, but they won't go away

Chorus:

Those mysteries
Tomorrow I'll find out all I should know
Those mysteries
I don't even know what I don't even know
Those mysteries
They're hanging around and around and around and around

Why is there you
Why is there me
Why does my Mother kiss my Father occasionally
And why am I sore whenever I'm hit
And why is there France
And why is there Spain
And why am I here and why is there rain
And why when I ask my Dad does he say
Go ask your Mom or just go away

And O.K., I'll go away, but they won't go away

(Chorus)
