Why do you ask, do you ask me why?nI live inside my head.nYou know this.nCroon to the tune of your own sweet sighsnI'll chant and chant and chant this anthemnnBeat on the walls and on the groundnTo hear the floor and feel the soundnDrink all da' moisture you can downnOf heaven's juice until you drownnnStitch up your lips with pins and pleasenNever never tell my secretsnWe are the ones without diseasenBut medicine is still much needednnBeat on the walls and on the groundnTo hear the floor and feel the soundnDrink all da' moisture you can downnOf heaven's juice until you drownnnWhy do you ask do you ask me why?nI live for the sounds and gain their wisdom.nCroon to the tune of your own sweet sighsnBeat on the drums 'til you grow numb.
