[Verse 1]
All we ever wanted
Was to know how to shake off every impulse
Looking up evolution's skirt
To see what the future will bring
The stink that smacks the nostrils
Tracks down it's origin in reason
Somehow we just can't help but feel
The beat of the wrong guy
[Chorus]
Everything seems to work fine
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
Everybody's feeling alright
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
[Verse 2]
The answer's gone to waste
The question is wrapped in hesitation
But all the handshakes in the world
Couldn't grasp why this is absurd
Every time this happens
Some representative of instinct
Slips you his buisiness card and leaves you
To figure out what it means
This sinking feeling
That there's more than meets the eye
You just have to wonder why
You just have to wonder why
[Chorus]
Everything seems to work fine
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
Everybody's feeling alright
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
[Bridge]
This sinking feeling
That there's more than meets the eye
You just have to wonder why
You just have to wonder why
[Chorus]
Everything seems to work fine
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
Everybody's feeling alright
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
[Chorus, repeated]
Everything seems to work fine
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
Everything seems to work fine
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
Everything seems to work fine
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
Everybody's feeling alright
But something doesn't compute
It does not compute
