Why

Here is a thought for you to play with
Here is a thing for you to try
Tangible it isn't, but who cares my friend
All you want is to get high

Why?
Why?
Why?
Tell me

Walk down the streets that used to look blasé
Think of the things you used to do
Ask all the questions that you have inside
Notice all the answers and get high

Why?
Why?
Why?
Tell me

Why did they have to go?
It was silly, yes I know
Why did they have to change?
I want them to stay insane
Why did they leave this place
Just to join an endless race?
Why did they have to go?
I want them to see the show

Why?
Why?
Why?
Tell me

Ask all your friends if they have tried to change
Then ask a cop if he has too
Notice all the answers that you get returned
Finally you see they all are blue

Why?
Why?
Why?
Tell me

Why did they have to go?
It was silly, yes I know
Why did they have to change?
I want them to stay insane
Why did they leave this place
Just to join an endless race?
Why did they have to go?
I want them to see the show

Now you see that it is all a game
So try to play it to your best
Next time you see them just smile and say
Finally I know where you are at

Why?
Why?
Why?
Tell me

Why did they have to go?
It was silly, yes I know
Why did they have to change?
I want them to stay insane
Why did they leave this place
Just to join an endless race?
Why?
