Why does the wind blow, blow, blow?
Why does the rooster crow, crow, crow?
Why does the weed grow, grow, grow?
I know you don't know, know, know.

Why do the nations fight, fight, fight?
Why can't we make wrongs right, right, right?
Why does evil like night, night, night?
I know you don't know, know, know.

Why do we have to have cars, cars, cars?
Who cares if there is life on Mars, Mars, Mars?
What's the appeal of chocolate bars, bars, bars?
I know you don't know, know, know.

Why do days pass so fast, fast, fast?
And we tend to live in the past, past, past
As we know that today might not last, last, last.
I know you don't know, know, know.

Why have we been given a soul, soul, soul?
And there still awaits a goal, goal, goal
Beyond that earthly hole, hole, hole.
I think for sure that I know, know, know.
