I've read Francis Bacon and studied the bible
And learned and enlightened and knowing
The triumph of logic and science is vital
For keeping man's mastery growing
I know without a doubt
That reason can find out how things are going
I trust in education
And yet I am at my wit's end
What defies all explanation
I refuse to understand
Dear lord how can it be
It's baffling me
You gave us science and good sense
To save us all from hell
How can it be that all the rules
Of a reason and society
Are undone by music's magic spell

A child can be trained to do things that are awesome
The key is a good education
The gift is a seed
If you want it to blossom
It certainly needs cultivation
Although it's clear to me
Seeing the mystery
I can't play possum
Every work needs some correction
There are flaws in everyone
Here is absolute perfection
And I don't know how it's done

Dear lord how can it be
It's baffling me
You gave us science and good sense
To save us all from hell
How can it be that all the rules
Of a reason and society
Can be undone by music's magic spell

How can it be
That all the rules of a reason and society
Can be undone
By such an arrogant impertinent disorderly discourteous anomaly,
Tenacious MISCHIEF-MAKER
And by music's magic spell
