I wish I knew, I wish I knew
|
what makes me, me, and what makes you, you.
|
It's just another point of view, ooo.
|
A state of mind I'm going through, yes.
|
So what I see is never true, ahhh.
|
|
I wish I could tell, I wish I could tell
|
what makes a heaven what makes a hell.
|
And do I get to ring my bell, ooo.
|
Or land up in some dusty cell, no.
|
While others reach the big hotel, yeah.
|
|
I wish I had, I wish I had
|
the secret of good, and the secret of bad.
|
Why does this question drive me mad? ahhh.
|
'Cause I was taught when but a lad, yes,
|
That bad was good and good was bad, ahhh.
|
|
I wish I knew the mystery of
|
that thing called hate, and that thing called love.
|
What makes the in-between so rough? ahhh.
|
Why is it always push and shove? ahhh
|
I guess I just don't know enough, yes.
