What's It All Supposed to Mean?
Tell me what's happening to this world
I've just seen pictures of a girl
Lying half-naked in a stream
She was so full of life
Yet in one moment killed by a knife
Will somebody tell me what's it all supposed to mean?
Sign on the door says, go away
Sign on the grass says, you will pay
Dearly if on it, you are seen
Ask your neighbor's the time
They'll close their curtains, pull down the blinds
Will somebody tell me
What's it all supposed to mean?
You can say what you like
About riding a bike
It does ring a bell, at least
Why provide cars that break
Every law we make
Which in turn destroys the very air we breathe
You can say what you like
About goodbyes
They boost tissue sales at least
I don't know anyone
Whose love has gone
Who does not require vast amount of these
A clip round the ear, it must be said
Never hurt anyone, instead
Taught you a lesson you've not seen
And yet do that today
You could so easily be put in jail
Will somebody tell me what's it all?
Will somebody tell me what's it all?
Will somebody tell me what's it all supposed to mean?
I've just seen pictures of a girl
Lying half-naked in a stream
She was so full of life
Yet in one moment killed by a knife
Will somebody tell me what's it all supposed to mean?
Sign on the door says, go away
Sign on the grass says, you will pay
Dearly if on it, you are seen
Ask your neighbor's the time
They'll close their curtains, pull down the blinds
Will somebody tell me
What's it all supposed to mean?
You can say what you like
About riding a bike
It does ring a bell, at least
Why provide cars that break
Every law we make
Which in turn destroys the very air we breathe
You can say what you like
About goodbyes
They boost tissue sales at least
I don't know anyone
Whose love has gone
Who does not require vast amount of these
A clip round the ear, it must be said
Never hurt anyone, instead
Taught you a lesson you've not seen
And yet do that today
You could so easily be put in jail
Will somebody tell me what's it all?
Will somebody tell me what's it all?
Will somebody tell me what's it all supposed to mean?
