"I want to tell you
one thing;
Listen to me,
I'm trying to tell
you that I'm better
than you,
I am only what I am"
"We must not stand
still,
For the night is
coming,
Every man, every
woman, every child,
Every boy and every
girl"
I hear only what I
want to hear
But, I have to
believe in something
Have to believe just one thing
I said, Father
Washington, you're
all mixed up,
Collecting sinners
in an old tin cup
Well, spare a listen
for a restless fool,
There's something
missing when I read
your rules
Well, hey there,
You tell me
you're a holy man
But, although I'm
just a beginner
Oh, I don't see you
as a winner
I said, Sister
Robinson, you're all
washed up,
Collecting teardrops
in a paper cup
If I could tell you
what you need to
know,
If I could help you
to get on with the
show
Oh Reverend
Ebenezer,
There's a storm in
my head,
Makes me hear what
you say;
Just was it true?
So, what have I to
do?
Well, what has he to
do?
Oh, what is there
to do?
Whoa, oh-oh-oh
[Child singing] "All creatures great
and small,
All things wise and
wonderful,
the Lord God made
them all"
Mary, oh, tell me
what I'm living for,
'Cause I feel like
I'm tossed in the
river,
Oh have you a son to
deliver?
I said, Father
Washington, you're
all mixed up,
Collecting sinners
in an old tin cup
You tell the
children what they
need to know,
But, will they
listen when it's
time to go?
Oh, Sister Robinson,
you're all washed
up,
Collecting teardrops
in a paper cup,
Can someone tell me
what I need to know?
Can someone help me
to get on with the
show?
