[Verse 1]
I got ideas, but I don't know it all
And when I speak, you know my voice is small
And when I'm walking down the street
I never smile at folks I meet
'Cause I know they won't smile at me
Now ask yourself why this should be

[Chorus]
But if you want the answers (If you want the answers)
If you want the answers, don't ask me
If you want the answers (If you want the answers)
If you want the answers, don't ask me
D-d-don't ask me

[Verse 2]
I got feelings, but they don't count for much
And I shake my fist, but I got no power as such
But if I tell you what I see
Don't throw my words right back at me
'Cause I can't shout and I can't moan
'Cause I got problems of my own

[Chorus]
And if you want the answers (If you want the answers)
If you want the answers, don't ask me
If you want the answers (If you want the answers)
If you want the answers, don't ask me
D-d-don't ask me
[Bridge]
Someday soon, gotta learn enough
To justify my actions
Until then, I want you all to try
And share my gut reactions
Gut reactions

[Chorus]
If you want the answers (If you want the answers)
If you want the answers, don't ask me
If you want the answers (If you want the answers)
If you want the answers, don't ask me
D-d-don't ask me
D-d-don't ask me
D-d-don't ask me
