Why must we tell them why?
Some require an explanation for
Why we make the things we make
Why rules must break, and for whose sake

But why must we tell them why?
Why excuse each deviation? Why
Must we serve them prix fine art
Or prove each part (art a la carte)?

Look, all we're saying is
Look. All we're saying is
All we're saying is
Look. Look:[ALEX]
 
Hold-
 
Still-
 
And focus-
 
 [BEN & JAY]
(Think, and you'll miss it.)
 
(Think, and you'll miss it.)
 
 
 
(Think, and you'll miss it
Wuh-oh-!)[JAY]
(Look closely.)
[BEN]
Why must we justify?
Let's defy their forms and fixtures, not
Playing by their rules of thumb. Gots
To become a little numb-[ALEX]
And beat dat drum-
 
Make 'em see where we're coming from
 
See, all we're asking is
See
 
 
 
 
 
See:
 
Hold-
 
 
 
Still-
 
 
 
And focus-
 
 [JAY]
Make something dumb-
Make 'em see where we're coming from
 
 
 
 
 
All we're asking is
 
 
 
 
 
 
(Think, and you'll miss it.)
 
(Think, and you'll miss it.)
 
(Think, and you'll miss it
Wuh-oh!)[BEN]

Who's to say
What it ought to be?
 
It is what it is
And it is what it's got to be
It is what it is
And it is what it's got to be
 
 
Why must we tell them why?
 
 
 
 
See:[OTHERS]
Ooh
 
Or it not to be?
 
 
It is what it is
And it is what it's got to be
 
Why must we tell them why?
 
See. All we're asking is...
All we're asking is
See:
