Jean-Michel Jarre, Yello - Why This, Why That and Why lyrics

[Jean-Michel Jarre, Yello - Why This, Why That and Why lyrics]

When I was thrown into this planet
I knew what's going on
I was messing with my pacifier all day long
Oh and I then I was twenty
And i didn't have a clue
I was messing with my days trying to be true
Trying to dig out the man that I could be
I was shouting loud to find this little me
He was stumbling through his days
What else then could he try
Looking for an answer

Why this? Why that?
And why?

Oh and I then i was thirty
I thought I knew what it was all about
Cruising in the river like a silver trout
Swimming in the ocean
Respected by the sharks
Overnight the ocean turned out to be


Too dark when I was diving deeper
There was no light no more
I couldn't find the way out
The ocean has no door
And all the things that happened
To pretty desperate guy
Leading to the question

Why this? Why that?
And why?

I started to shout louder
What is this all about?
Struggling up the river
Not even half-way proud
For all the things that happened
To this pretty desperate guy
Who was looking for an answer

Why this? Whay that?
And why?
