HOOK:

Why is it more that things change the more they stay the same?

Why do old people drive slow in the fast lane?

Why is it when I grab the mic you stare at me strange?



Why's every time I eat I get my shirt stained? (dang!)

Wassup Tremaine, what, your name's Wayne?

Dang man, why can't I just remember people's names?

All the same there's a question in my mind

Why do I have to wait in line just to wait in another line

And when I think I'm done I gots to do it one more time?

Why oh why am I always stuck behind

The lady who has writes a check in the express check out line?

Excuse me miss, it's 10 items not 99.

Why do most rappers they just spit the same rhymes?

Why do girls go to the bathroom at the same time?

Why when something's wrong I just say I'm fine?

But why ask why when I ask it all the time?



CHORUS:

Why is the grass green? Why's the sky blue?

Why oh why do I do what I do?

Can you please tell me why that is cause I don't have a clue?

Now why is that? I was about to ask you.

Why am I me? and why are you you?

Why do we run in circles chasing after nothing new?

Somebody won't you please tell me why because I haven't got a clue?

Yo why is it my man? I was about to ask you.



(Soulheir the manCHILD)

Why do the voices in my head get louder when I try to sleep?

Why can't I seem to count all the leaping sheep?

I'm knee deep in distribution, retail, paperwork, and e-mail.

Why can't I afford a secretary to handle office detail?

Why are prices high, water wet, people cruel?

Why does every single record exec try to play me for the fool?

Why don't bar stools have backs? Do they want the drunks to fall off?

And why do we have to fill up all the precious silence wit
