The Hiking Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Why do you do the things you do?
Get up in the morning sun
Put on your shoes that don't fit
Get into the car and drive in vain
Why do you keep singing along
After everything you feel is wrong?
Take a hike up in the hills
It's high up, but what a thrill
You keep coming around
Why do you do the things you do?
Don't you see? Your concern is all on the ground
Let's take a hike up in the hills
It's high up, but what a thrill
