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.

Now that I can

Release my tensions

Let me make clear

My best intentions

Girls ask and I

define decision

Boys ask and I

describe their function

Oh the boys

want to talk

Like to to talk about those problems

And the girls

say they're concerned

And they are

concerned with these decisions

And it's all

Hard Logic

To follow and the

Girls get lost

And the boys

say they're concerned

But they are

concerned with these decisions

I wanna talk

I wanna talk as much as I want

I'm gonna give

I'm gonna give the problem to you

I wanna talk

I wanna talk as much as I want

I'm gonna give

I'm gonna give the problem to you

Decide, decide

Make up your mind

Decide, decide

I told you what to say

Confuse, confuse

Describe what I found

Confuse, confuse

I told you what to say

Oh the girls

Still want to talk

Want to talk about those problems

And the boys

say they're concerned

But they are concerned with these decisions

And it's all

Hard Logic

I know

and the girls get lost

And the boys

say they're concerned

And they are concerned with these decisions

I wanna talk

I wanna talk as much as I want

I'm gonna give

I'm gonna give the problem to you

I wanna talk

I wanna talk as much as I want

I'm gonna give

I'm gonna give the problem to you

Decide, decide

Make up your mind

Decide, decide

I told you what to say

Confuse, confuse

Describe what I found

Confuse, confuse

I told you what to say
