Why?
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 are tortoiseshell cats only female
Because it was decided by God
Why does plants belch out CO2
Because it's just to live
Why are whales singin'
Because that's communication
Let's thinking now "why"
I have very soft brain
Certainly just start
From there, where, why?
Children have the age
The age of "why"
How long have I been
Can't ask for "why"
Why am I pretty
Because I love me
Why am I getting fat
Because chocolate is very sweet
Why am I love a man
Because just you, darlin'
Scales fall from my eyes
Let's look for the story like that
But I'm too troublesome
Children have the age of "why"
