I know a curious little boy,
He’s always asking Why;
Why this, why that, why then, why now,
Why not, why, why, why, why?
Why this, why that, why then, why now,
Why not, why, why, why, why?
He wants to know why wood should swim,
When lead and marbles sink?
Why stars should shine, and winds should blow,
And why we eat and drink?
Why stars should shine and winds should blow,
And why we eat and drink?
He wants to know why fish have gills,
And why we cannot fly,
Why steam comes from the kettle spout,
And rain falls from the sky?
Why steam comes from the kettle spout,
And rain falls from the sky?
