A Puzzlement - Darren Mcgavin

作词：Oscar Hammerstein Ii

作曲：Richard Rodgers

I do not know

I am not sure

I am not sure of anything

When I was a boy

World was better spot

What was so was so

What was not was not

Now I am a man

World have changed a lot

Some things nearly so

Others nearly not

There are times I almost think

I am not sure of what I absolutely know

Very often find confusion

In conclusion I concluded long ago

In my head are many facts

That as a student I have studied to procure

In my head are many facts

Of which I wish I was more certain I was sure

Is a puzzlement

Shall I join with other nations in alliance

If allies are weak am I not best alone

If allies are strong with power to protect me

Might they not protect me out of all I own

Is a danger to be trusting one another

One will seldom want to do what other wishes

But unless someday somebody trust somebody

There'll be nothing left on earth excepting fishes

There are times I almost think

Nobody sure of what he absolutely know

Everybody find confusion

In conclusion he concluded long ago

And it puzzle me to learn

That tho' a man may be in doubt of what he know

Very quickly he will fight

He'll fight to prove that what he does not know is so

Oh oh

Sometimes I think that people going mad

Ah ah

Sometimes I think that people not so bad

But not matter what I think

I must go on living life

As leader of my kingdom I must go forth

Be father to my children and husband to each wife

Etcetera etcetera and so forth

If my Lord in Heaven Buddha show the way

Everyday I try to live another day

If my Lord in Heaven Buddha show the way

Everyday I do my best for one-more day

But is a puzzlement
