lyrics

MR. SCIENTIST

Ba lab dab da da daba daba dab dai, Laba dab dei dei dai!

Here we come walking,
walking skins and bones.
After seeing what there is to see,
we´re wearing scientific crowns.

But I just want to sleep all day Mr. Scientist,
and I like my coffee strong.
You can go on explaining everything you like,
everything all day long.

But if you try and explain music to me,
why people dance, why people sing,
I´m gonna stick something up my ears,
and then I start to run.

Please Mr. Scientist,
don´t take our magic away.

Seeing children’s faces,
when the magician let´s something disappear,
and do we really want to know?
do you think raindrops are the same as tears?
I don´t want to count the years.

But I just want to sleep all day Mr. Scientist,
and I like my coffee strong.
You can go on explaining everything you like,
everything all day long.

But if you try and explain love to me,
why people touch, why people kiss,
why people care,
I´m gonna come and hug you all day long,
till you start to stare.

Please Mr. Scientist, don´t take our magic away.
