(Verse)
Funny, the thoughts I have at night
So different from the thoughts I have by day
The moment Mama switches off the light
A thousand different questions come my way
And stay
(Chorus)
Who am I?
Was it all planned in advance
Or was I just born by chance
In July?
Oh, who on Earth am I?
Did I ever live before
As a mountain lion or
As a fly?
My friends only think of fun
They're all such incurable tots
Can I be the only one
Who thinks these mysterious thoughts?
Someday I'll die
Will I ever live again
As a rooster or a hen
Or a lion in a den
Or a robin or a wren
Or a fly?
Oh, who am I?
