When I was a girl, my favorite thing   In the whole wide world   Was to see a field and   Run for no reason   And off I’d go, no one behind   Only earth below   Just a patch of green, green as the season      Don’t ask why, your feet just fly   Green and sky is all that you’re needin   Why ask why, when all that’s true   The sky is blue, blue for no reason      Now that things have changed   Everything’s carefully prearranged   Not a thing gets done   Except for a reason   Now I’m overrun, I’m startin to feel   Like a hired gun   Where’s the chance, where’s the fun   Where is the pleasin?       Try and try, you moan and sigh   You just can’t find a thing to believe in   Why ask why, when all that’s true   The sky is blue, blue for no reason      Don’t ask why, your feet just fly   Green and sky is all that you’re needin   Why ask why, when all that’s true   You’re just blue, blue for no reason
