What's a Mystery?

Why do key holes have no keys

Why do fairies have no tales

Can I dial the numbers please

Which is best, boys or girls

What’s a mystery?

 

If I had another Mum

Would I be another child

If I had another Dad

Where would my old daddy be

What’s a mystery?

 

Where do grown ups put the child

That they say that they used to be

Where did my Mummy find my Dad

In the old days was I really

Just a little seed

When you die does it make you sad

What’s a mystery?

 

How many miles is far away

Why does daddy stop at lights

Doesn’t daddy know the way

What is left and is it right

What’s a mystery?

 

When we get to holidays

Will I be asleep

Is Blackpool in London or Japan

Is that baby lamb out there

The same as we had for tea

Why is everybody getting mad

What’s a mystery?

 

Why do grannies dress in lace

Why must children go to bed

Am I in the human race

Is my mind in my head

What’s a mystery?

 

Must you still do as you are told

Even if you cry

Why is everybody getting mad

If you pray to Heaven

can you do just what you like

Does He love you even if you’re bad

What’s a mystery?
