I'm gonna write some bubble-gum fluff That's gonna stain your heart I'm gonna learn to mock things Like love that is never true And instincts that are never right And I'm gonna learn to laugh At my own misfortune Laugh at my own big fortune Laugh at my own misfortune I'm going to steer myself around By my own tail And dizzy with the work put in I begin to see straight through a crooked eye I'm gonna say it all with ooh's and ah's To deliver my messages of renewal Like the summer rolling around again Like I blow out the candles On a seamless adventure Where no one travels anywhere And no one arrives But we scramble to do it one more time We scramble to do it one more time I'm gonna tell it to the mountain Sing it in the valley below I'm gonna sing my song I'm gonna let you know I'm gonna tell it to the mountain Sing it in the valley below I'm gonna sing my song I'm gonna let you know I'm gonna learn to speak in metaphors That don't make sense I'm gonna sing a simple song About the truth And them I'm gonna distort the facts And I'm gonna live my life inside a sound bite Bend the hook until the inflection is just right Don't ask me why Don't ask me why Don't ask me why I'm gonna learn to dodge a question Like a bullet So I can seem abstract and aloof Without really saying anything at all Perhaps, I'll pretend I'm deaf Like Reagan getting on an airplane Would you really think I was insane? Would you really think I knew anything About anything at all? Anything about it at all I'm gonna tell it to the mountain Sing it in the valley below I'm gonna sing my song I'm gonna let you know I'm gonna write some bubble-gum fluff That's gonna stain your heart I'm gonna sing it city to city Until it climbs up the charts And I'm gonna live my life Just how I planned On the rise And in demand Don't ask me why Don't ask me why Don't ask me why I'm gonna tell it to the mountain Sing it in the valley below I'm gonna sing my song I'm gonna let you know I'm gonna tell it to the mountain Sing it in the valley below I'm gonna sing my song I'm gonna let you know
