Why Do I? Lyrics by Vilray

Why Do I? / I Can’t Go to Sleep

2017

Each darling songbird above
Sings songs without singing of love
The tiger and the lion
Don't need shoulders to cry on
So why do I?
Clams, to my knowledge, don't sigh
And owls ain't left wondering "why?"
Each time their fella flies out
They needn't weep their eyes out
So why do I?
The Bible taught: Man calls the shots
For every beast and bird
But I've listened hard in my backyard
And this is what I've heard
Bees don't want flowers who shout
And lies won't win love from the trout
The saddest armadillo
Don't cry into his pillow
So why do I?
[Whistling Solo]
The Bible taught: Man calls the shots
For every beast and bird
But I've listеned hard in my backyard
And this is what I've heard:
Bees don't want flowеrs who shout
And lies won't win love from the trout
The saddest armadillo
Don't cry into his pillow
So why do I?
So why do I?
