Lyrics
I can't believe what is happening to me
I am experiencing something unbelievable.
My head is spinning (Spinning)
I feel disoriented or overwhelmed.
The flowers and the trees are encapsulating me
Nature is surrounding me; I am deeply immersed.
And I go spinning (Spinning)
I continue to feel disoriented or overwhelmed.
He was the baby of the class you know
A person, perhaps young or naive, lacks basic knowledge.
He really didn't know that one and one was two
Reiteration of the person's lack of fundamental knowledge; emphasizing their innocence.
Two and two were four
-He was the baby of the class you know
-He really didn't know that
-Really didn't know that
-Oh what a poor soul
An expression of sympathy or pity for the person's lack of understanding.
Oooh, do we not sail on the ship of fools
Reflecting on life's journey, possibly expressing a sense of foolishness or being misled.
Oooh, why is life so precious and so cruel
-I close my eyes and I try to imagine
Trying to understand or empathize with someone's dreams.
What you're dreaming
Wondering about the content of the person's dreams.
Why can't you see what you're doing to me
Expressing the impact of someone's actions on the speaker.
My world is spinning (Spinning)
Feeling emotionally overwhelmed; the world seems chaotic.
He was the baby of the class you know
Repeating the theme of someone's innocence and vulnerability, highlighting the suffering.
He really didn't know that one and one was two
-Two and two were four
-You were the baby of the class you know
-You were so young and so uncertain
-Suffer little children
-Oh what a poor soul
-Oooh, do we not sail on the ship of fools
Questioning life's journey, pondering the preciousness and cruelty of life.
Oooh, why is life so precious and so cruel
-He was the baby of the class you know
Reiteration of the theme of innocence, uncertainty, and suffering.
He really didn't know that one and one was two
-Two and two were four
-He was the baby of the class
-He was so young and so uncertain
-Suffer little children
-Oh what a poor soul
-Oooh, do we not sail on the ship of fools
Continuing to question life's journey and its paradoxes.
Oooh, why is life so precious and so cruel
-Oooh, do we not sail on the ship of fools
Repeating the questioning of life's journey and its dual nature.
Oooh, why is life so precious and so cruel
-Oooh, do we not sail on the ship of fools
Further exploration of the paradox of life, sailing on the "ship of fools."
Oooh, why is life so precious and so cruel
-Oooh, do we not sail on the ship of fools
Final reflection on the precious yet cruel nature of life and the metaphorical ship of fools.
Oooh, why is life so precious and so cruel
