Why? Why do these questions come to mind When the answer is just so far away? The questions I ask myself everyday
[Verse 1: Shaggy + J, back and forth] Why? Everytime I reach for the sky, I can only reach so high, Why? Why? Everytime I headbutt a brick wall, I always crack my skull, Why? Why? Everytime I stab somebody, I always get my clothes bloody, Why? Why? Everytime I drive down the wrong side of the street, everybody wanna beep, Why? Why? Everytime I bunk and I sell rock, I wind up in a cell block, Why? Why? Everytime I shoot somebody in the face, pigs give chase, Why? Why? Everytime I drink a little gasoline, I shit my splein, Why? Why? When I try to fly like a birdy, I wind up on a gurdy, dead tell me why
Won't you tell me why? Someone tell me why? Jesus tell me why? I must find out why
Why? Everytime I swallow a flathead nail, my neck feels stale, Why? they wanna break my mirrors, Why? Why? Everytime I choke a friend's neck, he don't come back, Why? Why? Everytime I stab my eyes with an icepick, I can't see shit, Why? Why? Everytime I play chicken with a train, it wins the game, Why? Why? Everytime I wake the dead up, they try to eat my head up, Why? Why? Everytime I see my reflection, I see no direction, Why? Why? Everytime I order a taco, you want a bite motherfucka?

Why? Everytime I raise my arms in celebration, player hation, Why? Why? Just cause I'm dead, decayed, and passed, Why? Everytime I chew on thumbtacks, I get blood on my snacks, Why? Why? Everytime I kick Faygos in the sky, you wanna know why!Why? Why? Why? Everytime an angel wanna kiss me, it always seems to miss me, Why? Why? Why does Shangri La seem so far away, you bettter leave today
NO MATTER WHY! (repeated over the chorus)
Tell me why, (you will tell me) Why? Tell me why, (have to tell me) Why? Tell me why, (you will tell me) Why? Tell me why, let me ask you
NO MATTER WHY! (repeated over the chorus)
