I Don't Know

I Don't Know
 Where does daytime go when I'm asleep at night?
 To the other side of the world. They're all in the light
 But how do they sleep at all if they've got sunshine in their eyes?
 They don't - they go to bed about the time you rise.
 If they sleep while I'm awake when do we talk to them?
 What time do they eat? How do we know when?
 Because if today here is tomorrow there, can that be so?
 I don't know.
 Were you as big as you are now when I was born?
 I've been this big a long time, that's why my face is worn.
 Yes, but were you ever little, and if so where was I?
 Yes I was but you weren't any where or any why.
 How could I be nowhere if I'm here today?
 Nothing is just nothing so who showed me the way?
 And if something comes from nothing, then what makes it grow?
 I don't know.
 Who's got all the answers if it isn't you?
 No one's got them all though some will say they do.
 If they try to fool me, then what should I say?
 You know if you're just polite they usually go away.
 What's the dumbest question that ever there could be?
 The only dumb ones are the ones that you don't ask of me.
 And the wisest answer's one you learned a long time ago.
 I don't know.
 Yeah, the wisest answer's one you learned a long time ago.
 I don't know.
