| I wonder how many times you've been had | |
| And I wonder how many plans have gone bad | |
| I wonder how many times you had sex | |
| I wonder do you know who'll be next | |
| I wonder l wonder wonder I do | |
| I wonder about the love you can't find | |
| And I wonder about the loneliness that's mine | |
| I wonder how much going have you got | |
| And I wonder about your friends that are not | |
| I wonder I wonder I wonder I do | |
| I wonder about the tears in children's eyes | |
| And I wonder about the soldier that dies | |
| I wonder will this hatred ever end | |
| I wonder and worry my friend | |
| I wonder I wonder wonder don't you? | |
| I wonder how many times you been had | |
| And I wonder how many dreams have gone bad | |
| I wonder how many times you've had sex | |
| And I wonder do you care who'll be next | |
| I wonder I wonder wonder I do | |
| And you measure for wealth by the things you can hold | |
| And you measure for love by the sweet things you're told | |
| And you live in the past or a dream that you're in | |
| And your selfishness is your cardinal sin. | |
| And you want to be held with highest regard | |
| It delights you so much if he's trying so hard | |
| And you try to conceal your ordinary ways | |
| With a smile or a shrug or some stolen cliche. | |
| 'Cos emotionally you're the same basic trip | |
| And you know that I know of the times that you've slipped | |
| So don't try to impress me, you're just pins and paint | |
| And don't try to charm me with things that you ain't. | |
| And don't try to enchant me with your manner of dress | |
| 'Cos a monkey in silk is a monkey no less | |
| So measure for measure reflect on my said | |
| And when I won't see you then measure it dead. | |
| 'Cos don't you understand, and don't you look about | |
| I'm trying to take nothing from you | |
| So why should you act so put out for me? |
