[Verse 1] I met a man who knew it all, He carried Truth inside a box. I asked him, “Who assembled Truth?” He dropped the key… and changed the locks. The baker sold philosophy Between two loaves of rye. I bought a slice, It tasted great— Until I asked him why. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Every answer Needs a question. Otherwise… It gets lonely. ⸻ [Chorus] Ask! Before you answer. Dance! Before you’re right. The cleverest people Keep a little room For surprise. If certainty Is so expensive… Why does doubt Look so well dressed? ⸻ [Verse 2] My mirror earned A university degree. It still can’t recognize It’s looking back at me. A goldfish laughed At all my plans. “You’re building maps For moving sand.” The calendar Became a poet. Monday finally Didn’t know it. ⸻ [Bridge] The waiter served A cup of certainty. I ordered curiosity instead. It wasn’t on the menu… Best thing I ever had. ⸻ [Final Chorus] Ask! Until you giggle. Smile! At what you miss. The universe Never promised us Perfect answers. Only Wonderful Questions. ⸻ [Outro] I know One thing. I’m getting Much better… At saying, “I don’t know.” And strangely… That feels Like wisdom.
