I'm sitting on the plane
As it flies up in the air
(How does it do that?)
I don't know
And I don't really care
As long as when I'm in it
It stays up there
I wonder how the plane gets in the air
(Because it's a long way down)
And these are the mysteries
I don't understand
I thank You, Lord,
For the people who can
That's why, everyday
It's off to school I go
Cause the more I can learn
The more things I will know
(Hmmm... makes sense to me)
I'm talking on the phone
Listening to my Grandma Sue
(Can she hear you?)
Absolutely!
I know it to be true
Because if I ask her really nicely
She'll send me a buck or two
But how the phone works
I don't have a clue
(*ring* "Good evening, can I interest you in a subscription..." *click*)
And these are the mysteries
I don't understand
I thank You, Lord,
For the people who can
That's why, everyday
It's off to school I go
Cause the more I can learn
The more things I will know
I don't get
No, I just don't get it
No, I said,
It doesn't make sense to me
I don't get it
No, I just don't get it
No, my brain can't comprehend
What my oh-ohs see
I don't get
No, I just don't get it
No, I said,
It doesn't make sense to me
I don't get it
No, I just don't get it
No, my brain can't comprehend
What my little oh-ohs see
(Uh... "oh-oh's" means "eyes", right? Alright...I'm learning!)
I crank up the microwave
It heats up all my food
(How does it do that?)
I don't know
And I don't mean to be crude
But I know it's hot in there
Cause once I melted my new shoes
The microwave is fast
When it cooks food
(...and Nikes)
And these are the mysteries
I don't understand
I thank You, Lord,
For the people who can
That's why, everyday
It's off to school I go
Cause the more I can learn
The more things I will know
These are the mysteries
I don't understand
I thank You, Lord,
For the people who can
That's why, everyday
It's off to school I go
Cause the more I can learn
The more things I will know
Yeah...
