The Mystery Of Life - The Cowsills

Round the mystic stream

Gaze all eighteen

From babe to philosopher

Watch the stoics face

He and the race

Cannot solve the mystery of life

Who knows the answer

Who knows the answer

Floating in the air

'bore her children

The mother found it there no doubt

And with a knowing smile

The wise ole man

Knew it and was quite content

Who knows the answer

Who knows the answer

Who knows the answer

If you knew, would you tell me

If you knew, would you believe

It’s true

The father and the nun

In religion

Surely found the answer there

The lovers felt it when

They were kissing

The fool, well he just

Turned away and said

Who knows the answer

Who knows the answer
