Todo Mundo Explica

Don't ask me why
Who-How-Where-Which-When-What?
God, Buddha, The all, The nothing, The sunset,
How the cosmonaut seeks the nothing, the swim, the nothing
Whatever it is, it already is

Don't force me to eat
What you wrote, you didn't read
Daddy bit Dr. Don Sigismundo's head
Because unintentionally he crowed that
Each head was a world, Gismundo

There comes a point where I feel
That I sense
There inside, not of the body, but there inside-out
In the heart, in the sun, in my chest I feel
In the star, in the forehead, I sniff in the whole universe
That I'm alive
That I'm alive
That I'm alive, alive, alive like a rock
And I don't ask
Because I already know that life is not an answer
And if I happen to be here it's because I

But everyone explains
Freud explains, the priest explains

And with the positive stamp of science
That approves and classifies

What does science have?
It has a pencil to calculate
What else does science have?
An eraser to erase later
Have you been to the mirror, man?
No?
Then go!
