Lyrics:
[Prince]
There are time I almost think
They are not sure of what they absolutely know

[Louis]
I believe they are confused
About conclusions they concluded long ago

[Prince]
If my father and your mother
Are not sure of what they absolutely know
Can you tell me why they fight

[Louis]
They fight to prove that what they do not know is so

[Prince]
Oh-hhhhh
Sometimes I think that people going mad

[Louis]
Ah-h-h-h-h-h
Sometimes I think that people
(Spoken) Not so bad

[Prince]
But not matter what I think
I must go on living life
And someday as a leader I must go forth
Be father to my children and husband to each wife
Etcetera, etcetera, and so forth
If my Lord in Heaven Buddha, show the way
Everyday I try to live another day
If my Lord in Heaven Buddha, show the way
Everyday I do my best for one-more day
But

[Louis]
(Spoken) is a puzzlement
