Lyrics
Why, why, why, why?
Why, why, why?
Because, because, because
Goodnight, goodnight
Why does a camel drink water?
Why, why, why?
'Cause a camel gets thirsty just like you and me and everybody else does
Goodnight, goodnight
Why can't a mouse eat a streetcar?
Why, why, why?
Because a mouse's stomach isn't big enough to hold a streetcar
Goodnight, goodnight
Why can't a cow have kittens?
Why, why, why?
Because
Well, um
Because cows have little calves
And cats have little kittens
And besides, dear, it's easier that way
Goodnight, goodnight
Why won't you answer my questions?
Why, why, why?
Because I don't know the answers
Goodnight, goodnight
