The Riddler Lyrics

Riddler Riddler ask me why

The birds fly free on a mackerel sky

Ask me whither goes the wind

Whence the endless tick-tick stream begins

Make me guess if the earth is flat or round

Set a guessing if fantasies are unbound

If tales aren't just for children to see

That it's peace if sleep walks with me

As you wish

For kingdom come

The one to know all the answers

You think you dwell in wisdoms sea

Still sweet ignorance is the key

To a poet's paradise

Challenge the Riddler and you will see...

Riddler Riddler ask me why

All mothers beneath the Earth and sky

Hold their children's hands for a while

Their hearts forever - yours and mine

Make me wonder what's the meaning of life

What's the use to be born and then die

Make me guess who's the one

Behind the mask of Father and Son

As you wish

For kingdom come

The one to know all the answers

You think you dwell in wisdoms sea

Still sweet ignorance is the key

To a poet's paradise

Challenge the Riddler and you will see...

For nature hates virginity

I wish to be touched

Not by the hands of where's and why's

But by the Oceans' minds

As you wish

For kingdom come

The one to know all the answers

You think you dwell in wisdoms sea

Still sweet ignorance is the key

To a poet's paradise

Challenge the Riddler and you will see...
