So i said "Well, what about it? Will we ever know?" and she said "Yes when you die and go to heaven, God will make it all clear". And I used to think that maybe on wet afternoons in heaven we would all sit around God's throne and say "Heavenly father, why are the leaves green?" and he would say "because of the chlorophyll" and we would say "Oh..."

The lyrics consisted of the word "why", sung over and over: Why why why why why why why why why why why why Why why why why why why why why why why why Why why why why why why why why why why why ...and so on. I daresay they used it effectively. the real anti christ Posted at 8:10 am on April 19, 2005 Quote: from HyFa3 at 1:49 am on April 19, 2005 Haha...   But one might ask: Why green? or more importantly, why green instaed of black. actualy a lighter color would serve the plant better. oskar Posted at 6:48 am on April 19, 2005 yea ok vizcelladoor Posted at 2:43 am on April 19, 2005 Even though i vaguely got what you're trying to say, I couldn't help but thinking how poetic it was.  Do you ever right poetry, Tomekk?  You should Plastik Posted at 1:32 am on April 19, 2005 When i was a little boy i would ask my mother many questions, sometimes she would get fed up with me, and say "my dear there are some things in this life that we are not meant to know".
