lyrics

I don't know why,
but everything makes sense in a song.
I don't know why,
but somehow it does.

Everything makes sense in a song, song, song.
Everything makes sense in a song!
I don't know why,
but everything makes sense in a song.

Have you found
that sometimes a song
it really goes quite long, and
sometimes it makes no sense!

I have found when I sing,
I find many, many things
and they usually,
usually make sense!

How do you like your songs
do you like them really long?
How do you like your songs
and your sense?

Well, I could do without sense,
but I really like my songs
and that is why I'm singing.
Singing for your pence,
or your pennies
or your coins
or your money
... so I can eat?
That is why I'm singing for your pence.

And I find that when I sing my songs,
these things they make so much sense.
And I find as I sing, just sing along with songs,
so many things they make sense.

I can sing about so many things.
Sometimes I don't even know what I'm singing!
Sometimes, I can sing about so many things.
And if I keep on going! I find! I find!

If I keep on going, my mind
opens and I see something deep inside
and the song, the song makes sense.
Yes, the song, the song makes sense.

So, you will see, as I sing my songs,
the world, it just makes sense.
At least I think, as I sing the songs that
the world, the world makes sense.

What do I see as I sing my songs,
as I sing of the world making sense?
What do I see as I sing my songs,
Well, I see that the world needs more songs!

So I sing a song about how the world makes sense,
and the world makes sense with songs.
I sing songs about worlds making sense
and the world it hears my song.

about

Mr. Beany's Bitty Band

We're a one-person band fronted by a human who self-describes as a mad artist. We invented the "crapcapella" genre, and remain a proponent, though we now support the term "folk acapella" as well. We love improvised music as well as sheet music.
