What Is Truth

The old man turned off the radio

Said, "Where did all of the old songs go

Kids sure play funny music these days

They play it in the strangest ways"Said, "It looks to me like they've all gone wild

It was peaceful back when I was a child

Well, man, could it be that the girls and boys

Are trying to be heard above your noise?"And the lonely voice of youth cries

"What is truth?"A little boy of three sittin' on the floor

Looks up and says, "Daddy, what is war?"

"Son, that's when people fight and die"

The little boy of three says, "Daddy, why?"A young man of seventeen in Sunday school

Being taught the golden rule

And by the time another year has gone around

It may be his turn to lay his life downCan you blame the voice of youth for asking

"What is truth?"A young man sittin' on the witness stand

The man with the book says, "Raise your hand

Repeat after me, I solemnly swear"

The man looked down at his long hairAnd although the young man solemnly swore

Nobody seems to hear anymore

And it didn't really matter if the truth was there

It was the cut of his clothes and the length of his hairAnd the lonely voice of youth cries

"What is truth?"The young girl dancing to the latest beat

Has found new ways to move her feet

The young man speaking in the city square

Is trying to tell somebody that he caresYeah, the ones that you're calling wild

Are gonna be the leaders in a little while

This old world's wakin' to a new born day

And I solemnly swear that it'll be their wayYou better help the voice of youth find

"What is truth"

And the lonely voice of youth cries

"What is truth?"
