The Problem Song

When you don’t know what to do
When you can’t see your way through
You’re in a bind
When you try to work it out
And your head is filled with doubt
You’re driving blind
You’ve got a problem
And you’ve got to solve it
Do you remember when you
Had another problem in the past
The answer was not what you thought
In what ways did you proceed
To get the data at last
And you solved it, did you not
When the fog clouds up your mind
The solution’s hard to find
You’re in a rut
You’ve got a problem
And you’ve got to solve it
Don’t give up on it
Stay on top of it
Take a look at it from all directions
Then take a walk around
Think of your favorite song
When you come back to it
Your problem you will solve
Your problem you will solve
When the goal seems so far away
And you think you don’t have what it takes
Keep on and you will figure it out
You’ve got a problem
And you’ve got to solve it
Who do you know who
Takes a go at a problem with zest
And a fire in their eyes
Oh can you ask them
To explain all the theories they’d test
The many formulas revised
When you don’t know what to do
When you can’t see your way through
You’ve got a problem
Don’t give up on it
Stay on top of it
Take a look at it from all directions
Then take a walk around
Think of your favorite song
When you come back to it
Your problem you will solve
Your problem you will solve
