Bobby Darin - Questions Lyrics
How do you kill a mountain
How do you make it fall
Well you chip away
Every day
And soon the clay
And the hole you've dug
In the dream you hug
Will be like a bug
In your ear
Can't you hear.
How do you kill the sunshine
How do you turn it out
Well you close your eyes
To the cries
In the law's disguise
And the light will fade
In the evenin' shade
Which is only made
By the sun
Are you dumb.
How do you kill the ocean
How do you make it dry
Well you first dilute
Then pollute
Cut the fruit
At the root
And the ocean's floor
Will be like a whore
Who will lie no more
'cause she's dead
Use your head.
How do you kill the country
How does she disappear
Well you trade your tent
In for rent
That will be spent
On poured cement
And the things that grew
When the earth was new
Which have nurtured you
Will be gone
Blow your horn.
How do you kill an idea?

Bobby Darin Questions Comments
This song has the same messages/theme that Marvin Gaye expressed in "What's Going On". This one by Bobby was earlier. 1968. Marvin's was released in 1971.
With this album, Walden Robert Cassotto CREATED RAP. But it took Americans 40 years to catch up, and they still haven't equaled his for LISTENABILITY and PROFUNDITY of lyrics.
I LOVE this album. It's one of the GREAT buried treasures in recording history. He gave Americans a great gift of prescience with this song, and Americans didn't listen. Listening to it now....we're THERE.
Bobby Darin is such a mega multi talented man, to this day no one has ever been able to achieve what he did with his songs. His ability to dig deep into the heart and soul of each song and deliver the most wonderful heart felt song in his recordings and to his live audiences is indeed a testament to Bobby Darin. The rich tones and sound are unique to Bobby. Thank God the world was blessed with his masterful unique abilities and talents, and massive contribution to the world of music. RIP BD !
@tenniscollector You're welcome, and I agree.
Thanks. Great Song and a shame that the album was not more of a success. Great Opening song to his 1968... Born Walden Robert Cassotto record.
