Rundgren, Todd - Wouldn't You Like To Know Lyrics






Ignorance is bliss
And I believe it's so
I guess sometimes you have to hurt like this
If you ever hope to grow

Rolling like a stone
Down the same old road
Why you're still alone
Wouldn't you like to know

Ever wonder where
Or why she had to go
Did she really care
Wouldn't you like to know

Life is so complex
I can't help but fall behind
It's hard to see how all of this connects
With a simple little mind

When you close your eyes
What is that tableaux
All gone when you rise
Wouldn't you like to know

Never asking more
Going with the flow
What's behind the door
Wouldn't you like to know

Facing toward the wall
With my fingers in my ears
Don't want to know if I've been wrong at all
That I wasted all these years

Rolling like a stone
Down the same old road
Why you're still alone
Wouldn't you like to know

Ever wonder where
Or why she had to go
Did she really care
Wouldn't you like to know

When you close your eyes
What is that tableaux
All gone when you rise
Wouldn't you like to know

Never asking more
Going with the flow
What's behind the door
Wouldn't you like to know

Rundgren, Todd Wouldn't You Like To Know Comments
  1. t.... n....

    Album not doing well... he formatted these short little rants hoping to land a hit in the corporate music world
    which as todd stated him self... music lost its soul..including him...this is clever but sucks so bad

  2. C.... B....

    Magnificent & Magical! Love Todd! Onomatopoeia...pop & sizzle...

  3. a.... g....

    Started in on a binge of Todd listening in December 2018 with Metropole Orchestra 2012 show - and the winter never really set in, I was still finding fantastic new chord changes & turns of phrase n April 2019 - In My Mouth the last glorious hit I got and of the material I should have known, oh how i had slept on the slacker anthem Just One Victory

  4. J.... V....

    This man has so much talent......

  5. s.... c....

    Is Bop a dunkshiek fan? sounds great.

  6. A.... L....

    Sophisticated, beautiful.

  7. M.... W....

    I didn't know this was a political forum. Learn something new every day!

  8. R.... 8....

    What's wrong with Rebop for a name, Dufus?

    R.... 8....

    Rufus...not Dufus...

  9. D.... L....

    Todd's voice instantly made me think this was McCartney!?

    D.... L....

    Really?....sounds nothing like McCartney to me...just pure Todd.

    D.... L....

    It did remind me of Paul...

  10. M.... W....

    iLiKe it

  11. A.... B....

    So who wrote this? And who is playing this exactly? It may be the best track on this album. But why would Todd reach out to others when he could do all of this?

    A.... B....

    Because it's his son.

  12. j.... ....

    I have owned 45 Todd/Utopia albums/cds. No one compares! I wonder how Todd would vote in a referendum on a democratic world parliament. Good idea? Yes or No - take a stand and strike while the iron is hot at www.VoteWorldParliament.org

    j.... ....

    Surrender our sovereignty to some world body of elites...yeah, I've got some butterscotch-frosted cyanide cupcakes for 'ya..."I think you're gonna love 'em"..."one world" indeed....Shee..itt...

    j.... ....

    In a perfect world, yes. One world. One Planet. One race. Human.

    j.... ....

    Human beings are neither ants nor bees. I'll keep my USA if you please.

  13. T.... ....

    Wow. Is that Rebop playing guitar? This album has to chart (but it doesn't matter to me).

  14. b.... ....

    Todd...this one I like...btw, who's less-pissed w/ their name...Rebop or Rufus Wainwright?

    b.... ....

    Maybe Moon Unit Zappa?

    b.... ....

    She would certainly have to be in the running...I hear Dweezil's  happy as a clam though...

    b.... ....

    @bodeswell35 Zowie Bowie (AKA Duncan Jones), I suspect is the winner.

    b.... ....

    Rebop loves it.who wouldn't love to be named by Todd,& be his boy. bonus much?

  15. B.... C....

    My fav off White Knight.. as a Dad I love that this is father and son too. Stellar👍🏻
