I Wonder Why

Why does a man break his back in labor? in exchange for a short pleasure Or run the dough to eat? Why does he fetch water and waste it on barren ground? why does he swallow loads of fat then suffer the pain or ill?I wonder why, i wonder, why? has his brain been plugged by senselessness? i wonder why.
