The Smartest Person I Know

歌詞

Consider this The smartest person I know Was worried that they don't fit in When everyone's running this way They're always running that way The smartest person I know Was worried about their career Their work was once important Now it's empty and redundant And when they mumbled something 'bout a fifth wheel I told the smartest person I know Big wheels turn real slow When you finally get a bone to throw There's no dog around to catch it The trouble with you is you're right You're awkward because you're normal You're worthlessly over-qualified And hopelessly hopeful The trouble with you is you're right You're the smartest person I know That's why you feel like fifth wheel The trouble with you is you're right Isn't that most inspiring? Really such a comfort Useful and encouraging The trouble with you is you're right And the smartest person you know Also probably feels like a fifth wheel (Backwards message): Anyone who worries about subliminal messages On pop records is a fool Everyone else have a nice day The smartest person I know Was worried about their lover We were both going this way Now we're both going that way The smartest person I know Asked if anybody else was sick of living With the end just around the corner Under the boom that never comes And again they mentioned something 'bout a fifth wheel I told the smartest person I know Big wheels turn real slow When you finally get a bone to throw There's no dog around to catch it The trouble with you is you're right You've got values, so you're immoral You struggle 'cause you work too hard Not cool 'cause you're too real The trouble with you is you're right Like this other person I know, who says I'm the smartest person they know And be glad that I feel like a fifth wheel
