TheHundredthOne - Know It All

Been a while since I've had time to make any music. Here's one I wrote inspired by introspection (and syncopation).

Lyrics:

 

So the world will never roll out of your hands

Did you know you live by the sword but die by the pen

And you claim that you know how to beat all the mice and men

Are you sure you've safely tucked away all of your plans?

 

'cause the best laid roads can sometimes lead you nowhere

Heard you're living up on the top but are you all alone there

How's your glass house holding up to all the stones you've thrown?

Now you're talking but I know that old scent hanging in the air

 

Hey hey, Mr. Know-it-all

Do you know when you've said too much?

Hey now careful or you'll fall

It's hard to walk with your foot in your mouth

 

Hasn't there ever been a moment you were in the dark?

Felt the thrill of being taken by surprise

You may be smiling but it's plain there's nothing in your eyes

It seems that your tongue has poisoned your own heart

 

Hey hey, Mr. Know-it-all

Do you know when you've said too much?

Hey now careful or you'll fall

It's hard to walk with your foot in your mouth

 

Everyone you know has turned away

Take a look at yourself

Do you like what you see

Or do you see what you like

You see what you're like?

 

Hey hey, Mr. Know-it-all

Do you know when you've said too much?

Hey now careful or you'll fall

It's hard to walk with your foot in your mouth

 

Yeah, that's what I thought.
