1
When I found we could have some brains
2
I was the first in line, cause we were, like
3
Dragging our knuckles along the ground
4
(dragging our knuckles along the ground)
5
Ever since, I've been convinced that every
6
Sacred thought is mine, and you were still
7
Dragging your knuckles along the ground
8
(dragging your knuckles along the ground)
9
Cause I think I'm there, dude (don't get ahead of yourself)
10
I think I'm there, dude
11
(Already high)
12
And when they asked us who will lead
13
I thought it surely must be me
14
But I stood up too fast
15
(I stood up too fast)
16
Because as soon as I was boss
17
The next one in line took my head clean off
18
Cause I stood up too fast
19
(I stood up too fast)
20
I was barely in my teens when I decided I was tired
21
Of always like dragging my knuckles along the ground
22
(dragging my knuckles along the ground)
23
So with all due haste I based until I got so freakin wired
24
Forgot I was dragging my knuckles along the ground
25
(dragging my knuckles along the ground)
26
I thought I was there, dude (you'll got ahead of yourself)
27
I thought I was there, dude
28
Already high
29
And when they asked for volunteers
30
I must have thought they said 'drink beers'
31
And I stood up too fast
32
(I stood up too fast)
33
I can imagine things that can't possibly exist
34
And then I add them to an ever-expanding list
35
And when I've solved every significant test there is
36
Then I'll move on no matter how many clues I've missed
37
It's so easy to be smart but it's a struggle to be wise
38
You shouldn't be always throwing your weight around
39
(always throwing your weight around)
40
It's much better to be humble than to have a big hat size
41
Or you'll be just begging somebody to take you down
42
(begging somebody to take you down)
43
And you'll be nowhere, man (you got ahead of yourself)
44
And you'll be nowhere, man
45
Already high
46
And right before your very eyes
47
I have ignored my own advice
48
Cause I stood up too fast
49
(I stood up too fast)
50
And nobody has the slightest choice
51
But to put up with my droning voice
52
When I stood up too fast
53
(I stood up too fast)
54
