Smarty (You Know It All) - Count Basie and His Orchestra

Damn you're so dull Still need to borrow your hate Change what they can Persuade us back under cover Oh old you're so over Who made you king of the ages? Tending the wounds Thinking of adding another But the chosen Never wrong He sat holding Several thoughts I'll take anything that's not bolted down Bolted down Tricking us in, don't get along if they're brothers So phasing it out, correcting vision with fists And drawing a line, still give it less than a week Checking the wounds, thinking of adding another But the chosen Never wrong He sat holding Several thoughts I'll take anything that's not bolted down Bolted down Free what's bolted down Chosen Never wrong He sat holding Several thoughts I'll take anything that's not bolted down He was chosen Never wrong He sat holding Several thoughts I'll take anything that's not bolted down

Well all I know is everything I've learned And if I'm changing that's the reason that I'll turn Into someone I can trust Before I turn back into dust There's an answer but I wouldn't be concerned Out of everything I've seen and all I've heard And everywhere I've been around the whole wide world There's still something I can't find I've been lost within my mind Since you fell out of my sight without a word Well I thought I knew it all Till I crashed into the wall Let me learn from my mistakes And try to pick up all the pieces Well the night we met I thought you were the one Yes and when you left I nearly came undone There's a million miles to go At the end I still won't know What I did to ever send you on the run Now the memories just keep flying 'round and 'round And I'm traveling faster than the speed of sound Well the bigger I stand tall It's the harder I may fall On the day my vices lay me in the ground Well I thought I knew it all Till I crashed into the wall Let me learn from my mistakes And try to pick up all the pieces Well all I know is everything I've learned And if I'm changing that's the reason that I'll turn Into someone I can trust Before I turn back into dust There's an answer but I wouldn't be concerned Well I thought I knew it all Till I crashed into the wall Let me learn from my mistakes And try to pick up all the pieces Let me learn from my mistakes And try to pick up all the pieces
