about

key of C, 128bpm

lyrics

i used to be certain about everything i knew
and everything i couldn't do
i was actually stupid
but i would just call you stupid
if you said so to me
i used to know
i used to know everything

and if i wanted to write in someone else's style
well i was convinced i could do that perfectly
emily dickinson dashes
alliteration billy blake
for shakespeare i'd write a sonnet
and for john lennon a love song

and i was actually stupid
but i would just call you stupid
if you said so to me
i used to know
i used to know
i used to know everything

i used to know
i used to know everything

it's all so easy when you're 12 and privileged
it's all so easy you're a white male genius
it's all so stupidly easy
so why's the world so stupid
so why's the world so stupid
it's all so friggin' easy

i used to be so cocksure
that if i ran the world
that i would run it better
than it's being run right now
but just because i can see
that some things aren't right
that doesn't mean that i can fix anything
i used to know everything
