Before I Was Smart - Edson

Take me out and make me feel

What it’s like to be surreal

Sticky, stingy, stiff and pale

Wonder how I got so quail

They might save a lie

Or a fiendish why

In a time where the things we do scare me I preferred to be Stupid and nave

In a time I remember just barely

Before I was smart

On a train to my old town

Putting on a scornful frown

In this town I used to sing

Sing about most anything

They might save a lie

Or a fiendish why

In a time wher e the things we do scare me I preferred to be Stupid and nave

In a time I remember just barely

Before I was smart
