BEN FOLDS lyrics : "Bastard"

The old !@$( left his ties and his suit
A brown box, mothballs and bowling shoes
and his opinion so you'd never have to choose

Pretty soon, you'll be an old !@$( too
You get smaller while the world gets big
The more you know you know you don't know %#@!

The whiz man'll never fit you like the whiz kid did

So why you gotta act like you know when you don't know?

It's okay if you don't know everything
Why you gotta act like you know when you don't know?
It's okay if you don't know everything


Close your eyes close your ears young man
You've seen and heard all an old man can

Spread the facts on the floor like a fan
throw away the ones that make you feel bad


Kids today gettin' old too fast
they can't wait to grow up so they can get some $$#
They get nostalgic about the last ten years

before the last ten years have passed

why you gotta act like you know when you don't know?

It's okay if you don't know everything
Why you gotta act like you know when you don't know?
It's okay if you don't know everything


Tears land on a hand on the chest
The old !@$( had a paradigm arrest


You got smaller and the world got big
The more you knew we knew we didn't know %#@!

The whiz man never fit him the whiz kid did

Why you gotta act like you know when you don't know?

cause It's okay if you don't know everything
Why you gotta act like you know when you don't know?
It's okay if you don't know everything
