Ben Folds "Bastard" |
The old bastard left his ties and his suit A brown box, moth balls and bowling shoes And his opinion so you never have to choose Pretty soon, you'll be an old bastard too. You get smaller while the world gets big The more you know, you know, you don't know shit. The �wiz-man'll� never fit like the �wiz-kid� did. CHORUS: So why d'you gotta act like you know When you don't know. Its okay if you don't know everything Why d'you gotta act like you know and 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 one's that make you feel bad Kids today are getting old too fast They can't wait to grow up So they can kick some ass The get nostalgic about the last ten years Before the last ten years have past ((chorus)) Tears land on a hand on a chest The old bastard the had a paradigm arrest He got smaller and the world got big The more he knew he knew he didn't know shit The �wiz-man" never fit him like the �wiz-kid� did ((chorus)) Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
