Ignorance Amiss

All I wanted for Christmas was everything Everything I got for Christmas Now resides at the pawn shop You ask for the world, you end up with Earth - Dirty Rotting Infested Utterly confusing The most liberating thing a person can do Is say 'I don't know' ... And mean it But what if you know everything? What if you know nothing? What if you know that you know nothing? Of course no one will believe you They all 'know' you're full of it You can't be better than they are But I am They just don't 'know' it yet
