Nobody Likes a Know It All Part 3 of 4
Nobody Likes A Know-It-All
(Or ... But I Know, What I Know)
... About Play-Time & Rest & Work-Shift Gears
About GOD & Laws & Holy Spirit Pure
About Faith & Hope & Man-Made Cures
Yeah, I Know of Somethings (Tho' I'm No Seer)
And No Matter What Others May Say or Hear ...
Believe When I Tell You So ...
... I Know What I Know
I Have Checked My Academic's Interior
So Furniture Where I Sat Won't Be Inferior
& So My Degrees Would Be The Perfect Temperature
And My Curriculum Wouldn't Graduate Immature
So Certificates & Diplomas Are Always Tenure
and No Matter What The World May Throw ...
... I Know What I Know
I've Studied Thesis & Themes About Conscience & Jurors
Separated & Negated Both Rumors & Errors
So Wisdom's Alma Mater Would Polish My Mirror
To Reflect Seminars & Lectures Superior
and Now, I'm On An Honor-Roll
... and I Know What I Know
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
(Prov. 2: 1 - 22)
Someone Once Said That, "Knowledge Is Power"
But I Say ... Wisdom: Is A Warrior In His Strong Tower
and Understanding: Is An Army That Covers Its Ground
Discernment: Is A Sentry That Watches Over Its Town
Reason or Rationale: Rides & Reins In Wild Horses
Having Sense: Surrounds Us In Full-Tactical Forces
A Discipline: Is A Skill, Honed Sharp & Smart For Battle
A Lesson: Is Instructions; Orders; & Rules That Awards Medals
Learning: Is An Arrow That Will Reach Its Target
& A Teacher Is: Commander, Leader, General & Drill Sargent
& A Student: Is A Soldier and Apprentice of Them All ...
Yes, A Student Must Have The Strategy To Patrol
Yet, Always Remember - Nobody Likes A Know-It-All
Oh, See How Thoughts Are Being Taught All The Time!
Even As I Reasoned & Wrote Down This Rhyme
Like Bells That Ring or A Whistle That Blows ...
... I Know What I Know

Humans Live For Adventure & Mystery
That's Why GOD Keeps Some Things Under Lock & Key
(Eccl. 3: 10, 11)
So, We'd Search & Seek & Survey & See
& Either Answer, 'At Last!' ... or Say, 'Enlighten Me'
and GOD Will Have Wonders To Show ...
... I Know What I Know
