What I Am Songtext

von Edie Brickell & New Bohemians

I'm not aware of too many things,
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
I'm not aware of too many things,
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box.
Religion is the smile on a dog.

I'm not aware of too many things,
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
Do you...?

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.

What I am is what I am.
Are you what you are - or what?
What I am is what I am.
Are you what you are - or...

I'm not aware of too many things,
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
Philosophy is a walk on the slippery rocks.
Religion is a light in the fog.

I'm not aware of too many things,
I know what I know if you know what I mean.
Do you...?
Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.
Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.

What I am is what I am.
Are you what you are - or what? [3x]

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.
Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep.

Don't let me get too deep. [4x]

What I am is what I am.
Are you what you are - or what? [3x]
