Genius Songtext

von Friendly Indians

Though I never asked your opinion I'm thrilled
It's bold ideas like yours that got Socrates killed
No one says a word as you cut everything to size
Because they can't get a word in edgewise

So don't take your time
Just say the first thing that pops in your mind
We both know that you'd rather be right than kind
You're doing fine Einstein

[Chorus]
Oh yeah you're a genius
Oh yeah you got it all figured out
Oh yeah you're a genius
So tell me what I'm all about
Yeah I dont want to be left out
When you save my life

A quick moment of silence while you take your seat
Don't surprise us or anything and try to be discreet
No one says a word but how could they resist
The ramblings of a neurotic narcissist

So don't take your time
Just say the first thing that pops in your mind
We both know that you'd rather be right than kind
You're doing fine Einstein

[Chorus]

I try you on for size
I couldn't be that wise
The cocky smirk you wear's a disguise
You're not like us Copernicus

[Chorus]
I'm standing here I'll make it clear I'll take you back to any year if you could only shut your mouth
Oh yeah

[Chorus]
I'm standing here I'll make it clear I'll take you back to any year if you could only shut your mouth
