87 Percent
87 percent of the things he tells me
I didn't even ask him about
He just loves to tell me things
Things he knows, that I don't
There are many such things, thinks he
He explains, he clarifies, he informs me
He teaches and preaches
Provides me with all this information
All this information
Whether I like it or not
He clearly does
Around 60 percent of the things he tells me
are actually things that I already know
But I don't say anything
'cause I know he enjoys
the sound of his voice
So I just smile and pretend I'm amazed
Which in fact I am
Just not for the reason that he thinks
I'd say probably half of the things he tells me
he's really kinda misunderstood
But I don't try to correct him
'cause that would affect him
Besides, he would never admit to be wrong
So I play along
Only 7 percent of the things he tells me
are honest and true and come straight from the heart
About how he feels
and what he's afraid of
What makes him happy
What makes him cry
In fact, these are the only things he really knows
and yet the things he'd rather not talk about
I didn't even ask him about
He just loves to tell me things
Things he knows, that I don't
There are many such things, thinks he
He explains, he clarifies, he informs me
He teaches and preaches
Provides me with all this information
All this information
Whether I like it or not
He clearly does
Around 60 percent of the things he tells me
are actually things that I already know
But I don't say anything
'cause I know he enjoys
the sound of his voice
So I just smile and pretend I'm amazed
Which in fact I am
Just not for the reason that he thinks
I'd say probably half of the things he tells me
he's really kinda misunderstood
But I don't try to correct him
'cause that would affect him
Besides, he would never admit to be wrong
So I play along
Only 7 percent of the things he tells me
are honest and true and come straight from the heart
About how he feels
and what he's afraid of
What makes him happy
What makes him cry
In fact, these are the only things he really knows
and yet the things he'd rather not talk about
