I Don't Know What I Don't Know
Just a terrible Sunday night
But if you wanna come by
It's alright, it's alright
I've been sleeping on a bed of nails
I'm a little pale
But if you told me we had to run
I would run, I would run, I would run
And I wouldn't look back 'til you told me so
Tell me where to go
Past the children lying in the road
Past the fire burning everything old
Over every river, every mountain 'til we reach the sea
But I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
If you ask me "What'll I be"
Let me see, let me see, let me see
I'll be a teacher, be a preacher, be a bird in a tree
If you ask me "Who do I blame?"
It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame
I blame the teachers
Blame the preachers, blame the birds in the trees
But I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
If you tell me there's something there
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
If you're watching, you can watch it as it disappears
Watch the old burn into smoke
Watch the eyes as they tell the joke
Watch the bullets and the villains as they move through the streets
Grab your sister's kids
Hide next to the fire station 'cause-
I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
But if you wanna come by
It's alright, it's alright
I've been sleeping on a bed of nails
I'm a little pale
But if you told me we had to run
I would run, I would run, I would run
And I wouldn't look back 'til you told me so
Tell me where to go
Past the children lying in the road
Past the fire burning everything old
Over every river, every mountain 'til we reach the sea
But I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
If you ask me "What'll I be"
Let me see, let me see, let me see
I'll be a teacher, be a preacher, be a bird in a tree
If you ask me "Who do I blame?"
It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame
I blame the teachers
Blame the preachers, blame the birds in the trees
But I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
If you tell me there's something there
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
If you're watching, you can watch it as it disappears
Watch the old burn into smoke
Watch the eyes as they tell the joke
Watch the bullets and the villains as they move through the streets
Grab your sister's kids
Hide next to the fire station 'cause-
I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know, what I don't know
What I don't know, what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
