Imposter in Our Midst
Who mixed me up with all these folks who know the score?
They look like I don't look like what they're looking for
No one's saying I got off on the wrong floor
But it's implied
Everybody knows that I don't know what everybody knows
And everyone can tell that I'm not high up on the list
Of people moving things and shaking things
And thinking something's funny
There's an imposter in our midst
Now we're working on a reason to exist
I should probably throw my two cents into this
But when my precious thoughts don't want to be dismissed
They play inside
Everybody knows that I don't know what everybody knows
And everyone can tell that I'm not high up on the list
Of people on their way to things
But detecting something funny
There's an imposter in our midst
They're smiling, but they're on to me
They'll soon be piling onto me
Somebody should stand up
I ought to put my hand up
But I just want to throw them both up high
And reach for the sky
Now they've pulled me from my cozy habitat
You take the lead, they say, but I can't follow that
I blink while they all slap my back together
And pretend I'm fine
Everybody knows that I don't know what everybody knows
And everyone can tell that I'm not high up on the list
Of those who move too fast to smell that I'm on fire
So it seems funny
That an imposter's in the midst of a fit
In our midst
They look like I don't look like what they're looking for
No one's saying I got off on the wrong floor
But it's implied
Everybody knows that I don't know what everybody knows
And everyone can tell that I'm not high up on the list
Of people moving things and shaking things
And thinking something's funny
There's an imposter in our midst
Now we're working on a reason to exist
I should probably throw my two cents into this
But when my precious thoughts don't want to be dismissed
They play inside
Everybody knows that I don't know what everybody knows
And everyone can tell that I'm not high up on the list
Of people on their way to things
But detecting something funny
There's an imposter in our midst
They're smiling, but they're on to me
They'll soon be piling onto me
Somebody should stand up
I ought to put my hand up
But I just want to throw them both up high
And reach for the sky
Now they've pulled me from my cozy habitat
You take the lead, they say, but I can't follow that
I blink while they all slap my back together
And pretend I'm fine
Everybody knows that I don't know what everybody knows
And everyone can tell that I'm not high up on the list
Of those who move too fast to smell that I'm on fire
So it seems funny
That an imposter's in the midst of a fit
In our midst
