Wise Up
This meeting will now come to order
Please, take your seats
The minutes of the last meeting will be read
The minutes of the last meeting will be read
Old business, new business, there's a motion on the floor
That we review new applications
State your qualifications, be specific!
Pounding my head against a brick wall
Finally got smart, wised up
Gonna look out for myself, now
I know better now, I know better now
Won't do it again, won't do it again
Tell us about yourself
What events have brought you to us?
How did you reach this decision? Are you aware of our function?
The consequences and restrictions of this organization?
Be reminded we are listening for slip-ups indicating lack of conviction
Gave myself a little credit
I won't repeat past mistakes, mistrust my feelings
Learn from my experiences
I know better now, I know better now
Won't do it again, won't do it again
Administer the serum
Where's that list of questions?
We all know why we're here, so let's get right to it!
There must be order, there must be order!
Shocking revelations, we are all deeply affected
But how many times?
How many times must they get burned before they learn their basic lesson?
Recondition their behavior
Reprogram their responses
Only stupid people fail to see that it's a bad thing
Maybe in the 80s, but I doubt it
Maybe in the 80s, but I doubt it
Maybe in the 80s, but I doubt it
We're concerned about our members (I know better now)
Ours is a very select group (Won't do it again)
Go home and think about it (I know better now)
Come back tomorrow, we'll talk some more (Won't do it again)
Okay, gentlemen, let's break early
We've all got things to do
Please, take your seats
The minutes of the last meeting will be read
The minutes of the last meeting will be read
Old business, new business, there's a motion on the floor

I know better now, I know better now
Won't do it again, won't do it again
