Cardigans

I'm so smart aleck

the world spins around my head

got lots to learn

although everyone's so full of lead

silent almost rigid

cut off as by a switch

I won't comprehend

until they all lay down dead in a ditch

things don't concern me at all

my eyes are shut

the hat low over my eyes

I'm the devil in disguise

I look at things from a certain view

looking with distaste

no, I would never ever compromise

I'm so smart aleck

the world spins around my head

my eyes are vague and empty

just as the light behind them is dead

things don't concern me at all

my eyes are shut

the hat low over my eyes

I'm the devil in disguise

I look at things from a certain view

looking with distaste

no, I would never ever compromise

you say it don't concern you at all

I say you're blind

with that hat low over your eyes

you should compromise

you see things from a certain view

shut your ego down

you fell for your inbred lies

you should have compromised
