You can call it what you want
You can tells it like you sees it
Believe what you choose
But that don’t guarantees it
You can act so self-assured
You can think just what you want
For what it’s all worth
Like a know-it-all savant
Does it make it real
Does it make it real
What you are and how you feel
You and your unbendable nerves of steel
Does it make it real
You can think you know the truth
Every question has an answer
Get down to the deepest depths
And weed out the cancer
You can line up all your theories
And dispense them one-two-three
I sit back in awe
And drink in your belle esprit
You can pull out all the stops
And wow me with your wisdom
Show me the error of my ways
Like who and what I am is dumb
You can do all this and more
You can shine like a beacon
All the while I decompress
And my soul it does weaken
