Know It All

from Know It All by The Vandas

lyrics

Composed by Chris Altmann © Mushroom Music Publishing

Well, I think I learned a thing or two
About what is what and who is who
And who are you, and am I too, do you know what I knew?
Yeah I think you do

Are you ever starved for excitement?
‘Cause you know what’s gonna happen next
Have you ever been in a jam before?
Nobody takes your bets, ‘cause no-one expects

You really know it all
Are you keepin’ score in that head of yours?
You really know it all
With your ears and eyes always on the prize
You really know it all

Well over our grades now and let me see
There’s an A for maths and ancient history
And geography, we’ll that gets a B
Yes, everything’s getting very high indeed

I never met such a perfect example
I’ve never known such a brilliant mind
I think I’s gonna try a little bit hard now
They think you’re so behind but I think they’ll find

You really know it all
Are you keepin’ score in that head of yours?
You really know it all
With your ears and eyes always on the prize
You really know it all

Well, right or wrong, I couldn’t care less
Don’t wanna cause any stress, but is it no or yes?
And which button do I press, or do I have to guess?
How can I express that I’m really impressed?

84’s probably below average
110 I think that’s in between
Whoah, 150 that’s the higher end of the scale
They’ll never earn the beans, they don’t know what it means

To really know it all
Are you keepin’ score in that head of yours?
You really know it all
With your ears and eyes always on the prize
You really know it all
Look at you fly past to the top of the class
You really know it all
