Know It All

Look at the world in disbelief

You used to follow, now you lead

College has enlightened you

And you are proud to be different and like

Different bands, different types

You ain't nobody's fool

It's like certain bands

Remind you of someone you hated

'Cause they didn't wear the right clothing

And there's only one true fashion

A lot of the bands on the college charts

Are great bands

Until they get signed, Then you hate them

It's such bullshit

You used to love them, you hypocrite

Know it all, know it all

Did you really listen to that song?

Could you ever write what you call wrong?

I remember you and I

Listening to bands that we liked

Only the songs mattered to you

But now you're a D.J.

And preaching that hype

Corporate rock sucks, you know

College radio enlightens you

It's supposed to serve as a means

To expose new bands without prejudice,

But it makes no sense safe harbor

For the underground

'Til the alternative becomes

The popular sound

The bands are good

'Til they make enough cash

To eat food and get a pad

Then they're sold out

And their music is cliché

Because talent's exclusive

To bands without pay

Know it all, know it all

Did you really listen to that song?

Could you ever write what you call wrong?

Know it all
