Genius (Never Came Through)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Clearly I'm a genius
If she only knew it
but somewhere in her radius
I really blew it
I know, I know what I said to her
and I know what I did
What I don't know is how I could ever be
so incredibly stupid
CHORUS:
[you don't really need to know every last detail.
Its hardly worth telling
suffice to say I said that I would be there
i never came through]
Maybe I'm a genius and
she just don't see it
I fronted,
I should have admitted,
she saw right through it
I never thought that I could be
so underhanded.
somehow I've cornered the market on
the double standard
CHORUS
For this act of genius
and so many others
I know I should apologize
and see how it goes
what am I waiting for?
come on, come on, come on, come on
sha la la la la la sha la la la la la la la
to all of the geniuses...
CHORUS
