"Know What, You're Right" lyrics

"Know What, You're Right"

Remember when you talked about the days ahead
And how we need to measure up to what's been said
Oh, I was measuring myself again last night
Know what? You're right
Oh, how can you be so dismissive of the press
Saying they're incapable of truth, no less
Did they not inform us of Iraq's great might?
Know what? You're right

Rudimentary lessons on guitar are fine
But learning how to smash it is my favourite line

Gonna see a band we used to love to bits
Dressed up in the clothes we wore when they had hits
You think at my age I'll look a sorry sight
Know what? Know what? Know what? You're right
Know what? You're right

Surely, if a planet like ours does exist
Or every politician should be placed on this

Like to run a marathon, I'm sure I could
Oh, I've been eating them for years, they do taste good
You think I'd be last home, even on a bike
Know what? You're right

All of us who think we know a thing or two
Ought to bear in mind one more is just a few

Remember when you talked of "Won't get fooled again"
Said it was the greatest record made by them
I said surely that must be "Here comes the night"
Know what?

Force a lady that matter to you
