"Can't Pretend To Know" lyrics

"Can't Pretend To Know"

Paid plastic figurines
To teach me how to be
The Eiffel Tower leans
In the sunshine and on magazines
Took your car out to Spree
And killed what we had dreamed
I'm just a plastic figurine
So I can't pretend to know

I don't know
I don't, I don't, I don't know
I don't, know I don't, can't pretend to know
I don't, know I don't, yeah

Took Plato and a knife
To teach me how to write
I never had a gripe
In the form of a fight with gravity
Confessionals were thick
Coming up, I felt so slick
Coming down I never made it
So I can't pretend to know

I don't know
I don't, I don't, I don't know
I don't know, I don't, can't pretend to know
I don't know, I don't know
I don't, I can't pretend to know
I don't know, I don't know
I don't, I can't pretend to know
I don't know, I don't

To know, I don't know, I don't
I don't, I don't know, I don't know
I don't, can't pretend to know
