Genius - Duncan Sheik

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

(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

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…
