[Verse 1]
You think you know everything
But you don't know lots of things
I know ’cause one time I was just like you
If the words come out before you think
You don't know of what you speak
Then you come off sounding like a fool
[Verse 2]
If you believe you're always right
You’re wrong, and that's an oversight
Nobody's right that much of the time
If you've got all the answers, who's asking all the questions?
No one can get a word in edgewise
[Chorus]
Listen, listen, listen
Try not to talk for a while
Listen, listen, listen
Even though that's really not your style
[Verse 3]
I've walked a mile in your shoes
But I got tired of being you
Ended up just talking to myself
Maybe insecurity
Does you like it did to me
Afraid you're not good enough in sight
[Chorus]
Listen, listen, listen
Try not to talk for a while
Listen, listen, listen
Even though that’s really not your style
[Verse 4]
You think you know everything
You don’t know lots of things
I know 'cause one time I was just like you
Let’s keep that between ourself
Some things, you don't have to tell
'Til later on, 'cause here comes you-know-who
[Outro]
You think you know everything
But you don’t know lots of things
You think you know everything
