About

Mr. Knowitall is a character who touts his seemingly endless knowledge, prestige, and fine taste. Through the first three verses he builds himself up only to contradict his perfection in the final line where, despite touting himself as eloquent, cannot come up with a word to rhyme with eloquent, say...

Mr. Knowitall Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They call me Mr. Knowitall
I will not compromise
I will not be told what to do
I shall not step aside

[Verse 2]
They call me Mr. Knowitall
I have no time to waste
My mouth it spews pure intellect
And I've such elegant taste

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
They call me Mr. Knowitall
I sup the aged wine
Oh I could tell such wondrous tales
If I should find the time
I must be Mr. Knowitall
For ideas they come in bounds
I am Mr. Knowitall
Now spread the word around

[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
They call me Mr. Knowitall
I am so eloquent
Perfection is my middle name
And whatever rhymes with eloquent
