Oh, Clever Boy

Oh, clever boy

Your eyes are dark, your hair is curled, aha

How did you measure

Holding yourself against the world, aha

Johnny and Jimmy

Out on a flight, not you, aha

You made up your game

Followed your rules

For fortune and fame

You'd play the fools

Johnny and Jimmy

All they wanna do is make a scene, aha

Wake up on Sunday

They got work on Monday, it's a steady routine

Why do I get these

With pleasure thoughts and big dreams, aha

They'll ask my fellow

What I will say

They return to their homes

Put on their games

They'll ask my fellow

What I will say

Oh, clever boy

You're off to reinvent the wheel, aha

Wanted to stand alone

An innovator in your field, aha

Johnny and Jimmy

Look at you full of wonder, how's it feel, aha

You're so all alone

But you pass the time

Thinking of words

Make sure they're right
