What I Know

Written by Glen Ballard & Siedah Garrett

I know what I know

Maybe I was young and didn't understand
Or maybe I just didn't give a damn
Either way there was a lesson to be a-zed
I held the fire til it burned
I used to think I was so clever
Now I see that I was just like you

Before I discovered, what I know
Could save you some trouble
Cos I know, what I know, the hard way
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ie...

Listen up and you will know what not to do
Oh... carry on until we carry you
Either way it's taught the lesson will be a-zed
Why wait until the tables turned

Like you I thought I was so clever
Now I see, that I was just a fool

Until I discovered what I know
Could save you some trouble
What I know, I a-zed the hard way
What I know, I had to discover
What I know could save you some trouble
Cos I know what I know, the hard way...
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ie...

Mmm, Mmm, Mmm
I know what I know
(You're sure you won't mind)
I know what I know
(You wouldn't have to rewind)
I know what I know
I know what I know
(If I could show you my mind)
I know what I know
(You wouldn't have to rewind)
I know what I know
(You wouldn't have to rewind)
I know what I know
(Rewind

I used to think I was so clever
But now I see I was just like you

Until I discovered what I know
Could save you some trouble
What I know, I a-zed the hard way
What I know, I had to discover
What I know, could save you some trouble
Cos I know what I know, the hard way
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ie...
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ie...
Yeah, yeah, yeah-ie...
