| consider this... | |
| the smartest person I know | |
| was worried that they don’t fit in | |
| when everyone’s running this way | |
| they’re always running that way. | |
| the smartest person I know | |
| was worried about their career | |
| their work was once important | |
| now it’s empty and redundant | |
| and when they mentioned something ‘bout a fifth wheel... | |
| I told the smartest person I know | |
| “big wheels turn real slow | |
| when you finally get a bone to throw | |
| there’s no dog around to catch it.” | |
| “the trouble with you is you’re right | |
| you’re awkward because you’re normal | |
| you’re worthlessly over-qualified | |
| and hopelessly hopeful.” | |
| “the trouble with you is you’re right, | |
| you’re the smartest person I know, | |
| that’s why you feel like fifth wheel...” | |
| “the trouble with you is you’re right | |
| isn’t that most inspiring? | |
| really such a comfort | |
| useful and encouraging.” | |
| “the trouble with you is you’re right | |
| and the smartest person you know | |
| also probably feel like a fifth wheel...” | |
| the smartest person I know | |
| was worried about their lover | |
| “we were both going this way | |
| now we’re both going that way.” | |
| the smartest person I know | |
| asked if anybody else was sick of living | |
| with the end just around the corner | |
| under the boom that never comes. | |
| and again they mentioned something ‘bout a fifth wheel... | |
| “the trouble with you is you’re right | |
| you’ve got values so you’re immoral | |
| you struggle ‘cause you work too hard | |
| not cool ‘cause you’re too real.” | |
| “the trouble with you is you’re right | |
| like this other person I know who says | |
| I’M the smartest person they know | |
| and be glad that I feel like a fifth wheel...” |
