Clearly I'm a genius
If she only knew it
But somewhere in her radius
I really blew it
I know, I know what I said to her
And I know what I did
What I don't know is how I could ever be
So incredibly stupid
Chorus:
(you don't really need to know every last detail
Its hardly worth telling
Suffice to say I said that I would be there
I never came through)
Maybe I'm a genius and
She just don't see it
I fronted
I should have admitted
She saw right through it
I never thought that I could be
So underhanded
Somehow I've cornered the market on
The double standard
Chorus
For this act of genius
And so many others
I know I should apologize
And see how it goes
What am I waiting for?
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Sha la la la la la sha la la la la la la la
To all of the geniuses...
