Honey-sweet words are sticky
Flowering metaphors unclear
Of all the f****** stupid things I've ever done
this ranks as, err, just one of many
Tell it straight, and keep the beat
Don't worry Bean, I've not gone wrong
Venting vitriol, spitting heat
I'm just kidding, having fun in song
When I learn, when I learn some sense
I won't stay too long
When I learn, when I learn some sense
Too much, too often-too long, being
reasonable has made me creak
under the insidious grip, the
incredible power of the weak
When I learn, when I learn some sense
I won't stay too long
When I learn, when I learn some sense
When people go wrong
So, no more, b******s to it all
So why tell this to a river? This is the rite to say it clear
This is the rite to delive
When I learn, when I learn some sense
I won't stay too long
When I learn, when I learn some sense
When people go wrong
