Intro: Main riff x4
Alright...
Verse - Main riff x3
Read common knowledge stockpile your brain
You get burned in the sun, you get wet in the rain
They teach you to fix what needs to be broke
I say he who laughs first didn't get the joke

Go on and tap your mind
Quit knocking on mine

Verse: Main riff x3
An English teacher from Vancouver
She asked me to write something for her students.
I wrote knowledge adds wisdom let slide
She says now really? I wanna tap your mind

Knowledge is power got your books go read 'em
Wisdom is ignorance; stupidity I call freedom
