[Verse 1]
I got the dictionary in my hand
But I can't seem to find the word I'm looking for
I've checked every letter, now I'm up to z
There just ain't anymore
I've got a million choices in my head
If I could only chose the one that says it best
I shelled out a quarter for a greeting card
Now I can't seem to get my pen to do the rest
[Chorus]
But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, every word
But it's so deep inside it can't be heard
[Verse 2]
I've got the Sunday paper in my hand
And I've been working on the weekly cryptogram
I know there's a message in between the lines
That's the same way I am
I got the crossword puzzle half complete
But now I need another word four letters long
It's just like the way I want a perfect fit
I can settle for less but all of them are wrong
[Chorus]
But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, every word
But it's so deep inside it can't be heard
[Bridge]
There could be no jealousy over my poetry
It's my weakest quality, no vocabulary
[Verse 3]
I got the Scrabble letters in a pile
But there could never be enough to say it all
I know you don't wanna hear the same old line
So you'll just have the read the writing on the wall
[Chorus]
And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, every word
But it's so deep inside it can't be heard
[Outro]
And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, every word
And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, every word
But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, every word
And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse
I'll quote you any part, yes I will, every word
Yes I know it all, know it all, I know it all by heart...
