Lyrics

He’s Dumb

[Verse 1]

He's sitting down forever

A sailor without anchor

Attends the family functions

Talks to himself, restraining eruption

"I hate you Mom, I hate you Dad

I hate myself, it makes me glad"

[Chorus]

And he's dumb

'Cause he really, really thinks that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really thinks that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb

[Verse 2]

They all say that he is a genius

But he's just gullible to believe it

And after all, who's to say?

He's never had a friend

Even a friend he could hate

Because he's dumb

Because he's sick

Because he's so great

[Chorus]

And he's dumb

'Cause he really, really thinks that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really thinks that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb

[Verse 3]

He may be quite an actor

But he doesn't ever reach for fame

'Cause everyone is just a partner

Helping the other climb up the ladder of praise

Forever falling, ever falling out of the way

[Chorus]

And he's dumb

'Cause he really, really thinks that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really thinks that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb and he's dumb

'Cause he really, really knows that

He's dumb
