Lyrics

Something I Learned Today

[Verse 1]

Something I learned today

Black and white is always gray

Looking through the windowpane

I'm not inside, oh-ho, your brain

[Verse 2]

Something I learned today

Yield to the right-of-way

Stopping at a four-way sign

Someone else's rules, woah-ho, not mine

Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho

[Verse 3]

Something I learned today

Never look straight in the Sun's rays

Letting all the sunshine in

Can't remember where, woah-ho, I've been

Been-heh-heh-hen

Woah-ho, oh-ho-oh-ho, alright

[Outro]

Something I learned today

Something I learned today

Something I learned today

Something I learned today

Something I learned today

Something I learned today

Something I learned today

Something I learned today
