Knockin On Mine

You read common knowledge, stockpile your brain

You get burned in the sun, you get wet in the rain

What they teach you to fix, needs to be broke

I say he who laughs first didn't get the joke

Go on, untap your mind

Quit knocking on mine

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

Quit knockin' on mine

Walkin on

Knockin' on mine

Knowledge is power, got your books go read 'em

Wisdom is ignorance; stupidity I call freedom

Knockin' on mine

Get out

Comic books, the Bible, roadmaps, pornography

Anything you wanna read

Go out and sit in a field sometime

Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)

Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)

...power got your books go read 'em

Wisdom is ignorance, stupidity, I call freedom

Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)

You read common knowledge every day

You're as common as that newspaper you throw away

You get burned in the sun, you get wet in the rain

Won't you ever change

Won't you ever learn

Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)

Yes sir

Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)

Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)
