Smarter Hearts

[Verse 1]

Had a friend who rode the map

Used to be a great dancin' king

Well, I never saw his car burn down

No, he never wore a terry-cloth hat

[Verse 2]

Knew a girl who knew someone

Spoke in detail of the circles she flew around the sun

No, I never saw through this lie

No, I never saw the burns on her eyes

[Chorus 1]

You know, history does repeat endlessly

It's just that we imagine that we are someone else

With multiplied strengths

And strides of great lengths

And hearts are smarter than before

[Verse 3]

Would you believe, a bear as dumb as that

Who walks, eyes open, twice into the same trap

Never heard the gate slam shut

No, we never saw the phone line's cut

[Verse 4]

Had a friend who wove the myth

He never been fooled, never been kissed

Drawing comic strips of his pain

But he's just another sucker, standing in the rain

[Chorus 1]

You know, history does repeat endlessly

It's just that we imagine that we are someone else

With multiplied strengths

And strides of great lengths

And hearts are smarter than before

[Bridge]

Hearts are never smarter, oh

Ooooh

Hearts are never smarter oh

Ooooh

Hearts are never smarter oh

Ooooh

You know

You know

[Chorus 1]

History does repeat endlessly

It's just that we imagine that we are someone else

With multiplied strengths

Strides of great lengths

Hearts are smarter than before

[Chorus 2]

History does repeat endlessly

It's just that we imagine that we are someone else

With arrow-proof coats

Foolish bravery rising in our throats
