Say Anything - Certain Type Of Genius lyrics

rate me

<div class="showResultLinks">There is a certain type of genius<br />

Who is proud to know so much<br />

He skipped a thousand showers<br />

Cause he doesn't need to touch<br />

He hides his bastard faces<br />

Behind thick panes of glass<br />

They're all that seperates him<br />

From the apish lower class<br />

And the stench of love keeps sneaking up his nose<br />

Through all the snot his sinuses can hold<br />

Believing all the lies that he's been told<br />

Grows old, so old<br />

<br />

A friday night alone with friends<br />

He's got but one or two<br />

They're geniuses like him, you see<br />

Nothing like all of you<br />

They banter and they languish<br />

With ostentatious plea<br />

They're all so trendy and which<br />

They're underground machines<br />

<br />

And he wont be there when jesus comes around<br />

He'll write a book on what his studies found<br />

And deep inside he'll learn to fear the sound<br />

Of hope, of hope<br />

<br />

He says why should I even try<br />

I will let the oil soak in my face<br />

Until the pimples shine<br />

Like tiny mountains set in place<br />

This lonely valley, mine<br />

Between the hills of opulence<br />

They grow with strength and time<br />

Scarlet clusters spring from skin<br />

To hide my missing spots (go go go go! )<br />

<br />

And he wont be there when jesus comes around<br />

He'll write a book on what his studies found<br />

And deep inside he'll want to hear the sound<br />

Of hope, of hope<br />

<br />

When the world stabs you in the back<br />

The worst thing you could do<br />

Is become indifferent to<br />

There is no 'they'<br />

No idiot brigade<br />

Only a thousand yous<br />

Equally as bruised</
