I got my dunce's cap and cardboard sword And I'm droolin' as you talk to me You say I should be in a mental ward But That might seem like home to me
Cos I don't get it I don't understand And I think love's overrated Why can't a woman be more like a man Instead of complicated
Chorus It takes a village idiot It takes the class clown And his whole crew Well there's one idiot In this village girl And I guess it isn't you
You Wanna be listened to And held and told The things that really matter But it's so subtle I just can't grasp hold And all I know is idle chatter You say it's simple but i'm simple too And I don't tell you this with pride But when I put together two and two I keep comin' up with five
Chorus
Do better than your best This is not a test That's what you keep tellin' me Stop and think a bit Only an idiot would Look at a forest and Just see a tree
