Paul Westerberg - Knockin On Mine Lyrics
AllrightYou read common knowledge, stockpile your brainYou get burned in the sun, you get wet in the rainWhat they teach you to fix, needs to be brokeI say he who laughs first didn't get the jokeGo on, untap your mindQuit knocking on mineAn English teacher from VancouverShe asked me to write something for her students.I wrote knowledge adds, wisdom let slideShe says now really? I wanna tap your mindQuit knockin' on mineWalkin onknockin' on mineKnowledge is power, got your books go read 'emWisdom is ignorance; stupidity I call freedomKnockin' on mineGet outComic books, the Bible, roadmaps, pornographyAnything you wanna readGo out and sit in a field sometimeQuit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)... power got your books go read 'emWisdom is ignorance, stupidity, I call freedomQuit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)You read common knowledge every day.You're as common as that newspaper you throw awayYou get burned in the sun, you get wet in the rainWon't you ever changeWon't you ever learnQuit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)Yes sirQuit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)Quit knockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)Knock knock knockin' on mineKnockin' on mine (knockin' on mine)Knock knock knockin' on mineQuit knocking on mine (knockin' on mine)Knock knock knockin' on mineKnock knock knockin' on mine
