Say Anything - A Certain Type of Genius Lyrics
There is a certain type of geniuswho is proud to know so muchhe skipped a thousand showerscause he doesn't need to touchhe hides his bastard facesbehind thick panes of glassthey're all that seperates himfrom the apish lower classand the stench of love keeps sneaking up his nosethrough all the snot his sinuses can holdbelieving all the lies that he's been toldgrows old, so oldA friday night alone with friendshe's got but one or twothey're geniuses like him, you seenothing like all of youthey banter and they languishwith all ostentatious pleathey're all so trendy and whichthey're underground machinesAnd he wont be there when jesus comes aroundhe'll write a book on what his studies foundand deep inside he'll learn to fear the soundof hope, of hopeHe says why should i even tryi will let the oil soak in my faceuntil the pimples shinelike tiny mountains set in placethis lonely valley, minebetween the hills of opulencethey grow with strength and timescarlet clusters spring from skinto hide my missing spotsand he wont be there when jesus comes aroundhe'll write a book on what his studies foundAnd deep inside he'll want to hear the soundof hope, of hopewhen the world stabs you in the backthe worst thing you could dois become indifferent tothere is no 'they'no idiot brigadeonly a thousand yousequally as bruised
