Doug Kuony - I Don't Know
There are things that I do well
I know this to be true
I have labored long and hard
To do the things I do
It's easy to assume that I
Have got it all worked out
And always know which way to go
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
But often my mistakes remain
Lessons left unlearned
So in defeat, there's no retreat
Across the bridges I have burned
With failure come humility
The years have laid me low
But I guess I've gained some clarity
Of reality and so
If you had a notion
You could fill up all the ocean
With the shit
That I don't know
When I was young I felt so smug
About the things I thought I knew
What a shock to find I'm not
Superior to you
I'm convince the more I learn
The less I understand
Life remains a riddle
Much too deep for mortal man
People say you live and learn
'Cause knowledge makes the world turn
The more I learn, the less I get
If I get any smarter, I won't know shit
If I had a nickel
For every single time
What I thought I knew was proven true
I'd have a solid dime
So I've become resigned
To shrug and shake my head
Just try to keep my mouth shut
And an open mind instead
So doubts been my companion
You could fill up that Grand Canyon
With the shit
That I don't know, Oh
With the shit
That I don't know
