The More You Know by Hamell on Trial Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been thinkin’ about parenting my son, you know
I've been thinkin' that his manhood has begun, you know
I’ve been thinkin' about ideas I wanna run to inspire him
To fire the life that I'm a nun you know
I've been thinkin' about wisdom, I'm a let you know
I've been thinkin' about things I wanna say, you know
I’ve been thinkin’ about traits he's displayed
Faith has its way, fate mistakes that I made
I’ve been thinkin' about senses on a board, you know
I've been thinkin' about things I would report, you know
Thinkin’ that life is so short
Supply what is wise
And how the time flies
I've been thinkin' about bark a mole code, you know
And the rules of the road, you know
Look at him and my heart would explode
When to interfere, and when to stand clear
[Chorus]
The more you know
The more you don't know
The more you know
The more you don't know
[Verse 2]
Difficult to say what is essential
Got a man so unpresidential
What am I supposed to tell my child
When morals and integrity have all run wild?
Can I convey to be understood fully
No rise to greatness, not being a bully
A man who lies compulsively
Got his finger on the button of the military
Says he grabs women by the pussy
And mocks people with a disability
Whose trophy wife is an obvious whore
Whose privileged life lacks a spiritual core
Who probably stands illiterate
And hoards all the money he can get
How do I tell my son this ain't the way
When the schoolyard bully is the president today?
[Chorus]
The more you know
The more you don't know
Road to heaven, baby
About to explode
The more you know
The more you don't know
The road to hell, well
Lined with fool's gold
[Verse 3]
I've been thinkin' about temper and advice, you know
I've been thinkin' about when to think twice, you know
I've been thinkin' about when to sacrifice
Throwin' him a bone for when he's on his own
I've been thinkin' about furious thirst, you know
I've been thinkin' about quenchin' words, you know
I've been thinkin' about comin' in first
All that that entails like comin' off the rails
I've been thinkin' about a concert with Cupid
About the things I did stupid
I've been hopin' that his heart ain't polluted
Winnin' gets to break him, learn from the achin'
I've been thinkin' about how to have lunch, you know
I've been thinkin' about how lunch [?], you know
I've been thinkin' that the world is reprehensible
Then you turn around, and joyous love abounds
[Chorus]
The more you know
The more you don't know
The road to heaven, well
About to explode
The more you know
The more you don't know
The road to hell
Is lined with fool's gold
I've been thinkin’ about parenting my son, you know
I've been thinkin' that his manhood has begun, you know
I’ve been thinkin' about ideas I wanna run to inspire him
To fire the life that I'm a nun you know
I've been thinkin' about wisdom, I'm a let you know
I've been thinkin' about things I wanna say, you know
I’ve been thinkin’ about traits he's displayed
Faith has its way, fate mistakes that I made
I’ve been thinkin' about senses on a board, you know
I've been thinkin' about things I would report, you know
Thinkin’ that life is so short
Supply what is wise
And how the time flies
I've been thinkin' about bark a mole code, you know
And the rules of the road, you know
Look at him and my heart would explode
When to interfere, and when to stand clear
[Chorus]
The more you know
The more you don't know
The more you know
The more you don't know
