I Read a Book Once

from I Read a Book Once/ Just a Wave (EP) by Parasite

lyrics

1.
I read a book once, It changed my life,
I can synonymise “nice”,
I learnt the words “multifarious” and “sanguine”.

Bridge:
This makes me better than you,
It was really very moving,
And now I’ve got the words to,
Sound like I know what I am doing.

2.
I read a book once,
I now know the best way to have my furniture arranged,
I know that I should eat more eggs,
And you should “make that change!”

Repeat bridge.

Will chorus:
I guess I did ok,
As if there was no other way,
We are just a wave that think it chooses when it breaks.

3.
I read a book once,
I read some things on histories and laws,
And now my opinion is as valid as yours.

Repeat bridge.

Repeat Will chorus.

I read a book once…
I read a book once…

Adam Final Chorus:
Oh no, I don’t know, I don’t know,
Although the words were successfully read,
Oh no, now I know I don’t know,
The meaning’s gone above my head.
Oh no, I don’t know, I don’t know,
Although the words were successfully read,
Oh no, now I know I don’t know,
The meaning’s gone above my head.
