Verse 1
We Were Taught That Honesty Would Set You Right And Keep You Free
Don't Seem Much Like That Anymore
I've Never Been Afraid To Say What I Think
It Just Got Worse The More I Drank
So I Put That Down To Find Peace I Never Knew
What Do I Know?
Verse 2
Every Generation Says It's Worse Than The Last
If We Had Nine Lives
I Think Eight Have Passed
I Can't Believe What I Look Out And See
Call It What You Will, For Progress Made
From Where I Stand, A Spade's A Spade
Some Things Are Still Black And White
What Do I Know?
What Do I Know?
What Do I Know?
Verse 3
Got A Teenage Girl And A Shaggy-Haired Boy
Their Mama's Still My Pride And Joy
We Hope Our Kids Have Learned From Our Mistakes
And They've Seen Fire And They've Seen Rain
It Seems That We're Leaving Them A World Insane
We Just Pray We Prepared Them For Their Way
But What Do We Know?
What Do We Know?
What Do We Know?
Chorus
There's Things I Know That I Don't Know
In Plain Sight But Do Not Show
And There Are Words That I Can't Find, And I Never Will
There's Truth That I Seek Desperately
There's So Much More Than We Can't See
And It's A Different Kind Of Thirst
Now That Gets My Fill
What Do I Know?
Interlude
Chorus
There's Things I Know That I Don't Know
In Plain Sight But Do Not Show
And There Are Words That I Can't Find, And I Never Will
There's Truth That I Seek Desperately
There's So Much More Than We Can't See
And It's A Different Kind Of Thirst
Now To Get My Fill
What Do I Know?
What Do I Know?
What Do I Know?
What Do We Know?
What Do We Know?
What Do We Know?
