I Knew What I Know Now Lyrics by ​sElf

Porno, Mint & Grime

2005

[Verse 1]
You say you can't recall my name or my face
I am so sure I knew you well before this
I can't sing and I can't dance so good
There is no soul, there is no beat left to dance
[Chorus]
If I knew what I know now
I'm sure I could show how the story all ends
If I knew what I know now
I'd probably just punk out before it begins
[Verse 2]
I can blame it on the rest of the world
To understand it takes a mind with patience
You say you can't recall my number, girl
A penny for your thoughts on beatings I have taken
Jotting stardates in your captain's log
I am for sure alone in this life
Building karma with your cats and your dogs
I am for sure the victor this time
[Chorus]
If I knew what I know now
I'm sure I could show how the story all ends
If I knew what I know now
I'd probably just punk out before it begins
[Break]
Ooh-ooh, wee-ooh-ooh-wee-ooh
Ooh-ooh, wee-ooh-ooh-wee-ooh
[Chorus]
If I knew what I know now
I'm sure I could show how the story all ends
If I knew what I know now
I'd probably just punk out before it begins
[Chorus]
If I knew what I know now
I'm sure I could show how the story all ends
If I knew what I know now
I'd probably just punk out before it begins
