Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Should be at sleep, trouble with the counting sheep
But they're out on the street makin' up the numbers
Not quite accountancy, more like I'll count and see
What will amount of me
Well you can count on me, camaraderie
How hard can it be, I could pass in my dreams
But I can't get no sleep, trouble with the counting sheep
So they're out on the street, makin' up the numbers
[Verse 2]
He says, "Oh"
They know too much, they show
Too much, where are their clothes?
Barely on their bones
And oh
They talk too much, they walk
Like they got one leg short
And a chip on their shoulder, ah-ah
[Verse 3]
As they walk like they talk like they know
Walking, talking
Talking like they know
What do they know?
Talking like they know
Maybe they know, know
Know, know, know know
Walk like they talk like they know
Walking, talking
Talking like they know
Maybe they know
Talking like they know
Maybe they know
[Verse 4]
Should be at sleep, trouble with the counting sheep
But they're out on the street makin' up the numbers
Not quite accountancy, more like I'll count and see
What will amount of me
Well you can count on me, camaraderie
How hard can it be, I could pass in my dreams
But I can't get no sleep, trouble with the counting sheep
So they're out on the street, makin' up the numbers
[Verse 5]
Dinner for one under the lights on dimmer
VH1 is on, MJ singin' Thriller
He's talkin' to the Man in the Mirror
And his hair's gettin' thinner
Luck's gettin' slimmer
But his gut's gettin' bigger
"Youth is wasted on the youth," he says in vain
[Verse 6]
Oh, they know too much, they show
Too much, where are their clothes?
Barely on their bones
And oh
They talk too much, they walk
Like they got one leg short
And a chip on their shoulder, ah-ah-ah
[Verse 7]
As they walk like they talk like they know
Walking, talking
Talking like they know
What do they know?
Talking like they know
Maybe they know, know
Know, know, know know
Walk like they talk like they know
Walking, talking
Talking like they know
What do they know?
Talking like they know
Maybe they know
[Verse 8]
In my city, city
It gets pretty gritty
Bang Bang like it's Chitty Chitty
Anybody with me, with me?
I try and look above and see the
Witty, witty going somewhere else
Screamin' out "I really don't know"
Many bitty people tryna rescue their show
One of these days
They might find a light that can lead them out
To the end of the tunnel where it seems so bright
[Verse 9]
Oh (Ah ha), they know too much, they show (Show)
Too much, where are their clothes?
(Where are they clothes?)
Barely on their bones (Barely, barely, barely on their bones)
As they walk like they talk like they know
Walking, talking
Talking like they know
What do they know?
Talking like they know
Maybe they know (Ah, ah)
Maybe they
Know
