THE CLARKS LYRICS - You Know Everything

"You Know Everything"



You lift me up to knock me down

But I don't want to play your game

I'm giving back this thorny crown

And there'll be no one else to blame



I used to think you had a heart

Then you picked up that poison pen

I should have known right from the start

That all good things come to an end



I'm not gonna waste my precious time

I know I'm never gonna change your mind



Cause you know everything

You know everything

You know everything



You hung my pictures on the wall

But nothing in this world is free

Now you won't even catch my fall

It's murder in the first degree



I've been torn up I've been knocked down

That's all you ever meant to do

You've taken back your thorny crown

Now you be me and I'll be you
