Songtext Clueless Ben Folds Five

Clueless

Well I was walking down the wrong side of the street
Just to show you all what I don't like
And my mom put my shoes on the wrong feet
A (?) body with an out-paced mind

Pull up track (?) but they cut their hair weird
When I was young I never carried on like that
You in the back there, won't you stand up?
Tell the rest of the world what you're laughing at.
Cause you don't know what you get away with
And you just laugh cause you're
Clueless

So daddy comes down from his big riding lawn mower
Starts ramblin' 'bout the good ol' days
Said he had to walk 5 miles to school
It was snowing and it was uphill both ways

Every night then in the parking lot
Breaking glass with a smile on their faces
Every year now off to college
Another batch of punks (folks?) takes their places

They don't know what they can get away with
And they just laugh 'cause they're
Clueless

Oh man don't you dig the gap
Between me and you
The gaps from here to here
And you don't hear what I do
No you don't.

I was walkin' down the wrong side of the street
Clueless geezers in a big white house there
And my mama put my shoes on the wrong feet
He oughta know he's wastin' his time.
