lyrics
Smart alec
There's one in every class
Who always gets straight A's
Devours every word
That his fucking teacher says
Loves the algebra and Latin
That he's always taught
But his brain just a sponge
Not one original thought
He says "if you don't learn in school...
How will you earn? FOOL!"
Thinks that the nerds shall inherit the earth
Smart Alec
A middle-aged teen
By his mum he was always dressed
Ignored by the girls
But he'd rather play chess
Thinks that we are all dumb
But he's missing the truth
Invests in the future
He's only wasting his youth
He says "if you don't learn in school...
How will you earn? FOOL!"
Smart alec
Thinks that the nerds shall inherit the earth
Now he's working
Thinks there must be more
Stressed out by debt went grey at 24
Wife and kids have left him
As his sinking ship is sunk
Swapped his hope for drink
Now Alec is a drunk
He says "if you don't learn in school...
How will you earn? FOOL!"
Smart alec
Alec did whatever they'd say
"It wasn't supposed to be this fucking way"
