She looked me over
And I guess she thought
I was all right,
All right in a sort of a limited way
For an off-night,
She said don't I know you
From the cinematographer's party,
I said who am I
To blow against the wind,
.
I know what I know,
I'll sing what I said,
We come and we go,
That's a thing that I keep
In the back of my head
I know what I know,
I'll sing what I said,
We come and we go,
That's a thing that I keep
In the back of my head,
.
She said there's something about you
That really reminds me of Money,
She is the kind of a girl
Who could say things that
Weren't that funny,
I said what does that mean
I really remind you of Money,
She said who am I
To blow against the wind,
.
I know what I know,
I'll sing what I said,
We come and we go,
That's a thing that I keep
In the back of my head
I know what I know,
I'll sing what I said,
We come and we go,
That's a thing that I keep
In the back of my head,
.

She moved so easily
All I could think of was sunlight,
I said aren't you the women
Who was recently given a Fulbright,
She said don't I know you
From the cinematographer's party,
I said who am I
To blow against the wind,
.
I know what I know,
I'll sing what I said,
We come and we go,
That's a thing that I keep
In the back of my head
I know what I know,
I'll sing what I said,
We come and we go,
That's a thing that I keep
In the back of my head,
.
[Pause]
.
I know what I know
I know what I know
I know what I know
I know what I know
