Bastard lyrics

Artist/Band: 
Folds, Ben

The old bastard left his ties and his suit
A brown box, moth balls and bowling shoes
And his opinion so you never have to choose
Pretty soon, youll be an old bastard too.

You get smaller while the world gets big
The more you know, you know, you dont know shit.
The wiz-man'll never fit like the wiz-kid did.

CHORUS:
So why dyou gotta act like you know
When you dont know.
Its okay if you dont know everything
Why dyou gotta act like you know and you dont know
Its okay if you dont know everything

Close your eyes, close your ears young man
Youve seen and heard all an old man can
Spread the facts on the floor like a fan
Throw away the ones that make you feel bad

Kids today are getting old too fast
They cant wait to grow up
So they can kick some ass
The get nostalgic about the last ten years
Before the last ten years have past

((chorus))

Tears land on a hand on a chest
The old bastard the had a paradigm arrest
He got smaller and the world got big
The more he knew he knew he didnt know shit
The wiz-man" never fit him like the wiz-kid did

((chorus))
