Track Lyrics

Outsmarted Lyrics

[Intro]
Outsmarted!
[Verse 1]
I used to be the kid who always got caught
I used to be the one who never let thought
Interact one bit with intellectual shit, diversity and wit
You used to be the kid who waited in line
For an opportunity to waste away time
Trying to be so cool, no suspicion, no clue
[Chorus]
You've been outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted
[Verse 2]
Now I'm the kid who put the shit back in place
And I'm the one who threw it back in your face
It took a little bit of intellectual shit, diversity and wit
Now you're the kid who put the 'L' back in lame
And you're the one who's always fitted the frame
Still such a fool, no suspicion, no clue
[Chorus 2]
You've been outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap, surprise!
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted
[Bridge]
You're outsmarted! (Yeah!)
That's what I said (Yeah!)
Yeah! (Yeah!)
I'm only throwing back what you've been putting in my face
Whoa!
[Chorus 2]
You've been outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap, surprise!
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap
Outsmarted, I'm selling you for scrap

Hate to Say I Told You So Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do what I want 'cause I can and if I don't because I wanna
Be ignored by the stiff and the bored because I'm gonna
Spit and retrieve 'cause I give and receive because I wanna
Gonna get through your head what the mystery man said because I'm gonna
[Chorus]
Hate to say I told you so
Alright, come on
Do believe I told you so
[Verse 2]
Now it's all out and you know 'cause I wanted to
Turn my back on the rot that's been planning the plot because I'm gonna
No need for me to wait because I wanna
No need two, three too late because I'm gonna
[Chorus]
Hate to say I told you so
Alright, come on
Do believe I told you so
[Verse 3]
Do what I please, gonna spread the disease because I wanna
Gonna call all the shots for the no's and the nots because I wanna
Yeah!
[Outro]
Ask me once I'll answer twice
'Cause what I know I'll tell because I wanna
Sound device and lots of ice
I'll spell my name out loud because I wanna
Oh yeah!

The Hives – Introduce the Metric System in Time Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Been trying for all my life but I can't add up your subtraction
Work, eat, play, then go to sleep, that won't get me no satisfaction
Gotta find a way out, yeah, a way out of this mess
So sick of trying to make my time last and ending up with less
[Verse 2]
Know your way of doing things and it lost its attraction
Why settle for twenty four when I can have a hundred fractions?
Who knew I'd be the one pulling off that perfect crime?
So here's my new line, I'll change your mind and the metric system in time
[Verse 3]
Caused trouble all over the town and it's bound to start a reaction
Metric time will come around, it's gonna overtake your contraction
I've found a way out, yeah, a way out of this stress
I made my time last and it's total success
[Verse 4]
Got my way of doing things and it's bound to gain your attraction
Hundred hours is my supply, it's gonna give us all satisfaction
No doubt I'd be the one pulling off the perfect crime
So here's my new line, I'll change my mind and the metric system in time
