lyrics

The more I try the more that I learn
The more I learn the more that I see
The more I see the more that I'm getting to know
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now

It’s like that beanstalk I’m trying to climb
Just grows on taller all of the time
I've got a fine view while swingin’ here getting to know
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now

I got to say, I'm out to Plan J
Confidence gone aground
And there ain't much bliss in my new ignorance
But that ain't gonna turn me a-round

I'll want to bring what I can to the floor
Sometimes it hurts, but it's never a bore
At the worst, it bests sitting round never to know
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now

I got to say, I'm out to Plan K
Confidence gone aground
There ain't much bliss in my new ignorance
But that ain't gonna turn me a-round

The more I try the more that I learn
The more I learn the more that I see
The more I see the more that I'm starting to know

What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, now
What I don't know………..What I don't know, yet
