VERSE 1
E
[RIFF] I was taught a month ago
E
[RIFF] To bide my time and take it slow
E
[RIFF] But then I learned just yesterday
E
[RIFF] To rush and never waste the day
E
[RIFF] Now I'm convinced the whole day long
E
[RIFF] That all I learn is always wrong
E
[RIFF] And things are true that I forget
E
[RIFF] Well no one taught that to me yet
