Get a Clue

There must be something wrong with you
You're incompetent and ignorant and stupid too
You always seem to miss the bell
You also got short-sheeted at the brain motel

Your mom and dad were scholars
with degrees and Ph.Ds
But your attention span's much smaller
You don't even know your ABC's
And you can't even tie your shoe
You have trouble telling green from blue
I know exactly what you need to do
Why don't you get a clue

You always believe what you hear
But you have wall to wall dead air from ear to ear
And I'm not saying that you are thick
You're just not playing with a full deck and you're short a brick

Did you miss the boat or just go fishin'
Watch out you might have drowned
And don't drop your wallet
'cause you wouldn't know yourself from a hole in the ground
And all the monkeys in the zoo
They point thier fingers and laugh at you
It makes you feel like you're the big Ragu
Why don't you get a clue

Can't you take a hint you're not all there but you're all heart
You thought that you were 'Our Man Flint'
But you ain't even Maxwell Smart

I've forgotten more than you'll ever know
You thought Columbus discovered Ohio
You think you're 'Mr.I know everything'
You thought Minny Vanilly could really sing

It's hard to speak your mind
When there's nothing there to say
It's the same ol' dance and song
Like a new twist on an old cliche'
You brush your teeth with a fine tooth comb
Your Bud light's on but no one's home
And common sense is just chump change to you
Why don't you get a clue
