Will Butler - I Don't Know What I Don't Know lyrics

Just a terrible Sunday night
But, if you wanna come by
It's alright it's alright
I've been sleeping on a bed of nails
I'm a little pale
But, if you told me we had to run
I would run, I would run, I would run
And I wouldn't look back til you told me so
Tell me where to go
Past the children lying in the road
Past the fire burning everything old
Over every river
Every mountain til we reach the sea

But, I don't know what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know what I can do

If you ask me what'll I be
Let me see, let me see, let me see
I'll be a teacher, be a preacher
Be a bird in a tree
If you ask me who do I blame
It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a shame
I blame the teachers, blame the preachers
Blame the birds in the trees

But, I don't know what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know what I can do

If you tell me there's something there
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
If you're watching
You can watch it as it disappears
Watch the old burn into smoke
Watch the eyes as they tell the joke
Watch the bullets and the? as
They move through the streets
Grab your sister's kids
Hide next to the fire station 'cause-

I don't know what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know what I don't know
What I don't know what I don't know
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
I don't know what I can do
