Genius (Never Came Through) lyrics - Duncan Sheik

Clearly I'm a genius

If she only knew it

but somewhere in her radius

I really blew it

I know, I know what I said to her

and I know what I did

What I don't know is how I could ever be

so incredibly stupid

[CHORUS:]

(you don't really need to know every last detail.

Its hardly worth telling

suffice to say I said that I would be there

i never came through)

Maybe I'm a genius and

she just don't see it

I fronted,

I should have admitted,

she saw right through it

I never thought that I could be

so underhanded.

somehow I've cornered the market on

the double standard

[CHORUS]

For this act of genius

and so many others

I know I should apologize

and see how it goes

what am I waiting for?

come on, come on, come on, come on

sha la la la la la sha la la la la la la la

to all of the geniuses...

[CHORUS]
