lirik lagu i ought to know – ronny cox
[verse 1]
i ought to know more than i know
i ought to know where this road goes
i ought to know great literature by heart
the history of art
this i ought to know
i ought to know more than 1492
i ought to know what the buffalo bills do
i ought to know more than the quarterback’s wounded knee
what happened at sand creek
this i ought to know
but i don’t
[verse 2]
i ought to know about the sacrifices made
i ought to know ration stamps, air raids
i ought to know more than george c. scott
and john wayne gets shot
this i ought to know
i ought to know what the drinking gourd means
i ought to know more than “i have a dream”
i ought to know about the back of the bus
and the crack of billy clubs
this i ought to know
but i don’t
[chorus]
i don’t know nothing about nothing
i’m proud to stand upright
i don’t know nothing about nothing
my future looks so bright
illumined by the light
laugh tracks, soundbite
and replay to get it right
i ought to know
[verse 3]
i ought to know the songs of joe hill
i ought to know trotsky, marx and hegel
i ought to know about the haymarket hangings
and the h.u.a.c
this i ought to know
i ought to know about oliver cromwell
i ought to know the gnostics and st. paul
i ought to know what jesus really said
and who the preacher took to bed
this i ought to know
but i don’t
[verse 4]
i ought to know what’s buried in the landfill
i ought to know about the clear*cutting bills
i ought to know about pipelines and schemes
and what extinction really means
this i ought to know
i ought to know for whom the bell tolls
i ought to know the pride and prejudice of polls
i ought to know if the grapes of wrath are union
picked by victor jara’s hands
this i ought to know
but i don’t
[chorus]
i don’t know nothing about nothing
i’m proud to stand upright
i don’t know nothing about nothing
my future looks so bright
illumined by the light
laugh tracks, soundbite
and replay to get it right
i ought to know
i ought to know
i ought to know
