Shallow Water

I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean
Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box
Religion is the smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know, if you know what I mean, d-doo yeah

Choke me in the shallow waters
Before I get too deep

What I am is what I am
Are you what you are or what?

- Edie Brickell -

I'm not aware of valuable things
I know what I know and have what that brings
Philosophy is to question the why of it all
Religion is the package of how - and it's small
Wrapping it up with a nice little bow
Here's what to think, here's what you know

I couldn't care about all these odd things
Can't give advise, can't save my own skin
Philosophy forges a new path or fresh road
When the old way we've used doesn't lead to truth
Religion has a plot and a plan the way mapped out
Sometimes we can't go there...not by that route

Do you know what I mean? d-do ya?
Am what I am and truth is for me - are you what you want or...what?
