I know enough to know I don’t know enough and for now, that is enough.

We’re Right Until We’re Wrong

 

All that we believe

All we believe we know

We base on what we’ve seen

What we’ve learned

What we’ve been told

 

But isn’t it also based upon

What we haven’t seen

What we haven’t learned

What we’ve never been told?

Everything we think we know

Assume we’re right,

‘Til we learn, “No”

 

The world is round

A cure’s been found

Brought to you faster

Than the speed of sound

We’re right, but as time moves along

We’re right until we’re wrong

 

What we don’t know

What time may show

The side effects that swim below

Below the horizon of good intention

Blinded by the light of capital invention

Oh yeah, and did I fail to mention

The allergies, or the outright rejection

What saves can kill

Don’t OD, just take your fill

It’s life and death

Pressed in a pill

 

The world is round

A cure’s been found

Brought to you faster

Than the speed of sound

We’re right, but as time moves along

We’re right until we’re wrong

 

Save me then, save me again

Give me the cure, then save me from it

You’re both the Nightingale, and death for sale

My best chance and my worst enemy come from it

But I’m blind to the bad, all I can see

Is hope on the prescription you wrote for me

 

At least the world’s still round

Confirmed by shuttles not earthly bound

And traveling faster than the speed of sound

At least the world’s still round

At least the world’s still spinning round

At least in this world I still belong

We’re right, that is, until we’re wrong

We’re right until we’re wrong

At least for now

I still belong
