  • There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know
    There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know

    From the north to the south, from the east and west
    London town is busy at best
    With the kicks to the chest and the dips and the crests
    (Fall asleep)
    Fall asleep past your stop, creeping
    Past 11 o clock in the morning, no dawn's ever boring

    Sometimes I lie in the bath 'til it's cold
    Nothing but a laugh to the front in the back of my soul
    I wanna live forever, give my best guess
    'Cause that's the best you'll get is a guess, but no less

    Smoke in the chest, hold it in, 'til it's in your skin
    Inhale this hardly smoke, that's a hardy toke
    Flip flops and your shorts or the big dogs on the porch
    'Til the night on the scorch, I light like a torch

    There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know
    There's those that don't know
    (Two stoned)
    Those that don't know that they don't know

    Hunky dory all evening, at a 140bpm
    'Til it's done sort of in the a.m. or you've done talkin' or it's mayhem
    At the cornucopia, doped up, the local shops a mere toe-tap
    Vocal in focus on the buying your papers and fire drill
    And the brightest shades of milk, we look a mighty shady ilk

    Memories of a long lost eon
    Millions of stars out there, which one might you be on?
    It's like Jupiter's moon in this room get the heat on
    I need a stencil to follow my pencil, pensive and sensing
    Smoke in your chest, hold it in 'til it's in your skin
    Inhale this hardly smoke, that's a hardy toke

    There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know
    There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know

    You know me, I always detest the dawn
    The grass always looks like it was left on the lawn
    You talk around events and from side of your sight
    The Benson burns, it reflects in your eyes

    There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know
    There's those that don't know
    Those that don't know that they don't know Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
