- Too Clever By Half Lyrics / with translationsSometimes I try to be too sharp
No one gets the point
Notes on a broken harp
I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't want to carp
Sometimes I try to be too sharp
Sometimes I try to be too smart
Like the times when I'm finished
Before I start
Dressing up dressing down
Malice in wonderland
I've thrown down the iron glove
Now let's go hand in hand
Don't you see?
That I'm laughing at me
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
If these are finger pointing songs
The finger is pointing at me
Living up to my own put downs
The sting that kills the bee
Making waves
A bully in the pool
Good intentions lost at sea
A snake venom cure
The cause is the remedy
Too clever by half
Don't you see?
That when I'm laughing
I'm laughing at me
Too clever by half
Too clever by half
Too clever by half
Too clever by half
No one gets the point
Notes on a broken harp
I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't want to carp
Sometimes I try to be too sharp
Sometimes I try to be too smart
Like the times when I'm finished
Before I start
Dressing up dressing down
Malice in wonderland
I've thrown down the iron glove
Now let's go hand in hand
Don't you see?
That I'm laughing at me
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
Smart Alec smart Alec
Smart Alec smart Alec
What have you done?
If these are finger pointing songs
The finger is pointing at me
Living up to my own put downs
The sting that kills the bee
Making waves
A bully in the pool
Good intentions lost at sea
A snake venom cure
The cause is the remedy
Too clever by half
Don't you see?
That when I'm laughing
I'm laughing at me
Too clever by half
Too clever by half
Too clever by half
Too clever by half
