Clever Not Beautiful |
| Sharks follow my trail, and it won’t be long |
| They’ve fallen for the oldest trick in the book |
| It never goes wrong oh no Mask and snorkel and a bottle of ketchup |
| Oh those desperate old sharkfins start to circle me in anger |
| Oh be clever not beautiful, oh be clever not beautiful |
| If your goal is plain survival well then be clever not beautiful |
| (Ha) Poets lock up your words, your tongues are all tied |
| Oh let read in every history book that the poets all tried to lull us With lilting, songs of a struggle to mountain up a notion |
| That we were something more than animals |
| Be clever not beautiful, oh be clever not beautiful |
| If your gaol is plain survival well then be clever not beautiful |
| Not like your face, as you roam in the garden |
| Not as the earthworms gather beneath your feet |
| You give it all away (all away) for free |
| As we sun our winter bellies (winter bellies) |
| In your spring (yaa) |
| Ooh be clever not beautiful, oh be clever not beautiful |
| If your goal is pure survival well then be clever not beautiful |
| Oh be clever not beautiful oh be clever not beautiful |
| If your goal is plain survival well then be clever not beautiful |
| Be clever not beautiful |
