Lyrics You Don't Know Anything - Stornoway

You Don't Know Anything

I’ve got my head down in my books
I’ve been reading all weekend
But I don’t learn anything
Because my mind is full of emptiness
I’ve less energy than a stick of celery
And then you call me up, down in Jericho
To see if I’ll go for a drink or two
But I don’t want you to see
What the lonely nights are doing to me
Bit my fingers to the bone
And I don’t want to hear you say
You let what happened anyway
'Cos you don’t know anything
I was a stronger man than you when I loved Delilah
With her pants on fire
But then she cut my hair and left me here
With more inertia than a limpet on the shore
When the tide falls so low I feel like letting go
Though I should go to my family
But I don’t want you to see
What the lonely nights are doing to me
Bit my fingers to the bone
And I don’t want to hear you say
You let what happened anyway
'Cos you don’t know anything
And I don’t want to hear you say
You let what happened anyway
'Cos you don’t know anything
