Wise Old Me 가사

One day I got the notion To teach a fish to fly So I went down to the ocean When the tide was plenty high Found a fish, we talked And I pointed to the sky But he didn't even try No, he didn't even try Chorus: No one listens to wise old me And I know hot things ought to be I ain't blind but sure don't see Why no one listens to wise old me One day I said to me Let's teach a bird to swim So I climbed way up a tree And I went out on a limb Found a bird, we talked And I pointed to the sea And that bird just sang to me That bird just sang to me As sure as clouds live in the sky There's a place for you and I If you don't learn to let things be You'll find your wise self up a tree Now, please do not be frightened By the things that sound absurd As how man can be enlightened By the wisdom of a bird And so can you, so let it be A lesson for today And may I never hear you say May I never hear you say Chorus No one listens to wise old me
