Ooh, just gimme it quick
But then I find it hurts me
Just when I think I'm king
Something sat in your lap
It says, "Look! I'm over here"
Something sat in your lap
(I just begin)
(I just begin)
Some say that heaven is hell
(I just begin)
(Tibet or Jeddah)
(To Salisbury, a monastery)
Across the weather
Some say that knowledge is
(A jet to Mecca)
In my dome of ivory
I must admit, just when I think I'm king
And 'tis I that moan and groaneth
I see the people happy
Hey, I'm coming up the ladder
I've been doing it for years
But I don't have no energy
But there is nothing within
Some say that hell is heaven
Some say that heaven is hell
Something that you never have
So can it happen for me?
And so I want to join in
Something that you never have
Some say that knowledge is
(I just begin)
I want to be a scholar
(I just begin)
Some say that hell is heaven
Then it up and disappears
Just when I think I'm king, I must admit
But I really can't be bothered
Gimme it, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
I'm coming up the ladder
Some say that knowledge is
A home of activity
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho
I want the answers quickly
My cup, she never overfloweth
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho ho
Just when I think everything's going great
Something sat in your lap
When I'm king, just begin
(The longest journey)
(I just begin)
I hold a cup of wisdom
I must admit, just when I think I'm king
Across the elements
Some gray and white matter
'Cause when I am unhappy
Across the desert
(I just begin)
Hey, I'm gonna take it all
Some say that knowledge is ho ho ho
I get the break
Up the ladder
Some say that knowledge is
Some say that knowledge is
There's nothing that can move me
My goal is moving near
(Give me the karma, mama)
I want to be a lawyer
Just when I think I'm king, I must admit
