Baxter Dury
Listen
[Verse 1: Baxter Dury]
Did you listen?
Did you listen?
Cleverer than me
So it's hard to believe
Did you listen?
Did you listen?
People like them
Think they understand
Look at them laughing inside
Did you listen?
Did you listen?
All those funny faces
Pretending to be nice
Did you listen?
Did you listen?
Catch you when they can
Leave you in a mess
Look at them laughing inside

[Chorus: Madelaine Hart]
And the white coats are coming for the clever ones
Hide your books
My boy
And the white coats are coming for the clever ones
Hide your books
My boy
[Verse 2: Baxter Dury]
Did you listen?
Did you listen?
No one thought as much
Expectation was so tough
Did you listen?
Did you listen?
People like them
Think they understand
Look at them laughing inside

[Chorus: Madelaine Hart]
And the white coats are coming for the clever ones
Hide your books
My boy
And the white coats are coming for the clever ones
Hide your books
My boy

[Outro: Madelaine Hart]
Da-da-dum, da-da-dum
Da-da-dum, da-da-dum
Da-da-dum, da-da-dum
Da-da-dum, da-da-dum
