Brillant Mistake
The title comes from Elvis Costello. The idea is to get ideas out. I like community. I prefer the company of intelligent individuals. I want to be challenged with conversation and debate. I love philosophy and poli’ science but hate philosophy and poli’ science students. Reiteration somehow breeds arrogance within college walls. If you can’t form your own thought how can you grow an enormous head?
He thought he was the king of america
Where they pour coca cola just like vintage wine
Now i try hard not to become hysterical
But i’m not sure if i am laughing or crying
I wish that i could push a button
And talk in the past and not the present tense
And watch this hurtin’ feeling disappear
Like it was common sense
It was a fine idea at the time
Now it’s a brilliant mistakeElvis Costello – King Of America – Brilliant Mistake
