if we mistake our wisdom for true fact
we end up in the soup and no mistake
that is the way to give all things a shake

you'd think that we would show a little tact
or give the ones who follow a fair break
if we mistake our wisdom for true fact

so much will ride on whether we have backed
our rapid action on something not fake
since nothing's left but to get on the make
if we mistake our wisdom for true fact
