Artist/Band: Robert Palmer
Lyrics for Song: Mr. Wise Guy
Lyrics for Album: Rhythm & Blues [1999]



Who'd ever guess to look at her?

They say she's a dancer but they don't fool me

You thought you knew it all, cos you'd been there

Thought she was a flirt you didn't know her



You kissed the girls and made them cry

You thought you would be only "Hello-Goodbye"

But now a twist of love has changed your world

Till I kissed her I was just another wise guy



You thought you were so cool

(Wise guy)

You had all the right moves



You said "beware she'll break your heart"

She's about to turn around and prove you wrong

You thought you had the map, she's off the chart

Try to keep up with her if you're such a wise guy



Her kisses gave you the clue

(Wise guy)

And now you know what to do



Didn't gamble, never won a prize

Rush to judgement and you pay the price

How could you presume to be qualified

If it bit you wouldn't recognise it!



You said love was for fools

(Wise guy)

Then she broke all your rules



Who'd ever guess to look at her

They she's a teaser but they can't fool me

Because I met my match when I met her;

Hast la vista Mr wise guy



You misjudged her so eat humble pie

Your opinion wasn't justified

You were cautious, you'd been hurt inside

Wouldn't risk it so you just criticised her



You said love was for fools

(Wise guy)

But love knows better than you

(Wise guy)



You thought you were so cool

(Wise guy)

But now we know who's the fool

(Mr Wise guy)
