Now I know

Why they said not to cut the blue wire

Now I know

I know that I only wish I

Could reach my hand into the past

Prevent the die from being cast

That made it so

Now I know



If there's one thing I can't stand

It's when I stand corrected, hat in hand

But that's untrue, for there are two

There's one more thing that I can't stand

That the amount of things is wrong

And it will have to be revised



Now I'm wise

It's the red wire I see that now

Because I'm wise

I only wish that there were any wires

Left to cut at all

Then I'd be set

It takes a tall man to admit

He once was small

But now I know
