(I Keep Thinking About) A New Thing

I keep thinking 'bout a new thing I've been trying to understand it And find ways to persuade you I don't want to simplify it Eloquence is overrated A pretty tool to neuter you But I'm wasting time, what good can I do? I jump in the fire, burn my feet and ask If it's theoretically true The narratives are so familiar A crush too much for pen and paper A misquote from a science book I can't accept your explanation A blank page, blank cheque obfuscation Played so dumb I can't bear to look But I'm wasting time, what good can I do? I keep thinking 'bout a new thing I'm repeating 'bout a new thing
