I was driving on the freeway in the fast lane with a rabid wolverine in my
underwear when suddenly a guy behind me in the back seat popped right up
and cupped his hands across my eyes I guessed, "Is it Uncle Frank or
Cousin Louie? Is it Bob or Joe or Walter? Could it be Bill or Jim or Ed
or Bernie or Steve?" I probably would have kept on guessing but
about that time we crashed into the truck And as I'm laying bleeding there
on the asphalt finally I recognize the face of my hibachi dealer who
takes off his prosthetic lips and tells me CHORUS Everything you know is
wrong Black is white, up is down and short is long And everything you
thought was just so important doesn't matter Everything you know is
wrong Just forget the words and sing along All you need to understand
is Everything you know is wrong I was walkin' to the kitchen for some
Golden Grahams when I accidentally stepped into an alternate
dimension and soon I was abducted by some aliens from space who kinda
looked like Jamie Farr They sucked out my internal organs and they took
some Polaroids and said I was a darn good sport and as a way of saying thank
you, they offered to transport me back to any point in history that I would
care to go, And so I had them send me back to last Thursday night so I
could pay my phone bill on time Just then the floating disembodied head of
Colonel Sanders started yellin' CHORUS I was just about to mail a letter
to my evil twin when I got a nasty paper cut and, well, to make a long
story short, it got infected and I died so now I'm up in heaven with St.
Peter by the pearly gates and it's obvious he doesn't like the Nehru jacket
that I'm wearing He tells me that they've got a dress code Well, he lets
me into heaven anyway, but I get the room next to the noisy ice
machine for all eternity and every day he runs by screaming Everything
you know is wrong Black is white, up is down and short is long And
everything you used to think was so important doesn't really matter anymore,
because the simple fact remains that Everything you know is wrong Just
forget the words and sing along All you need to understand is Everything
you know is wrong (Everything you know is) Everything you know is wrong
