I've been straight-As since beginning of Grade School
4.0 GPA and a college grant, too
Correcting the teacher is a notable feature
Reminding them my daddy earns more than you
And, oh, I'm not a product of my insecurities
On the contrary, I'm a cannonball
A personality of unscrupulous scrutiny

I'm a genius
I'm really fuckin' smart
I'm a genius
Oh, I'm really smart

Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-bum
Ba-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-bum
Ba-da-dum

Now I'm sixteen and I'm mastering history
Aquatic biology, geography, too
Taking notes, so everybody can know
On this test, I'm gonna score higher than you
And, oh, I'm not a product of my insecurities
I'm just wondering why I wasn't invited to the end of year high-school party
It's probably 'cause

I'm a genius
I'm really fuckin' smart
I'm a genius
Oh I'm really smart
I am really smart

When I enter in the room, everybody hides and ducks
Probably 'cause they think, I'm an annoying little genius
I don't know what I've done to deserve this
Envy is a plague and they all have got the black death
Now I'm twenty and my life is gettin' slower
I don't know why I can't compete
I've been cruising like this since I can remember
The simple challenges I can't complete
Oh, I'm starting to succumb to my insecurities
Maybe grade school was the place where I peaked

Buh-ba, buh-ba
Buh-ba, buh-ba
Buh-ba, buh-ba
Buh-ba, buh-bum
Buh-bum, buh-bum
Buh-ba, buh-bum
Buh-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-bum-bum

I think I've made a mistake
The first mistake I've ever made
I'm not a genius
I'm not even that smart
But one thing is true
I'm smarter than you

Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-dum
I'm smarter than you
I'm smarter than you
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
And I've learned my lesson
