I Know Things Now Songtext
von Danielle Ferland

Mother said, "Straight ahead, not to delay or be misled"
I should have heeded her advice, but he seemed so nice

And he showed me things, many beautiful things
That I hadn′t thought to explore
They were off my path, so I never had dared
I had been so careful, I never had cared
And he made me feel excited, well, excited and scared

When he said, "Come in" with that sickening grin
How could I know what was in store
Once his teeth were bared, though, I really got scared
Well, excited and scared, but he drew me close


And he swallowed me down, down a dark slimy path
Where lie secrets that I never want to know
And when everything familiar seem to disappear forever
At the end of the path, was granny once again

So we wait in the dark until someone sets us free
And we're brought into the light, and we′re back at the start
And I know things now, many valuable things
That I hadn't known before
Do not put your faith in a cape and a hood
They will not protect you the way that they should

And take extra care with strangers
Even flowers have their dangers
And though scary is exciting
Nice is different than good

Now I know, don't be scared
Granny is right, just be prepared
Isn′t it nice to know a lot?
And a little bit not
