I Don't Know Lyrics

Listen now to what I say
About the kids of today
Suscribe to them all your fears
'Til they become like you

What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
i don't know

So listen now to what I say
About the kids of today
Suscribe to them all your fears
'Til they become like you

Teach them all your fallacies
Contain them in reality
Suscribe to them all your fears
'Til they become like you

Then a slippage happens
In your ranks
And causes all... Your morals sank
For us to create our own
And we became like you

What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
i don't know

What poor gods we do make
What poor gods we do make
I don't know
I don't know

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

My favorite NR song. I like the frenzied guitar riff at the beginning. The song's sentiments have always eminded me of Stiff Little Fingers' "Suspect Device" sort of a veiled threat about the dangers that can come when you attempt to control people.
