[Verse 1]
Had a friend who rode the map
Used to be a great dancin' king
Well, I never saw his car burn down
No, he never wore a terry-cloth hat

[Verse 2]
Knew a girl who knew someone
Spoke in detail of the circles she flew around the sun
No, I never saw through this lie
No, I never saw the burns on her eyes

[Chorus 1]
You know, history does repeat endlessly
It's just that we imagine that we are someone else
With multiplied strengths
And strides of great lengths
And hearts are smarter than before

[Verse 3]
Would you believe, a bear as dumb as that
Who walks, eyes open, twice into the same trap
Never heard the gate slam shut
No, we never saw the phone line's cut

[Verse 4]
Had a friend who wove the myth
He never been fooled, never been kissed
Drawing comic strips of his pain
But he's just another sucker, standing in the rain
[Chorus 1]
You know, history does repeat endlessly
It's just that we imagine that we are someone else
With multiplied strengths
And strides of great lengths
And hearts are smarter than before

[Bridge]
Hearts are never smarter, oh
Ooooh
Hearts are never smarter oh
Ooooh
Hearts are never smarter oh
Ooooh
You know
You know

[Chorus 1]
History does repeat endlessly
It's just that we imagine that we are someone else
With multiplied strengths
Strides of great lengths
Hearts are smarter than before

[Chorus 2]
History does repeat endlessly
It's just that we imagine that we are someone else
With arrow-proof coats
Foolish bravery rising in our throats
