Ivory Layne
Socrates
[Verse 1:]
You're nestled in the corner of the library
You read encyclopedias and look for me
But baby I don’t fit inside a font or page
If you wanna know about me read the freckles on my face

Is it wrong to wanna get a confrontation?
His type in conversations never really was fun
If you wanna know about me how 'bout takin' some time
Right now you’re intelligent, but you sure ain't mi-i-ine

[Chorus:]
You're not Socrates
So why don't you stop analyzing me?
I don't like your philosophies
You're try'na shot 'em over my he-e-ad
I’m not a foolish girl, you see
I know how to find thе ready excite-y
I’m not fond of your trеatment towards me
Smarty pants, your chivalry is dead

[Verse 2:]
If I gave a letter grade to you I'd say
You wouldn’t even pass, you were absent every day
But here's a lesson, don't check out, here's why
Quit hiding in those books and join the world outside Yourself because
[Chorus:]
You’re not Socrates
So why don't you stop analyzing me?
I don't like your philosophies
You're try'na shot 'em over my he-e-ad
I'm not a foolish girl, you see
I know how to find the ready excite-y
I'm not fond of your treatment towards me
Smarty pants, your chivalry is dead

[Chorus:]
You better get it together
If this is on your head

Hey, I bet you think you're smart
Smarter than you truly are
I talk in riddles too
Who's cold as ice and a while to talk to?
Hey, I bet you think you're smart
Smarter than you truly are
Hey, I talk in riddles too
Who's cold as ice and a while to talk to?

[Chorus:]
You're not Socrates
So why don't you stop analyzing me?
I don't like your philosophies
You're try'na shot 'em over my he-e-ad
I'm not a foolish girl, you see
I know how to find the ready excite-y
I'm not fond of your treatment towards me
Smarty pants, your chivalry
You're not Socrates
So why don't you stop analyzing me?
I don't like your philosophies
You're try'na shot 'em over my he-e-ad
I'm not a foolish girl, you see
I know how to find the ready excite-y
I'm not fond of your treatment towards me
Smarty pants, your chivalry (yeah, yeah yeah)
Is dead
