I Told You So

I make coffee in the morning as I make my bed
I think pretty thoughts as I wash the dirt from my head
And I tie loose ends

Every day's a new day, or so says my horoscope
I can't remember the last time it's been wrong
Or so I hope that I find new soap

To wash my dirty thoughts away
To wash my filthy mouth so I can finally say
That I don't know
And I know you told me so

I get the paper in the morning as I grab my pen
Because the crossword puzzles and number games
Are the only things I can depend on
And I try to make sense of them

I wash my dirty thoughts away
I wash my filthy mouth so I can finally say
That I don't know
And I know you told me so

You said you told me so
Oh, but I know you don't know
You said, "Don't believe everything you read"
I said, "Don't worry, baby, you just gotta trust me"

Trust me to wash my dirty thoughts away
Trust me to wash my filthy mouth so I can finally say
That I don't know but I know you know
'Cause I know you told me so
Oh, trust me, baby, you told me so
A million times by now
