[Verse 1]
I've been straight-As since beginning of Grade School
4.0 GPA and a college grant, too
Correcting the teacher is a notable feature
Reminding them my daddy earns more than you
And, oh, I'm not a product of my insecurities
On the contrary, I'm a cannonball
A personality of unscrupulous scrutiny

[Chorus]
I'm a genius
I'm really fuckin' smart
I'm a genius
Oh, I'm really smart

[Bridge]
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-bum
Ba-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-bum
Ba-da-dum

[Verse 2]
Now I'm sixteen and I'm mastering history
Aquatic biology, geography, too
Taking notes, so everybody can know
On this test, I'm gonna score higher than you
And, oh, I'm not a product of my insecurities
I'm just wondering why I wasn't invited to the end of year high-school party
It's probably 'cause

[Chorus]
I'm a genius
I'm really fuckin' smart
I'm a genius
Oh I'm really smart
I am really smart

[Verse 3]
When I enter in the room, everybody hides and ducks
Probably 'cause they think, I'm an annoying little genius
I don't know what I've done to deserve this
Envy is a plague and they all have got the black death
Now I'm twenty and my life is gettin' slower
I don't know why I can't compete
I've been cruising like this since I can remember
The simple challenges I can't complete
Oh, I'm starting to succumb to my insecurities
Maybe grade school was the place where I peaked

[Bridge]
Buh-ba, buh-ba
Buh-ba, buh-ba
Buh-ba, buh-ba
Buh-ba, buh-bum
Buh-bum, buh-bum
Buh-ba, buh-bum
Buh-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-bum-bum

[Verse 4]
I think I've made a mistake
The first mistake I've ever made
I'm not a genius
I'm not even that smart
But one thing is true
I'm smarter than you

[Outro]
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
Ba-da-da-da-dum
I'm smarter than you
I'm smarter than you
Ba-ba
Ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dum
And I've learned my lesson
