Lyrics

[Verse 1]
         C                    Am
I've been straight-As since beginning of Grade School
  Em          G
4.0 GPA and a college grant, too
   C                        Am
Correcting the teacher is a notable feature
  Em                          G
Reminding them my daddy earns more than you

[Pre-Chorus]
    C
And, oh,
          A#              F
I'm not a product of my insecurities
       C               A#
On the contrary, I'm a cannonball
       F
A personali-ty of unscrupulous scrutiny

[Chorus]
      C     A#
I'm a genius
F                   C
 I'm really fuckin' smart
      A#
I'm a genius
   F           C    A# F
Oh, I'm really smart
C A# F

[Verse 2]
       C                Am
Now I'm sixteen and I'm mastering history
 Em                F
Aquatic biology, geography, too
       C              Am
Taking notes, so everybody can know
        Em
On this test,
                F
I'm gonna score higher than you

[Pre-Chorus]
    C
And, oh,
          A#              F
I'm not a product of my insecurities
         C               A#                    F
I'm just wondering why I wasn't invited to the end of year
highschool party
It's probably 'cause

[Chorus]
      C     A#
I'm a genius
F                   C
 I'm really fuckin' smart

I'm a genius
  F           C    A# F
Oh I'm really smart
            C    A# F
I am really smart

[Interlude 1]
Em
  When I enter in the room,
Am
  everybody hides and ducks
Em
  Probably 'cause they think,
Am                         Em
  I'm an annoying little genius
                           Am
I don't know what I've done  to deserve this
C                            D
Envy is a plague and they all have got the black death

[Verse 3]
        C             Am
Now I'm twenty and my life is gettin' slower
  Em               G
I don't know why I can't compete
          C                        Am
I've been cruising like this since I can remember
    Em                  G
The simple challenges I can't complete

[Pre-Chorus]
C
 Oh,
    A#                        F
I'm starting to succumb to my insecurities
      C                    A#                  F
Maybe grade school was the place where I peaked

[Interlude 2]
C                 Em         Am
 I think I've made  a mistake
C                 Em              Am
 The first mistake  I've ever made
C            Em
 I'm not a genius
Am C             Em
    I'm not even that smart
Am
  But one thing is true
I'm smarter than you
