IQ’s PARADOX

They put you in a chair
And this is what they do
They give you a pen and paper
And start grading your I.Q.

They put you in a chair
And this is what they do
They give you a pen and paper
And start grading your I.Q.
“What’s the difference between the ocean and the sea?”
“What’s the difference between the numbers 41 and 23?”
I don’t know! And neither do you
But this is what happens
When they’re grading your I.Q.
“What’s the theory of relativity all about?”
“How far must you walk into a forest before you’re walking out?”
I don’t care! And neither do you
But this is what happens when they’re grading your I.Q.
If they can figure out that two-square equals four
Then they ought to get together and end the threat of nuclear war
“What’s the difference between a saucer and a cup?”
Who cares if the universe’s expanding
If our world’s blowing up
“What’s the difference between the numbers 41 and 23?”
I don’t know! And neither do you
But this is what happens
When they’re grading your I.Q.

Then they ought to get together and end the threat of nuclear war
“What’s the difference between a saucer and a cup?”
Who cares if the universe’s expanding
If our world’s blowing up
I don’t care! And neither should you
Instead of trying to save our world
They’re grading our I.Q.’s
Instead of trying to save our world
They’re grading our I.Q.’s
