Hey, Pearl, what's bugging you, girl?
(Too much knowledge, Frank
Too much knowledge) explain it to me
(Well, it was down at school
At the age of six) one of the real quiz kids
(yeah, so did reason and lightning touch)
Usual thought
(As time went on, I studied lots of, oh
The other things) uh huh, like a
(No, most of them didn't hurt much)
Well, I've had other teachers
(Well I got my diploma
I was real real smart)
In a pretty frame, huh?
(Of my knowledge there was no doubt)
That's pretty obvious
(yeah but lately I've had the same
Like in your words too)
(It wasn't even a thought
Let me tell you what I found out now)
Look at the size of my ears, pour it on
(You know it started with a man) uh huh!
(And the man he was grand)
Ain't that the truth
(He had a lie that would make a bird sing)
This kid really came on, I can see that
'Cause you were much too smart to
Be afraid at the start
(Frank, a little learnin' is
A dangerous thing)
Well, I'd like to hear some more
(First he only wanted two) to?
(Then he changed it to few)
Oh, you mean loot
(I even loaned that man my watch and my ring)
Oh, you lost your head, Pearl, completely
'Cause you were hip to the fact that
He would pay you right back
(Yep, a little learning is a dangerous thing)
Uh huh yes, with his sweetheart
His so discreet heart (Oh Frank
He had me doing things that I shouldn't do)
That cad, ain't no denying
So sense in trying (Let me tell you
It is just as bad my
Education's been like some book)
Bet you had an encyclopedia
(Yet now I know the score at last)
So I'm happy for you
(I'm an gal with a past that left my
Head hot and perched in a sling)
You mean you got yourself in hock?
(Yes, it's understood that brother
Gypped me but good)
(A little learning) can be a dangerous thing
Yeah girl that's the kind of stuff
You gotta watch out for
(Oh makes me so nervous)
That's right, it shakes you up
