You dumbed me down I was trying to be sophisticatedYou talked me round Made things less complicatedI was aiming high brow You raised your eyebrowI'm puckering up with my feet on the ground Cause you dumbed me downGive me three chords Give me three primary colorsGive me three little words We don't need any othersYou dumbed me downNo more highfalutin' You popped that balloonStraight from the head of sharpshootin'I'm not so smart I can't think with my heartI lost my frown to play the clown You dumbed me downI was aiming high brow You raised your eyebrowYou slapped me down and turned me round You dumbed me downYou slapped me down and turned me round You dumbed me downYou dumbed me down
