I'd tell you what I learned in school today
But I forgot
Oh I forgot
Was it reading, writing, the Statue of Liberty
Counting, Indians, World Geography
Music, Art, Ancient History
But I forgot
Oh I forgot
If I could tell time what to do
To slow down or speed up to stop or go through
(If I could tell time what to do)
If I could turn back he pages of the past
I'd forget what page I'm on
My memory would be gone.
I'd tell you what I read in a book today
But I forgot
Oh I forgot
Was it the Cat in the hat or Annie and Jack
Was it Box Car Children or Captain Underpants
Was it Narnia or a book about France
Oh I forgot
Oh I forgot
If I could tell time what to do
To slow down or speed up to stop or go through
(if I could tell time what to do)
If I could turn back the pages of the past
I'd forget what page I'm on
My memory would be gone
I'll tell you what I had for lunch today
But I forgot
Oh I forgot
Was it pizza, popcorn, pasta or peas
Pancakes, peanuts, broccoli with cheese
Tofu, soymilk, sushi or Chinese
But I forgot
Oh I forgot
If I could tell time what to do
To slow down or speed up to stop or go through
(If I could tell time what to do)
If I could turn back the pages of the past I'd forget what page I'm on
My memory would be ….gone
