      There is something I don't know
      that I am supposed to know.
      I don't know what it is I don't know,
      and yet am supposed to know,
      and I feel I look stupid
      if I seem both not to know it
      and not know what it is I don't know.

      There I pretend I know it.
      This is nerve-rackin
      since I don't know what I must pretend to know.
      Therefore I pretend to know everything.

      I feel you know what I am supposed to know
      but you can't tell me what it is
      because you don't know that I don't know what it is.

      You may know what I don't know, but not
      that I don't know it,
      and I can't tell you.
      So you will have to tell me everything.


      Cheers!!
