Chapter And Verse

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I got the dictionary in my hand But I can't seem to find the word I'm looking for I've checked every letter, now I'm up to z There just ain't anymore I've got a million choices in my head If I could only chose the one that says it best I shelled out a quarter for a greeting card Now I can't seem to get my pen to do the rest [Chorus] But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, every word But it's so deep inside it can't be heard [Verse 2] I've got the Sunday paper in my hand And I've been working on the weekly cryptogram I know there's a message in between the lines That's the same way I am I got the crossword puzzle half complete But now I need another word four letters long It's just like the way I want a perfect fit I can settle for less but all of them are wrong [Chorus] But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, every word But it's so deep inside it can't be heard [Bridge] There could be no jealousy over my poetry It's my weakest quality, no vocabulary [Verse 3] I got the Scrabble letters in a pile But there could never be enough to say it all I know you don't wanna hear the same old line So you'll just have the read the writing on the wall [Chorus] And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, every word But it's so deep inside it can't be heard [Outro] And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, every word And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, every word But I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, every word And I know it all by heart, chapter and verse I'll quote you any part, yes I will, every word Yes I know it all, know it all, I know it all by heart...
