Chumbawamba - Everything You Know Is Wrong Lyrics






It's like the time that this, uh, minister in Indiana claimed that the theme song for Mr. Ed, that old television show (yeah) about the talking horse (mmhmm), if you played the Mr. Ed theme song backwards it said "Satan is the source"

Misinformation
Misinformation

Taking scissors to play (beep) with the black vote down in Flordia
Coloured pens and (beep) for sexing up the (beep)
I'm the someone who knew (beep) and I'm telling pre-September
I lean on (beep) in the loop to help them un-remember

I was flying on UA 93
That shadow in the footage, it was probably me
I'm the rumour, I'm the doubt, I'm the lie
But you wouldn't stand near me if you didn't want to die

Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
There's a verse missing out of this song (misinformation)
Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
Wrong wrong, wrong wrong

I was there when they landed on the moon
In a studio in Kentucky in June
I've got Kennedy's brain in a jar
If you knew what I knew, you wouldn't laugh so hard

Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
There's a verse missing out of this song (misinformation)
Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
Wrong wrong, wrong wrong

In the canteen down at Columbine with the bags they never found
Striking matches up at Waco when they burned it to the ground
Without me Oklahoma wasn't possible at all
See my silhouette in the Super 8, around the grassy knoll

Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
There's a verse missing out of this song (misinformation)
Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
Wrong wrong, wrong wrong

Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
There's a missing out of this song (misinformation)
Everything you know is wrong (misinformation)
Wrong wrong, wrong wrong

Roger flight, we're go, he's got some, uh, nice elevated rings, which we expected, and, uh, he's really speeded it up but he looks great, let's go

Wrong wrong
Wrong wrong
Wrong wrong

I was in Paris in the underpass (wrong wrong)
I'm the FO sponsored super-grass (wrong wrong)
I'm Charlie Thrush in Minnesota (wrong wrong)
And I smuggled hep across the border (wrong wrong)
Stole Danny Casolaro's memoirs (wrong wrong)
Out the acid in the reservoirs (wrong wrong)
I'm Ron Brown's body on a T-43 (wrong wrong)
And I hid those missing WMDs (wrong wrong)

What did the president know, when did he know it?

Everything you know is, everything you know
Everything you know is, everything you know
Everything you know is, everything you know
Everything you know is, everything you know

    Taking scissors to play cut up with the black vote down in Florida
    Colored pens and glitter glue for sexing up the dossier
    I'm the someone who knew something they're not telling pre-September
    I lean on people in the loop to help them unremember
    I was flying on UA 93
    That shadow in the footage? It was probably me
    I'm the rumor, I'm the doubt, I'm the lie
    But you wouldn't stand near me if you didn't want to die
    Everything you know is wrong
    There's a verse missing out of this song
    Everything you know is wrong
    Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong

    I'm Ron Brown's body on a T-43 and I hid those missing WMDs
    What did the president know? When did he know it?
    Everything you know is, everything you know
    Everything you know is, everything you know
    Everything you know is, everything you know
    Everything you know is, everything you know

  8. C.... K....

    They might be anti-white lefty fucks, but this song is good.

  9. W.... a....

    I'm just gonna list the events mentioned in the song that I recognize

    -9/11 Terrorist Attacks
    -The Moon Landing (obvious)
    -John F. Kennedy's Assassination (obvious)
    -The Columbine High School Massacre
    -The Waco Siege
    -The Oklahoma City Bombings

    W.... a....

    Why are they not all marked as (obvious) when they all explicitly name the event in question in the lyrics?

    9/11 you get some leeway cos they only they reference a plane, but the others are literally directly named.

    Just wondering, really.

    Some less obvious ones were Princess Diana's death and the Iraq war.

  10. p.... ....

    I cant' explain why but i get a real This is Serious, Mum vibe from this song. Especially towards the end.

  11. r.... w....

    Nice one.... "Still never gave up" Never will!

  12. T.... D....

    I'm sorry that i'm replying to your post two years too late, but I love the band. I'm hitting fifty , but I've found a new love for anarchy
    !

    T.... D....

    Tom Daby it's never too late to love chumba. I still love them. they made music for everyone and no one, they are amazing.

    T.... D....

    I'm 58 and the "syndrom" got me in my 50th as well !!!... Keeps us young and curious... I guess 🤔

  13. R.... H....

    "Kennedy's brain in a jar..."
    Nobody could get away with saying something like this about Trump.

    R.... H....

    Reverend Howl how great is that image though donald trumps brain jar bragging to george washingtons brain in a jar about how great a president he was.

    R.... H....

    Alternative fact - so smart.

    R.... H....

    "Trump's brain in a jar"

    I think I just got away with it, sorry.

    R.... H....

    Yes, because trump doesn't have one.

  14. a.... a....

    So true text and nice music!

  15. C.... O....

    Eddie Bravo's theme song.

  16. p.... f....

    saw this band at a class war conference in shoreditch , skinheads attacking the door people stabbed , quite an evening .

    p.... f....

    "..saw this band at a class war conference in shoreditch..." F**king classic!! :)

  17. E.... L....

    Why is this in a columbine playlist? 😂 talk about misinformation

    E.... L....

    Reverend Howl
    I'm pretty sure it's referring to the Columbine High School Massacre in 1999 since it said "In the *canteen* down at Columbine with *bags* they never found" and the original plan Harris and Klebold (the shooters) had was to plant two *bags* filled with a 20lb propane tank bomb in the cafeteria, which can be referred to as a *canteen* , of the school in order to kill the students within.

    E.... L....

    Emmy Lynn they do mention Columbine in the lyrics. 😺😺

  18. n.... ....

    @nox5555 Yes Frank Zappa

  19. c.... ....

    I'm on a permanent quest to find the holy grail of musical verses.

    c.... ....

    "there's lies dressed up as truth and there's truth dressed up as lies, and it all ends up as stuff that you can buy on eBay"

    Chumbawamba really had some fucking iconic lines.

  20. T.... H....

    superb...

  21. B.... P....

    makes me think lone gun men x files

  22. B.... P....

    will always be true

  23. c.... c....

    Awesome cool timely.

  24. I.... D....

    STOP POLICE VIOLENCE IN VIENNA !!!

    I.... D....

    +Ich Du weil Wiener Polizei so brutal is. "Bitte leg die Waffe weg dann geht das glimpflich aus"

    I.... D....

    Or anywhere for that matter.

  25. s.... ....

    Misinformation 

  26. R.... J....

    Blackfish led me here

    R.... J....

    Ser Brynden Tully ?

    R.... J....

    Ahh no, the movie actually.

  27. m.... h....

    I knew the chumbas  in the 80's and they are usually spot on. No reason to dispute their intelligence.

    m.... h....

    @margery harper Anarchist are usually spot on...

    m.... h....

    Lol. I look after a group of anarchists every day now they are getting into old age. I love the fact that they tell me things that would never be allowed now. Forget Saga, live your old age to the full, they went through the war, spouses dying and children too, no satisfactory water cleanliness and so the old illnesses of tuberculosis, cholera and flu.
    They cannot understand vaccinations as they all got mumps, measles and all the other childhood diseases were necessary to prevent you from getting them when you were growing into adulthood.

    m.... h....

    @suicidesucks08 anarchists are often in a spot :-)

    m.... h....

    we lurve vaccinations marge, there can't be anything wrong with them cos they give them to newborn children and infants across the world so they must be safe...what was that silly rumour about the kind helpful mercury based preservative thimerosal in all jabs? these hippies make up such stories when they're stoned ;-)

  28. j.... k....

    ............................................(((((((((((((A)))))))))))))))..................................

  29. 5.... ....

    Da doop da doop da doop da doop da doop da doop da doop.

  30. n.... ....

    is it zappa in the beginning??????

  31. M.... S....

    good song, rings true when you watch news

  32. m.... h....

    for effect. They were indeed not explicit words.

  33. b.... ....

    Is this a radio edit or were the bleeps done for effect?

    b.... ....

    should be for effect ;)

  34. J.... G....

    Great tune

  35. w.... ....

    from the album 'un' take alisten if you can quality

  36. m.... h....

    That was in the original studio version.

    here are the original lyrics:

    Taking scissors to play cut up with the black vote down in Florida; coloured pens and glitter glue for sexing up the dossier. I'm the someone who knew something they're not telling pre-September. I lean on people in the loop to help them un-remember

    m.... h....

    Why were some of those words bleeped out?

    m.... h....

    GreenDay1981 Cuz censorship is one of the themes of the song

    m.... h....

    @GreenDay1981 because a verse is missing out of the song, aren't you listening?

  37. J.... P....

    why is ther the bleep sound over curse words

    J.... P....

    Justin Perry They aren't curse words. They're making it look like this song has been messed with in order to withhold information mentioned in it. "There's a verse missing out of this song." Government censorship is what the song is about.

  38. m.... h....

    Garethella is referencing a song.
    Also, despite their slight hypocrisy back in the nineties, they had very strong points as to why they signed with EMI.
    Chumbawamba still stand as my favorite band.

  39. J.... V....

    He couldn't wrap his mind around how amazing it is.

  40. p.... r....

    sorry...you gou wasted 42cents.

  41. m.... h....

    es scheint wie eine Radio-Show

  42. F.... ....

    Warum redet da am Anfang jemand ?

  43. C.... ....

    Was that Frank Zappa at the beginning?

  44. s.... s....

    the bleeped out words are not on original

  45. R.... C....

    faarkin brilliant!

  46. y.... ....

    "Everything I know is wrong." And now this statement, too, has joined the list of wrong things that I know.

  47. o.... ....

    This may be a dumb question, but are the censored out curse words part of the song or put in by who made this vid?

  48. w.... ....

    is it just me or are parts of this sung by Arthur Kirkland?

  49. L.... ....

    @GetThisThingCrunk Booglars

  50. S.... L....

    So i was like dancing in my chair swaying along....then everthing i know went wrong?

  51. O.... D....

    @elchicoaporico actually if "everything you know is wrong" is wrong than "something you know is correct" LogicTroll :)

  52. E.... ....

    Weird Al has a song with the same title, those two dislikes are Al Fans who have no sense of Sardonic humor!

  53. S.... ....

    Jesus, how did I never realize that Zappa was speaking at the start?!

  54. T.... 7....

    I chumba sono mitici non ne conosco una brutta!

  55. A.... F....

    I think this is quite possibly the funniest song I've heard in years
