The Same Mistake

We Are Scientists

For every catastrophe I've overthought
It takes some gymnastics to think I'm so smart
Perception's elastic and like it or not
It's really the last thing that's kept us apart

It's the same mistake
Just ask anyone
I've always made
Just ask anyone
Just ask anyone

No, you don't like to wait, so I'll tell you right now
You present any case, I'll have figured it out
And it always sounds great coming out of my mouth
I'm forever mistaken, but never in doubt

It's the same mistake
Just ask anyone
I've always made
Just ask anyone
Just ask anyone

It's the same mistake
Just ask anyone
I've always made
Just ask anyone
Just ask anyone
Just ask anyone
Just ask anyone
