The 13th Floor Elevators — You Don't Know - Original lyrics

Lyrics

There You are again,
Standing down below me,
Honestly believing that there’s something you could show me,
While deep within your mind is what you give to me to know me.
And you don’t know,
You don’t know,
You don’t know how young you are
Her eyes are filled with coral snakes
and liquid plastic castles,
Her daily life revolves around a thousand petty hassles,
Corny dogs and window panes fixed with silver tassels,
And you don’t know,
You don’t know,
You don’t know how young you are
If I knew what’s right for you,
you would not think about it,
And if I knew the truth from you,
I’d truly stand and shout it,
There’s better things that you could be,
There is no doubt about it
And you don’t know,
You don’t know,
You don’t know how young you are
You don’t know (How young you are now)
You don’t know (How young you are now)
You don’t know (How young you are now)
You don’t know (How young you are now)
