I've been told by a friend Or at least I wish he was That I should go and find the best I'm not sure what that consists Chances are it's not gonna find me first Gonna have to open my eyes Discover things I don't wanna find But if you're the smartest man in the room You're hanging with the wrong people Yeah you're hanging with the wrong people Ain't nothing wrong with knowin' Way more than I should That way when I get the words I'll know exactly where it hurts Even though the comfort here feels like a home I just can't stop right here Still gotta whole lot more years But if you're the smartest man in the room You're hanging with the wrong people Yeah you're hanging with the wrong people Maybe I took what you said just a little too far Maybe I took it just far enough To help me find my way up But if you're the smartest man in the room You're hanging with the wrong people Yeah you're hanging with the wrong people Yeah you're hanging with the wrong Hanging with the wrong people
