She's moving her lips. She's making sounds
She's pointing her finger and waving her arms around
She's getting louder and louder and louder
I do the only thing I can
I nod my head. I pretend to understand
She's getting calmer, taking deep breaths
She's starting to smile. I know it's a test
When she asks a question, I do the very best that I can
I nod my head. I pretend to understand
Nodding your head can work miracles
Nod your head and everyone else agrees
With whatever they want to think
Or whatever they want to see
Pretending to understand saves time and energy
Do I look like Einstein? Do I look like I care?
Would you stop talking if I wasn't here?
It goes on and on and on. I do the only thing that I can
I nod my head. I pretend to understand
Did I just say yes or did I disagree?
What have I done now; what does it mean?
It goes on and on and on. I do the very best that I can
I nod my head. I pretend to understand
It goes on and on and on. I do the very best that I can
I nod my head. I pretend to understand
