You say the sky is blue but they look confused
Tell them water's wet and they refuse
It's like talking to a wall no one's home
You try to spell it out but you're still alone
It's right in front of their face
But they can't seem to find their place
You draw a map you give a clue
But they still ask "What should I do?"
Some people just don't get it
No matter how you set it
You can spell it out in bold
But it's like their brain's on hold
Some people just don't see it
Though it's clear as day believe it
You can try to make it fit
But some people just don't get it
You tell them 2 plus 2 it equals four
But they're stuck at three asking for more
You say it's black and white they see it gray
No matter what you do it's the same old day
It's like they're lost without a map
You give them facts they take a nap
You shine a light they close their eyes
And then they wonder why they're surprised
Some people just don't get it
No matter how you set it
You can spell it out in bold
But it's like their brain's on hold
Some people just don't see it
Though it's clear as day believe it
You can try to make it fit
But some people just don't get it
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink
You can give them all the answers but you can't make them think
You can show them every sign put it right in their hand
But some folks just don't understand
Some people just don't get it
No matter how you set it
You can spell it out in bold
But it's like their brain's on hold
Some people just don't see it
Though it's clear as day believe it
You can try to make it fit
But some people just don't get it
So here's to those who try their best
Even when they fail the test
Just shake your head and take a breath
Some people just don't get it I guess
