lyrics

You won’t know you are stupid
If you’re stupid enough
You won’t know you’re no good
If you are a bluff
When you don’t know what you’re thinking
It’s easy to be tough
You don’t know what you are missing
If you don’t know your stuff

You can’t know your incorrect
You won’t know that you’re inept
It is hard to self-percept
When you don’t know what to expect
What is this brain defect?
The Dunning-Kruger effect
//: Dunning-Kruger effect. Oh-la-la-la ://

When he was arrested
He said: ”But I wore the juice”
And he was flabbergasted
I read in the news
Yes, he wore the lemon juice
So how’d they found a way?
How did they see his face?
Now he’s locked away

When you lack competence
You can gain confidence
Cause your incompetence
Causes this consequence
Why this lack of intellect?
The Dunning-Kruger effect
//: Dunning-Kruger effect. Oh-la-la-la ://

//: He wore the juice
The lemon juice
How was there a way
To see his face
To see his face
Now he’s locked away ://

When you’re not all that smart
Not exactly off the charts
It is normal that you start
To think with your heart
That you’re state of the art
Perhaps a new Descartes
A warrior taking part
In intellectual martial art
But you really should suspect
The Dunning-Kruger effect
//: Dunning-Kruger effect. Oh-la-la-la ://
