You Don't Know

(album: The Psychedelic Sounds Of The 13th Floor Elevators - 1966)

There you are again standing down below me
Honestly believe that there is something you can show me
While deep within your mind it's what you'd give to even know me

And you don't know
You don't know
You don't know how young you are

Your eyes are filled with coral snakes and liquid plastic castles
Your daily life revolves around a thousand petty hassles
Corny dots and window panes and pink and 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 leave without it
And if I knew the truth for you, I'd surely stand and shout it
There's better things that you can 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
You don't know (how young you are now)
You don't know (how young you are now)
You don't know
You don't know
