Wrong People – Faye Webster

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
