The truth runs deep, wisdom comes late in the game.

lyrics

Wisdom Before Beauty Ray T Wilcox

Wisdom before beauty, knowledge before youth
Used to be such a cutie, now you speak the truth

Back before I knew you in my frivolous past,
I was sure all this would last
What I never thought of, didn’t occur to me
When you went and bought up, you changed in pedigree

Wisdom before beauty, knowledge before youth
Used to be such a cutie, now you speak the truth

Time passes through as we go our separate ways
Now when I think back and reflect on younger days
Innocence brings freedom, I can’t crumble now,
Curious which way you went, can’t help but wonder how

Wisdom before beauty, knowledge before youth
Used to be such a cutie, now you speak the truth

You point your finger skirt responsibility
Aim you high handed glare at me
You’re looking down on the common peeps
Jettison them to rubbish heaps

Wisdom before beauty, knowledge before youth
Used to be such a cutie, now you speak the truth
