Everybody tells me that it's so hard to make it
It's so hard to break in, there's no way to fake it
Everybody tells me that it's wrong what I'm feelin'
I shouldn't believe in the dreams that I'm dreamin'
I hear it every day
I hear it all the time
I'm never gonna amount to much
But they're never gonna change my mind, no
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Like, how many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile?
Get you not treat me like a child, baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know
(Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know)
(Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know)
Everybody tells me I don't know I'm doing
This life I'm pursuing, the odds I'll be losing
Everybody tells me that it's one in a million, no
One in a billion, oh, one in a zillion
I hear it every day
I hear it all the time
I'm never gonna amount to much
But they're never gonna change my mind, no
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Like, how many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile?
Get you not treat me like a child, baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know
(Selena, hit the track like Katrina, makin' waves)
(Like Cold Medina make 'em say, "I'm ready") what?
(Are you ready for it?) Yeah, I'm ready for it
(Really ready for it?) Yeah, I'm ready for it (for it, for it)
I'm on my way
I know I'm gonna get there someday
It doesn't help when you say, "It won't be easy"
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know
Something I don't know, something I don't know (yeah)
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know (tell me)
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Like, how many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile?
Get you not treat me like a child, baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know (tell me)
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know (tell me, yeah)
Something I don't know, something I don't know
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know (tell me)
Something I don't know (tell me), something I don't know (tell me)
