[verse 1: raphael saadiq]
put a young man in an average city
had a share of problems don’t you know
just the same in the city had to go
time after time, my mama told
there’s a lot of things that you know
but thеre’s a whole lot more you need to know

[pre~chorus: raphael saadiq, tony! toni! toné!]
(monеy) have your own
(friends) just for fun
(drugs) don’t indulge
(s~x) with the right person
(work) all your days
(crime) does not pay
(love) don’t apply
(live) to live you must die
[chorus: raphael saadiq, tony! toni! toné!]
ooh, and i can’t relate (i was born not to know)
things are getting crazy, i ain’t going hazy (i was born not to know)

[verse 2: raphael saadiq]
now since i’ve grown, i’ve learned a lot more
the city hasn’t changed a bit since
doesn’t mean i have to live like this
i still can recall what my mother told me
there was a lot of things that i knew
but the ones my mother said were true

[pre~chorus: raphael saadiq, tony! toni! toné!]
(money) had my own
(friends) we had fun
(drugs) didn’t indulge
(s~x) had the right person
(work) all my days
(crime) did not pay
(love) did not apply
(live) now i live but i gotta die

[chorus: raphael saadiq, tony! toni! toné!]
and i can’t relate ’cause i was born not to know
i ain’t gonna make a fuss, i like the back of the bus
’cause i was born not to know
[interlude]
~ um, could you tell us a little something about yourself
~ well, uh, i have my b.a. from morehouse, um, i have my mba from harvard, and of course, right now presently working on my ph.d. from mit. but what i really wanna know is, can i get a job? (no!)

[verse 3: raphael saadiq]
now since i’ve grown, i’ve learned a lot more
the city hasn’t changed a bit since
doesn’t mean i have to live like this
i still can recall what my mother told me
there was a lot of things that i knew
but the ones my mother said were true

[chorus: raphael saadiq, tony! toni! toné!]
ooh, and i can’t relate ’cause i was (born not to know)
things are getting crazy, i ain’t going hazy (i was born not to know)
[outro: tony! toni! toné!]
i was born not to know
i was born not to know
(oaktown’s in the house, oaktown’s in the house, oaktown’s in the house)
i was born not to know
(oaktown’s in the house, oaktown’s in the house, oaktown’s in the house)
i was born not to know
