The Knack Songtext
von Mother Mother

In the school
(In the school)
(In the school)
(In the school)

In the school of love (school of love)
I was all mixed up (all mixed up)
I didn′t get it, get it, get it, yeah
I wasn't quick to pick it up

In the school of slow dance
I was shaking it too fast
I didn′t get it, get it, get it, yeah
'Cause I was always skipping class

So tell me how to do it
Tell me how to love like that (like that)
Does it take a lot of practice?
Or do you gotta have the knack? (The knack)


I really wanna do it
I really wanna love like that
But I don't wanna practice
I just wanna have the knack
(The knack, the knack, the knack)

In the race of romance
I was always coming in last
I was tripping, tripping, tripping out
On the rocky little path

In the art of the whisper
I couldn′t paint such a picture
I was screaming!
Screaming, screaming, loud
When the boy was trying to kiss her

So tell me how to do it
Tell me how to love like that
Does it take a lot of practice?
Or do you gotta have the knack?

I really wanna do it
I really wanna love like that
But I don′t wanna practice
I just wanna have the knack


I just wanna have the virtue
And I don't really wanna hurt you
Oh, baby, don′t hurt me too
I just wanna have the talent
But I don't wanna have to practice
Like they do

So tell me how to do it
Tell me how to love like that (like that)
Does it take a lot of practice?
Or do you gotta have the knack? (The knack)
I really wanna do it
I really wanna love like... that!

So tell me how to do it
Tell me how to love like that
Does it take a lot of practice?
Or do you gotta have the knack?

I really wanna do it
I really wanna love like that!
But I don′t wanna practice
I just wanna have the knack

(Knack!)
I just wanna have the knack!
I just wanna have the knack! (Knack!)
I just wanna have the knack!
I just wanna have the knack
