Everything I need to know I learned from OkGo

edited November -1 in OK Go
I got this idea from a Beatles site. It was something like the Top 50 things I’ve Learned from the Beatles. 50? Come on! We can do better than that! What are the top things you’ve learned from Ok Go? To participate all you have to do is take a random line from any Ok Go song and give us the line and the name of the song in parenthesis.

I’ll start us off. Here are 5 things I’ve learned from those ingenious boys known as Ok Go.

1. We ought to buy you a Cadillac! (Get Over It)
2. Don’t be so damn benign, Don’t waste my fucking time! (Don’t Ask Me)
3. You don’t love me at all, but don’t think that it bothers me at all (You’re So Damn Hot)
4. Sweetheart, you’ll find mediocre people to exceptional things all the time (What to Do)
5. The fix is in (The Fix is in)
