What Do I Know?

Ed Sheeran is not known as a political singer; he just wants to play songs. As a singer-songwriter without an university education he feels that many would see him as unqualified to pontificate about the world's problems. However, here he joins those who want to change the world peacefully, by suggesting that love has a powerful effect on the world. I'm just a boy with a one-man show No university, no degree, but lord knows Everybody's talking 'bout exponential growth And the stock market crashing and their portfolios While I'll be sitting here with a song that I wrote Sing, love could change the world in a moment But what do I know? Sheeran sarcastically asks why should people listen to him over those with an education.
