Ignorance Is Bliss
Ignorance is bliss.
So you want to keep me in igorance
Keep me in a mist
So when I get paid
I get blitzed
So you want to keep me in ignorance
I am of no importance
Daily ways, daily trance
Battered, exposed, no utterance
So you want to keep me in ignorance
My root now my branches
My head detached
My soul departed
You eat the food
I plant the grain
And we repeat this
Time and time again
So they keep us in ignorance
Not knowing which part to play
No ways, no means, no guidace
Strife, heartache, pestilence
Once you learn to know
Another seed will grow
Branches bearing the harvest
With a future of certainty
Clearing clouds of dubious gaits
Ushering in a new dawn.
