Ignorance is Bliss
It would be bliss if I didn’t know what had gone on
If I had never heard of the killings of Vietnam
And then I would never know that the world is so wrong
And I could just sit at home and just listen to the song
By Jack Johnson, about banana pancakes
And sit at home, snacking on frosted flakes
-chorus?-
My biggest problems would be what I view as small mistakes
Like spilling the milk, but I would cry for days
But I would never know of corruption and its ways
And I would be bliss, living in a child’s phase
And my whole life I would be in a haze,
About what is real, but it wouldn’t be a big deal
-chorus?-
I would worry about what is for the next meal
Not if I would eat, but what it would be
Starvation would never been heard of by me
And I would be chill, and I would never have to see,
That people die everyday by genocide,
Or that people pop cyanide for suicide
-chorus?-
And the only times I would ever have to hide,
Would be for a game of hide and seek
Now some people will say that this makes me week,
But this would just make me obsolete,
Useless to the world, but the world would be useless to me
If only this is how my life could be!!!
