Ignorance Is Bliss
Our leaders tout freedom and democracy
But a wolf in sheep's clothing is plain to see
What's all that clamoring that separates me from you ?
That divides us like it's supposed to do ?
"We're the chosen ones" we all chime in
Looks like "divide and conquer" has worked again
Making our case time after time
Tethered to a party line
We look away from things we don't wanna know
We cultivate the status quo
You better be careful what you do
You'll be ostracized for tellin' the truth
Look away from things too scary to see
Embrace ulterior fantasy
Ignore those things so easy to dismiss
Look away - after all - ignorance is bliss
If they could see what was happening today
Our Founding Fathers would roll in their graves
The Constitution they fought so hard to create
Dismembered by globalist imperial mandate
Now an evil supergenius lurks in the shadows
But just where he is nobody knows
A cave-squatting mastermind, we're told to believe
Can somehow outwit the powers that be
repeat chorus ...
The propaganda keeps coming like a river it flows
The bunkum and twaddle we've all come to know
Evil doer fairy tales star in the show
But common sense eclipses the yee-haw manifesto
As for the voice of the people
The silence is deafening
The think tanks have cast them
In a role quite flattering
repeat chorus ...
Our leaders tout freedom and democracy
But a wolf in sheep's clothing is plain to see
The noble lie not only lives, it is loved
People will defend the fight
When push comes to shove
But warned many times we have been and one things for sure
There will be no sayin'
That we didn't see it comin'
