I live in a place … Where intelligence Is dissed And ignorance Is bliss Where refusing To be forced into a box Is taking a questionable risk And if you Step out of place All eyes will shift Where accepting the life You’ve been assigned Is just a formality And you’re constantly being Criticized for your individuality I live in a place … Where you have to Play your role The stage is set So forget about Your own goals Do what you’ve been told And you just might make it But until you do You’ll have to fake it So secretly read up Ingest all you can The only way to Escape ignorance Is to devise an Intelligent plan

Ignorance Is Bliss
I live in a place … Where intelligence Is dissed And ignorance Is bliss Where refusing To be forced into a box Is taking a questionable risk And if you Step out of place All eyes will shift Where accepting the life You’ve been assigned Is just a formality And you’re constantly being Criticized for your individuality I live in a place … Where you have to Play your role The stage is set So forget about Your own goals Do what you’ve been told And you just might make it But until you do You’ll have to fake it So secretly read up Ingest all you can The only way to Escape ignorance Is to devise an Intelligent plan
