Ignorance |
| Don’t wanna read the paper |
| I don’t like bad news |
| Last night a man got shot |
| Outside the house of blues |
| I’d like to ignore it |
| I’d like to just pretend |
| That the reason for it |
| Is something I can comprehend |
| I don’t listen to the radio |
| Last time it made me cry |
| Two boys went crazy |
| Fifteen kids died |
| And I don’t know their families |
| I don’t ask 'em how they’re going |
| They’re on the other side of the world |
| But it’s way too close to home |
| I’ve got something to say |
| And I thought it might be worth a |
| Mention |
| If you’re not pissed off at the world |
| Then you’re just not paying attention |
| And you can turn off the tv |
| And go about your day |
| But just cause you don’t see it |
| It don’t mean it’s gone away hey |
| We don’t talk to our neighbours |
| They’ve got funny coloured skin |
| We see 'em out on the sidewalk |
| But we don’t invite 'em in |
| We only eat when we’re hungry |
| And we throw the rest away |
| While babies in Cambodia |
| Are starving everyday |
| We risk our lives |
| We hit our wives |
| We act like everything is funny |
| We hide our pain |
| While we go insane |
| We sell our souls for money |
| We curse our mums |
| We build our bombs |
| We make our children cry |
| We watch the band |
| While Vietnam |
| Just watch their children die |
