Shrug - Bliss текст песни

Pregnant woman hurried by me yesterday
In the parking lot of a grocery store
Her thoughts a thousand miles away
Late for some heavy-handed destiny
Her baby force-fed toxic breakfast from her cigarette
Her boyfriend waits there in thier bruised and battered car
Open can of Schlitz between his legs and he's looking through the Evening Star
They play the lottery religiously, impatiently
They wait for Jesus on their TV set again

So the story goes
I said, "Ignorance is bliss"
Never pretty, heaven knows
But has it really come to this?
So the story goes
I said, "Ignorance is bliss"
I'd like to take you there myself
But I'm afraid of what I'd miss
If ignorance is bliss

I got a day job in some godforsaken place
Where the smell of dust and the sound of hiss
And a so-called liter in my face
Turn the treadmill on for another faceless day
Put on my sucker mask
I spend my leisure time like any sane man does
I sit and stew and think of you and wonder where the wrong turn was
I may not ever know the one damn thing for sure
I gotta, I gotta, I must get out of here for good, good, oh yeah

Oh, I want some, too
But I don't know what to do
Or how to go about believing it
I'll stack her, and I'll miss
Ignorance is bliss
Ooh, ignorance is bliss
I'm afraid of what I'd miss
Ignorance is

Just spend a day inside my shoes and you'll see what I mean
Don't wanna die or rule the world, just something somewhere in between
I wanna do something that only I can do
And leave behind a silver trail

So the story goes
I said, "Ignorance is bliss"
It's never pretty, heaven knows
But has it really come to this?
So the story goes
I said, "Ignorance is bliss"
I'd like to take you there myself
But I'm afraid of what I'd miss
Oh, ignorance is bliss, bliss
