Longboy Letra

with what's going on over there
and maybe the boy with the lead in his side
needs attention for without it he'll surely die
but ignorance is bliss and it's something we'll miss
should we choose to open up both of our eyes

so I says, "you've been hit, how hard does it hurt?"
and he says, "not as bad as the two in my back"
and I said, "I find it pretty hard to move
with this subjection around my neck"

maybe the boy with the lead in his side
would like to get a chance to tell his side
cause ignorance is bliss and it's something we'll miss
should we choose to open up both of our eyes
you know i'm having these symptoms too
is there really nothing any of us can do?

so I says, "you've been hit, how hard does it hurt?
and he says, "not as bad as the one in my lung"
and I said, "I find it pretty hard to move with this compulsion slipping off my tongue."

you know i'm having these symptoms too
is there really nothing any of us can do?
