Lyrics

Ignorance Is Bliss

I don't even wanna know
I don't even wanna know where you've been
Or where you're going
How am I supposed to know?
How am I supposed to know if you're coming
Or you're going
I'm done
I don't even wanna know
I don't even wanna know where you've been
Or where you're going
How am I supposed to know?
How am I supposed to know if you're coming or you're going
I'm done
The morning after I got dirt on my face
And all I can think about is you
You're chasing Archie such a funny guy
And all I can think about is how he is to you
I don't even wanna know
I don't even wanna know where you've been
Or where you're going
How am I supposed to know?
How am I supposed to know if you're coming or you're going
I'm done
I'm done your game and I got nothing to do
I only miss you on a Sunday afternoon
My disaster I'm pining over you
And all I can think about is what it means to you
One, two, three, four, fuck you!
