There’s a laundry list of lies that we’ve all been told
Start to read between the lines as you getting old
Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, Santa Clause
Shark attacks are common, just like in the movie Jaws
You only use ten percent of your brain
Yeah, Men and women are all treated the same, yeah
You’re a kid, so you’re good at everything
You’ll make it to the NBA, no need to train
You’re not dumb, even Einstein failed math
If you wanna bе loved, then you shouldn’t get a cat
Chris Columbus was a grеat pioneer
Gum in your stomach for about seven years
Bulls get angry when they see the color red
Hair and fingernails keep growing when you’re dead
Drink milk unless you wanna stay short
Touch a toad if you wanna get warts
Chorus:
Lies, that they told them
Ignorance is bliss
Lies, that they told them
20 songs, no hits
Lies, that they told them
More, lies
Lies, that they told them
False hope, the way they tell you you’re the best
Gung-ho, the way you say sh#t with your chest
You’re still young, so no reason to worry
Have some fun in your twenties, but be married by thirty
You’re 18, so you got life figured out
Enlist in the army but you gotta find a spouse
Yes mam, the government cares about you
Yes man nobody’s ever gonna doubt you
Go to college if you wanna succeed
You’re entitled to a job just by having a degree
I’m older, you should listen to me
Schools the toughest part, after that, life’s easy
If you trust an expert, then you’re just a sheep
Spiders climb into your mouth, while you’re fast asleep
I like my myths Greek, like Icarus wings
You should definitely pee on a jellyfish sting
Chorus:
Lies, that they told them
Ignorance is bliss
Lies, that they told them
20 songs, no hits
Lies, that they told them
More, lies
Lies, that they told them
So, so many
I’d be lying too, if I said I never did it
Everybody tells lies, man who am I kidding?
Told others to believe even when I really didn’t
I’m bout to go number one if you just listen
Most people just pretend that they’re okay
They’re all actors, as if life is just a play
Nothing to it though, they take it day by day
Suffering in silence cause there’s nothing to say
Trust me friend, you’re not alone, man I get it
Won’t take a risk cause I’m scared I might regret it
Depression tryna catch me, but I swear I won’t let it
Too scared to ask for help so they post it on reddit
The media lies, The government lies
Your teachers lie, Your family lies
We’re flawed creatures, and everyone lies
Ignorance is bliss, so its normalized
Chorus:
Lies, that they told them
Ignorance is bliss
Lies, that they told them
20 songs, no hits
Lies, that they told them
More, lies
Lies, that they told them
So, so many
