"Ignorance Is Beautiful" Lyrics

The revolution will not be televised and television will not be revolutionized
The first critic who steps up to scrutinize is the next contestant to get euthanized
They try to put my whole life on display
And when I got a job you know I don't delay
You ain't a pro in the game you procrastinate
From Tokyo to the Golden Gate
Bang from the general
Bang from the tank
Bang bang from el Capitain
Bang from the left rank
Hold a lotta weight I got a lot of bread to make
I gotta find a better way to make a million in a day
Batter batter swing when I'm at the plate
Said a lot of things but I won't be fake
Walkin' with God tryin' to get me saved
But the devil's on my shoulder showin' me the way
A to the B centuries of defeat, enemies of the free
Who believe what they read and they say what they see
But they see with the same eyes of the enterprise tellin' lies to me

Help me
Because I wanna warn the citizens
Every one's only guilty of their innocence
Freedom
Its just business as usual
Ugly
The ignorant are looking beautiful
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (x4)

I'm so ugly but my mommly loves me
And you're girlfriend fucks me cause I'm making so much money
I'm a pimp, pimp that's what I think
Now go into the bar and grab me a drink
Nicotine amphetamines will make you feel better
A little bit of juice and a little amaretto
No one ever said it better
I never knew love but I knew each letter
L for the ladies O for the ovary's V for vagina E for the ecstasy
See see wanna TV and a star on the boulevard of easy street
Please me, appease me, now go and grab a friend come back and tease me
Gotta 40 inch screen for 40 of my friends
Oh Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz
For 40 days and 40 nights it rained like a mother fucker
Sun is comin' out ya better run for cover sucker

Help me
Because I wanna warn the citizens
Every one's only guilty of their innocence
Freedom
Its just business as usual
Ugly
The ignorant are looking beautiful
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (x4)

I'm so ugly but my mommy loves me
And you're girlfriend fucks me cause I'm makin' so much money
White collar, stainless scholar
Blame this on these nameless fathers
Dollars brought our pioneers
Who sells us threats and buy our fears
I sell my soul on dirty wheels, dirty mic's and dirty needles
Hit me, kill me, get me ill, man give me something I can feel

Help me
Because I wanna warn the citizens
Every one's only guilty of their innocence
Freedom
Its just business as usual
Ugly
The ignorant are looking beautiful
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (x4)
