they say to move along, but it's hard to move along    when something's not right with my air   they say to get along, but it's hard to get along    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?
