People Don’t Know Lyrics by Drapht

The Life of Riley

2011

[Intro]
(People don't know
Too many people
Not enough reason
No, people
They don't know
Too many people
Not enough reason
No, people
They don't know. Don't know)

[Verse 1]
Grandpa was a fighter
What you mean you never seen him fighting?
'Cause you were too busy being a seed
Inside another seed inside him
He would die for your freedom so you're free to
Play your PS3 and carry on sleeping
Dreaming of meeting Justin Bieber
He dreams of screaming and cheating the reaper
And when you gonna notice? They'd rather
Leave a building empty than go and give it to the homeless
If home is where the heart is
Are they heartless? Is their heart made up of garbage?
I'm asking the question and they dance around the
Answer, looking like George Bush for suggestions
Need less aggression, less aggravation, more education
'Cause people don't know

[Chorus]
(Too many people
Not enough reason
No) Ladies and gentlemen, they don't know
Nah people, they don't know (People, they don't know)
(Too many people
Not enough reason
No) Nah nah nah see they don't know
Nah people they don't know (People, they don't know. Don't know)

[Verse 2]
Nah, they say ignorance is bliss
I reckon it's the kiss of death
And I want to wish you the best, wish you the best in the
Better set of the best, better than sink grenades
So you can get it together and let me know what you saying
But they don't wanna piece and put the beat down
Wanna lack on the drummer from a
Def Leppard I reckon you take a second to think
Before you stick in your neck and fucking stepping to me!
Too many back seat drivers
Thinking I write this shit for them, uh
No license to even talk
You got no one even listening in, nobody wanna
Hear, nobody wanna know
This ain't 90210, this ain't Beverly
Hills, I'm ready like Freddie with the machete
For anyone that's spaghetti 'cause the people don't know!

[Chorus]
(Too many people
Not enough reason
No) Ladies and gentlemen, they don't know
Nah people, they don't know (People, they don't know)
(Too many people
Not enough reason
No) Nah nah nah see they don't know
Nah people they don't know (People, they don't know. Don't know)

[Verse 3]
You can see the difference with you and me
I'd rather watch the news than the food I eat
And while you're busy with your beauty sleep
I'm living up till midnight like Judas Priest, just trying
To see that I walk through the eyes of the Sudanese
With no sleep and nothing to eat either
Need to know to let go of the
Beef like Peter, know that no low blow
Below the belt won't help them see
A world with no good like a world with no leader
We don't need no greener grass
We living in the same Australia
Perth and Adelaide ain't for you
Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane too
But if you know where you'd rather be then
Go, problem is that people don't know
(Don't know, don't know
People they don't know.)

[Chorus]
(Too many people
Not enough reason
No) Ladies and gentlemen, they don't know
Nah people, they don't know (People, they don't know)
(Too many people
Not enough reason
No) Nah nah nah see they don't know
Nah people they don't know (People, they don't know. Don't know)
