Blind Leading The Blind

Blind Leading The Blind

Dance Hall Crashers
(album: The Old Record (1989-1992))

goals turned toward consumption away from the way we think.
we´re more concerned about what´s in our pockets than the water that we drink.
apathy increasing where skepticism once prevailed.
ignorance covering the youth like a bride´s white veil.

it´s the blind leading the blind, happens all the time
in our politics and our schools, now it´s time to wake up, before we end up fools.

convenience is the rule, in life from day to day.
reduction of ambition is becoming the way.
education lowers its standards in an attempt to be fair.
lack of encouragement causes students not to care.

it´s the blind leading the blind, happens all the time
in our politics and our schools, now it´s time to wake up, before we end up fools.

wake up and smell the coffee, separate the fiction from the fact.
look at the world today and you´ll see it´s time to act.
changing one´s actions is certainly a start
but only if the change comes truly from the heart.

it´s the blind leading the blind, happens all the time
in our politics and our schools, now it´s time to wake up, before we end up fools.
