Happy Idiot Lyrics

von TV On The Radio

Stuck in the shade
Where there's no sunshine
I don't wanna play
With them other kids in the sun.

Since you left me, babe,
It's been a long way down
Yeah, you left me, babe
It's been a long way down.

What you don't know won't hurt you, yeah
Ignorance is bliss
I'm a happy idiot
Waving at cars.
I'm gonna bang my head to the wall
‘Till I feel like nothing at all
I'm a happy idiot
To keep my mind off you.
Stuck in a daze and I've lost my mind
I don't wanna stay
Where the blame's all mine.

Since you left me, babe,
It's been a long way down
Yeah, you left me, babe
It's been a long way down.

So, I shut it off.
So, I shut it all off.
So, I shut it off.
So, I shut it all off.

It's been a long way down.
It's been a long way down.

What you don't know won't hurt you, yeah
Ignorance is bliss
I'm a happy idiot
Waving at cars.
I'm gonna bang my head to the wall
‘Till I feel like nothing at all
I'm a happy idiot
To keep my mind off you.
To keep my mind off you.
To keep my mind off you.
