Indigo child

"Indigo child" is a song by LorD and Master inspired by a piece about so-called Indigo children by the British journalist Jon Ronson in his book Lost at Sea. Indigo children are supposedly highly-evolved humans who are reported to exhibit signs of super-human abilities, such as telepathy and ESP, though these claims are refuted and the children involved are often diagnosed with mental disorders.

Lyrics

I sit here blinking
Do you know what I'm thinking
Are you in tune with me
Is this your ESP
Extra-sensory perception
Or is it deception
Gullible family
Or just ADHD

You seem so strange
You seem so wild
Indigo child
You seem to have
Your innocence defiled
Indigo child

I don't know if you're truly
Mystical or unruly
I disagree with them
Bring out the DSM
Get a diagnosis
For this psychosis
You'll spend your life depressed
Unless you get NHSed

It's all a great 
Mystery
Indigo child
Could you live life
As well as me
Indigo child
