"Idiots and the rich" is a song by LorD and Master about the idea that the only people who seem to be happy in life are stupid people and rich people and, more often than perhaps not, people who are both.
Lyrics
Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces Ignorance is bliss When you decline the races Happiness comes from not knowing why Ceasing to care until you die All of your days filled with peace All of your nights filled with sleep Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces Ignorance is bliss When you decline the races Life is a bitch When it puts you through your paces Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces Pity or envy Jealous or free Whatever it is, you get to me I hate that you seem so smug Out of your tree on this drug Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces Ignorance is bliss When you decline the races Life is a bitch When it puts you through your paces Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces 'cause life's a bitch Unless you're rich And life's a pain When you use your brain Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces Ignorance is bliss When you decline the races Life is a bitch When it puts you through your paces Idiots and the rich Have smiles on their faces
