Song Lyrics

I never asked, for reasons I can't think of
Each time I fell in love, it was enough
I never thought what might be waiting
Right past the mating, things might get rough
All I sawhow sweet she's looking
All I knew the girl stole my heart
I didn't see what might be cooking
Before you get burned
Remember this before you start

What you don't know won't hurt you
What you choose to ignore is up to you
What you don't seedon't disturb you
But when you find outyou're gonna wish you never knew

Now you might say that don't seem too important
Not while you're courting but later on
What's in the closet, beneath the hunting vest?
Behind the tool chest? a bag of bones
Like a show that has been censored
You'll never know how things really are
Each day will be a new adventure
And she'll never tell
So think before you go too far

What you don't know won't hurt you
What you choose to ignore is up to you
What you don't seedon't disturb you
But when you find outyou're gonna wish you never knew

There she is looking so respectable
There she is looking so refined
An evil thoughtshe couldn't be capable
Well find out what's on the back of her mind

Sometimes it's wise to have a close inspection
Reverse direction before you're caught
There're certain ones you may want to eliminate
Reverse discriminate, have second thoughts
Too much talk, too much confusion
What to do is no longer clear
Before you have your grand delusion
Take some time off
'Cause things look great from over here

What you don't know won't hurt you
What you choose to ignore is up to you
What you don't see don't disturb you
But when you find outyou're gonna wish it was still
What you don't know
What you don't know
What you don't know
What you don't know
