Citizen Sane Lyrics - Joe Jackson

If you want to live forever 

Ask a doctor, someone clever 

He can put you on or get you off 

Of the drug do jour 

All you kings and martyrs 

All the little girls and boys 

Will thank you when you start us 

Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane 

If you want to make your mind up 

Ask a preacher where you'll wind up 

He can take you in or shut you out 

Of the final door 

All you kings and martyrs 

All the little girls and boys 

Will thank you when you start us 

Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane 

Hooray to be Citizen Sane in a world gone mad 

Please may we just switch all our brains on to good from bad? 

All we want's the word and we want it now 

No way do we want any pain or to feel too sad 

If you want to join a mission 

Ask the leader for permission 

He can put you down or pick you up 

Off the killing floor 

All you kings and martyrs 

All the good little girls and boys 

Will thank you when you start us 

Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane
