I see a clinic full of cynics
Who want to twist the peoples' wrist
They're watching every move we make
We're all included on the listThe lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylumNo nuclear the cowboy told us
And who am I to disagree
'Cause when the madman flips the switch
The nuclear will go for meThe lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylumI've seen the faces of starvation
But I just can not see the points
'Cause there's so much food here today
That no one wants to take awayThe lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum (take away my right to choose)
The lunatics have taken over the asylum (take away my point of view)
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum (take away my dignity,)
The lunatics have taken over the asylum (take away my family)
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
