Numb the old, take away their lives And their gold, make them sacrifice Give them all those pills now We just want our peace now Make them enjoy playing bingo Somewhere over the rainbow, yes Numb the old, take away their lives And their gold, make them sacrifice Treat them as if they weren't human It's the legal way of killin', oh Tie them down to their beds Forget they ever did a thing for us Numb the old, take away their lives And their gold, make them sacrifice So we put the old in places we dare call homes Stuff them with pills, pills that if we took We wouldn't be allowed to drive We wouldn't be able to work Or even think straight But as long as we As long as we can go about our lives We just let them waste away Until one day it's our turn Oh yes, oh God, have mercy on us all God have mercy on us all
