Iâm pleased to meet you boys, you know itâs been a while
Since I have had to fake delight just to raise a smile
Youâre squeezing hands and squeezing hits as good as anyone
And everybodyâs numb
Yeah, everybodyâs numb
And the sunâs been slowly setting on your golden age
And youâll recheck the figures but youâll skip the page
Where the one thing that wonât fit into your final sum
Is everybodyâs numb
Yeah, everybodyâs numb
And all the noise youâre making sounds just like the rest
Salute the founders of the united states of emptiness
You can roll your eyes and write me off as paranoid
Tell me under Gucci suits lie twisted girls and tortured boys
But nothing gets my back up quite like martyrdom
When everybodyâs numb
And all the noise youâre making sounds just like the rest
Salute the founders of the united states of emptiness
So send your armies out into the real world
Reciting lines from nursery rhymes, singing like a jailbird
âCause every Caesar needs a tranquiliser gun
Then everybodyâs numb
Yeah, every Ghandi needs his own Napoleon
Then everybodyâs numb
Yeah, everybodyâs numb
Sure, everybodyâs numb
Yeah, everybodyâs numb
