The Lunatics Have Taken Over The Asylum Lyrics by The Bad Shepherds

Mud, Blood & Beer

2013

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 list
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
No nuclear the cowboy told us
And who am I to disagree?
'Cause when the madman flips the switch
The nuclear will go for me
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
I'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 away
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
Take away my dignity (The lunatics have taken over the asylum)
Take these things away from me
Take away my family (The lunatics have taken over the asylum)
Take away the right to speak
Take away my point of view (The lunatics have taken over the asylum)
Take away my right to choose
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
Take away my dignity (The lunatics have taken over the asylum)
Take these things away from me
Take away my family (The lunatics have taken over the asylum)
Take away my right to speak
Take away my point of view (The lunatics have taken over the asylum)
Take away my right to choose
