Citizen Sane
Unlocking Sanity's Code: Joe Jackson's Citizen Sane Revelations
Lyrics
If you want to live forever
If you desire immortality or longevity,
Ask a doctor, someone clever
Consult a knowledgeable doctor or someone intelligent,
He can put you on or get you off
They can either introduce you to or help you cease using
Of the drug do jour
The currently favored or prevalent drug
All you kings and martyrs
All individuals in positions of power and those who sacrifice themselves,
All the little girls and boys
As well as young girls and boys,
Will thank you when you start us
Will express gratitude when you initiate
Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane
A safe journey toward becoming mentally stable and rational citizens
If you want to make your mind up
If you aim to make a decision,
Ask a preacher where you'll wind up
Consult a preacher or someone knowledgeable about spiritual destiny,
He can take you in or shut you out
They can guide you towards acceptance or exclusion
Of the final door
From the ultimate threshold or boundary
All you kings and martyrs
All individuals in positions of power and those who sacrifice themselves,
All the little girls and boys
As well as young girls and boys,
Will thank you when you start us
Will express gratitude when you initiate
Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane
A safe journey toward becoming mentally stable and rational citizens
Hooray to be Citizen Sane in a world gone mad
Celebration for achieving mental stability amidst a chaotic world,
Please may we just switch all our brains on to good from bad?
Requesting a transition of thought processes from negativity to positivity,
All we want's the word and we want it now
A desire for clarity and truth immediately
No way do we want any pain or to feel too sad
A strong wish to avoid suffering or profound sorrow
If you want to join a mission
If you wish to be part of a purposeful endeavor or cause,
Ask the leader for permission
Seek permission from the leader or person in charge,
He can put you down or pick you up
They can either demean you or provide support,
Off the killing floor
From the environment of intense conflict or danger
All you kings and martyrs
All individuals in positions of power and those who sacrifice themselves,
All the good little girls and boys
As well as good-natured young girls and boys,
Will thank you when you start us
Will express gratitude when you initiate
Safely on the way to be Citizen Sane
A safe journey toward becoming mentally stable and rational citizens
