Welcome to this splendid gathering Today you will witness a perfection of scientifi c charity With an ice pick staring up at us Let's cut out each and every irregularity And make this wretch an ordinary human being again
We will make you a free man Devoid of demons, devoid of debauchery You will be grateful for the internal bliss When we retrieve you from your mental abyss We will make you a Freeman If you submit to lobotomy A white cut, the red blood Every complaint removed when you feel a little sting
But despite our magnifi cent and pioneering discoveries You repent the accolade that was once given to us
Oh, the triviality of a few lost ones Compared to the imposing magnitude of the beloved incision
Psycho surgery silencing the self What bizarre megalomania made it come to this? Was it powerlessness, apprehension, unspoken eugenics? Or just a specifi c northern craving For medically enhanced normality?
Now you hound us with your abominable reproach And I foresee that this trajectory will be our nemesis Whirling through paranoiac tunnels As our achievements creep up on us
