NUMB

Today I'm Cuban - Irish.

Cubish, if you will.

And I present to you a song that's near and dear to my heart. It is a song from The Ambassadors of IRISHNESS: U2.

What can I say...it reminds me of a little Island, no, not Irie, another Island where I used to live.

Don’t move
Don’t talk out of time
Don’t think
Don’t worry
Everything’s just fine
Just fine

Don’t grab
Don’t clutch
Don’t hope for too much
Don’t breath
Don’t achieve
Or grieve without leave
Don’t check
Just balance on the fence
Don’t answer
Don’t ask
Don’t try and make sense
Don’t whisper
Don’t talk
Don’t run if you can walk
Don’t cheat
Compete
Don’t miss the one beat
Don’t travel by train
Don’t eat
Don’t spill
Don’t piss in the drain
Don’t make a will
Don’t fill out any forms
Don’t compensate
Don’t cower
Don’t crawl
Don’t come around late
Don’t hover at the gate
Don’t take it on board
Don’t fall on your sword
Just play another chord
If you feel you’re getting bored

I feel numb
(Gimme some more)
Don't be unhappy
Don't be unkind
(Gimme some more of that stuff)

It's not that hard
I feel numb
Just try and unwind
(Gimme some more
Too much is not enough)
I feel numb
(Gimme some more)
Don’t change your brand
Don’t listen to the band
Gimme what I don’t get
Don’t gape
Don’t ape
Don’t change your shape

I feel numb
(Gimme some more)
Have another grape
(Too much is not enough )
I feel numb
(Gimme some more
A piece of me
Gimme some more
Gimme some more of that stuff)
A piece of me
Yeah, yeah

I feel numb
Don’t plead
Don’t bridle
I feel numb
Don’t shackle
Don’t grind
Don’t curve
Don’t swerve
I feel numb
Don’t lie
Die
Serve

I feel numb
Don’t theorize
Realise
Polarise
Chance
Dance
Dismiss
Apologise

I feel numb
I feel numb
Don’t spy
Don’t lie
Don’t try
I feel numb

Imply
Detain

I feel numb
Don’t triumph
Don’t coax
