Don't know why
There's a gun up in the sky
Heavy weather
Since my government ain't together
Keeps raining bullets all the time

The lunatic I said you'd call The lunatic I said you'd call Remembering rings and Doctor Robert's laugh Got to be there any time at all
The lunatic will pick you up The lunatic will pick you up The paper hold he's folded everything he can Got to keep the loony's special cup
And if the dam breaks open for the National Health You shout and no one can succeed And if you must believe in everyone in need I'll see you pay the dark side of yourself
The lunatic is on the grass The lunatic is on the grass Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs Got to keep the loonies on the path The lunatic is in the hall The lunatics are in my hall The paper holds their folded faces to the floor And every day, the paperboy brings more
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon And if there is no room upon the hill And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
Ring, my friend I said you'd call Doctor Robert Day or night he'll be there any time at all Doctor Robert Doctor Robert You're a new and better man He helps you to understand He does everything he can Doctor Robert If you're down he'll pick you up Doctor Robert Take a drink from his special cup Doctor Robert Doctor Robert He's a man you must believe Helping anyone in need No one can succeed like Doctor Robert Well, well, well, you're feeling fine Well, well, well, he'll make you Doctor Robert My friend works for the National Health Doctor Robert Don't pay money just to see yourself Doctor Robert Doctor Robert
