Comfy Numb Demo version

[theend]

Guys,

Have you ever thought about performing the afore mentioned classic using the Demo lyrics? That would be a trip ;D

Hello, is there anybody in there?
Is anybody bleeding? Is there anyone at home?
Come on, I know you're hiding,
I could hear you screaming
When your neighbors called me on the phone
Listen, I am a physician
and I can handle your condition
Like a magician, if you show me where it hurts

There is no pain you are receding, A distant ships smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves,
your lips move but I cant hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I cant explain, you would not understand this is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb
I have become comfortably numb

Wake up now, pull yourself together
Get out and meet new people
I'm sure they'll understand
Come on, put away the shotgun,
Here have another blue one
Have your fingertips gone numb?

Goodbye, try and see the bright side
Listen to some punk groups
read the news, go out and see some shows


Think about it.

I've thought about it before!!! I'm not in WISH (obviously), but I've often thought about doing when I've performed it! I've always had a fondness for this, and hadn't thought about it in 5 years or so......until I read this post...

No musical project I've been in has ever done it....but we used to do it that way when we practiced for fun..............NOW I need to relocate my copy of the Comfy demo bc I would like to give it a listen again!! Thanks for the memories!!!

My favorite part:

I can hear you screaming when your neighbors call me on the phone (with the big scream behind)

OR

Come on...come on...come on.....put away the shot gun. Here, have another blue one. Have your fingertips gone numb?

Awesome man!

Think about it.

Indeed, it is a trip!

However, I think we would be shot right there on stage if we attempted to do it like that, even if we explained to the audience what we were doing (of which maybe 2 or 3 out of 1000 people might have ever heard it before)!

Mother, will they put me in the firing line, indeed!

I do agree that they are cool lyrics.
