Don't talk out-a 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 breathe
Don't achieve
Don't 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 cover
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
Don't change your brand
Don't listen to the band
Don't gape
Don't ape
Don't change your shape
Have another grape
Don't plead
Don't bridle
Don't shackle
Don't grind
Don't curve
Don't swerve
Don't lie, die, serve
Don't theorise, realise, polarise

Tolkningar:
Som jag ser det handlar låten om hur vi blivit avtrubbade i televisionens och kommunikationernas era. Tolkningen verkar rimlig om man ser till videon där The Edge sitter framför en TV (kameran) utan att bry sig om vad som händer runtomkring honom.
(Jonas – ansvarig för U2MoL)

U2MoL - Numb
Även om Numb uppenbarligen behandlar media så innehåller den mer än det man ser vid första anblicken. Detta är, enligt vad jag vet, den andra sången som The Edge skrivit helt på egen hand och den säger en hel del om hans roll i bandet, i världen och i sitt eget liv. Det finns både hänvisningar till musik, ”missa inte första taktslaget” (don’t miss the one beat), ”spela bara ett ackord till/om du känner att du börjar bli uttråkad” (just play another chord/if you feel you’re getting bored), och hänvisningar till känslan av att bli dominerad av andra (vem kan vara mer dominerande än Bono?). Låten tycks också haft en positiv inverkan på The Edges framtoning i media och roll i bandet. Innan Numb var det mestadels Bono som fick uppmärksamheten och stod för de flesta av uttalandena, men nu verkar det som att The Edge inte nöjer sig med det längre.
