Numbers by James Fisher Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One voice in my head
Says to wake up outta my bed
Two brain cells, almost dead
Told me to go to my chair over there
Three zoom calls later, my brain don't feel greater
Than it was before (was before)
Four broken pencils have come and gone
Faster than I know, it's five o'clock
Can't my life ever just stop for once?
[Chorus]
Oh, the
Numbers keep tickin' me on (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers in my class, they harass (Sit down, close your eyes, meditate)
Numbers follow me around (In the math, in my mind, in thе park, in the crowd)
No break, no time to drown thе sound of (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers, the numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
[Verse 2]
Ridin' in the car, six minutes to go
Pass the front yard, seven feelings of woe
Because I know I'm trapped in a mosaic zone
Confined in time, captured in art
You won't leave the house, if you are smart
8, 9, 10 or so
Times I said, 'mosaic surface, let me go!'
[Chorus]
Oh, the
Numbers keep tickin' me on (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers in my class, they harass (Sit down, close your eyes, meditate)
Numbers follow me around (In the math, in my mind, in the park, in the crowd)
No break, no time to drown the sound of (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers, the numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
[Bridge]
Numbers here, numbers there
Numbers, numbers everywhere
In your homework, in your hair
Get away, elsewhere
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8
Count, count, count, count, count, count, count
The numbers, numbers, numbers
[Chorus]
Oh, the
Numbers keep tickin' me on (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers in my class, they harass (Sit down, close your eyes, meditate)
Numbers follow me around (In the math, in my mind, in the park, in the crowd)
No break, no time to drown the sound of (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers, the numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
[Outro]
Numbers follow me around
Numbers don't ever get down
1 2 3 4 (Let it go)
5 6 7 (I told you so)
One voice in my head
Says to wake up outta my bed
Two brain cells, almost dead
Told me to go to my chair over there
Three zoom calls later, my brain don't feel greater
Than it was before (was before)
Four broken pencils have come and gone
Faster than I know, it's five o'clock
Can't my life ever just stop for once?
[Chorus]
Oh, the
Numbers keep tickin' me on (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers in my class, they harass (Sit down, close your eyes, meditate)
Numbers follow me around (In the math, in my mind, in thе park, in the crowd)
No break, no time to drown thе sound of (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers, the numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
[Verse 2]
Ridin' in the car, six minutes to go
Pass the front yard, seven feelings of woe
Because I know I'm trapped in a mosaic zone
Confined in time, captured in art
You won't leave the house, if you are smart
8, 9, 10 or so
Times I said, 'mosaic surface, let me go!'
[Chorus]
Oh, the
Numbers keep tickin' me on (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers in my class, they harass (Sit down, close your eyes, meditate)
Numbers follow me around (In the math, in my mind, in the park, in the crowd)
No break, no time to drown the sound of (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers, the numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
[Bridge]
Numbers here, numbers there
Numbers, numbers everywhere
In your homework, in your hair
Get away, elsewhere
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8
Count, count, count, count, count, count, count
The numbers, numbers, numbers
[Chorus]
Oh, the
Numbers keep tickin' me on (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers in my class, they harass (Sit down, close your eyes, meditate)
Numbers follow me around (In the math, in my mind, in the park, in the crowd)
No break, no time to drown the sound of (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
Numbers, the numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)
[Outro]
Numbers follow me around
Numbers don't ever get down
1 2 3 4 (Let it go)
5 6 7 (I told you so)
