Picking Out A Number by The J Arthur Keenes Band Lyrics
I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
I’m taking out my notebook
Borrowing a pen
Oh I'm drawing out conclusions
Drawing a straight line
I'm filled with such confusion
But I’m feeling just fine
I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
Oh it can't be too much worse than when I
Tried to pretend
But I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my day
No it can't be too much worse than that
Masochistic way
And I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my month
I'm planning out to sleep 'til I
Hit ’bout 41
Oh yes I’m picking out a number
Between one and fifteen
The world is dark and frightening
Every man alive is mean
So I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my year
I’m trying to account for that
All-consuming fear
So I'm picking out a number
Between one and twenty-five
Planning what will happen when I'm
No longer alive
Yes I'm planning past my lifetime
Planning what it means
To be a tiny speck of that
Little blue and green
Yes I’m planning out my lifetime
Planning out my day
It can't be too much worse than that
Masochistic way
And I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
Taking out a notebook
Borrowing a pen
I'm drawing out conclusions
Drawing a straight line
I'm filled with such confusion
But I'm feeling just fine
Feeling just fine
Feeling just fine
Between one and ten
I’m taking out my notebook
Borrowing a pen
Oh I'm drawing out conclusions
Drawing a straight line
I'm filled with such confusion
But I’m feeling just fine
I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
Oh it can't be too much worse than when I
Tried to pretend
But I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my day
No it can't be too much worse than that
Masochistic way
And I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my month
I'm planning out to sleep 'til I
Hit ’bout 41
Oh yes I’m picking out a number
Between one and fifteen
The world is dark and frightening
Every man alive is mean
So I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my year
I’m trying to account for that
All-consuming fear
So I'm picking out a number
Between one and twenty-five
Planning what will happen when I'm
No longer alive
Yes I'm planning past my lifetime
Planning what it means
To be a tiny speck of that
Little blue and green
Yes I’m planning out my lifetime
Planning out my day
It can't be too much worse than that
Masochistic way
And I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
Taking out a notebook
Borrowing a pen
I'm drawing out conclusions
Drawing a straight line
I'm filled with such confusion
But I'm feeling just fine
Feeling just fine
Feeling just fine
