Numbers
Who´s the person that you woke up next to today
If you were any older
Then you´d know you´d have to pay your way
Well maybe you do already
But you make out they pay you
Did you ask yourself where did love go wrong with you?

Numbers
Don´t tell me your name I don´t want to know
And don´t forget to take all reminders when you go
Good things have to end
And I was never any good at saying goodbye
Because when I say goodbye a silly thing happens
And I always cry

Numbers
You´re looking so thin these days are you doing speed?
(No, numbers)
Have you seen your face? Now you´re really going to seed
(Playing numbers)
Doing a nine to five in the day
And you never know their names
Because names make a person real
And there´s no real people in these games

Numbers
Pass them on and pass them by
Numbers
Never hold a good thing down for long
Numbers
Throw ´em away like Kleenex
Numbers
Pick them up and push them away
Numbers
Oh numbers

Until you wake up one day
And find that you´re a number

Body one, body two, body three, body four
Body one, body two, body three, body four
