skyclad - fainting by numbers lyrics
number one – the only number i can really trust,
dual faceted – these people that i talk to when i must.
in triplicate my body hangs – left drying in the sun,
four horses at the starting gate – their riders waiting on my gun.
misused just like the pentagram – distrusted as the pentagon,
six sided is this box i’ve made – you’ll dance on it when i am gone.
seven times i’ve wondered whether heaven’s truly waiting there,
i smoke another eight ball to convince myself i couldn’t care.
the bulb’s blown in the neon nine that once shone from my cloud,
down the street at number ten they’re talking long and loud.
life’s a game of two halves – i’m not on the team of winners,
each time i set the table – seems that judas comes to dinner.
thirteen black cats cross my path – ignoring all the others,
there is no bride waiting for me – i’m not one of seven brothers.
fate serves an ace (fifteen-love) – i’m set to take a bruising,
’cause at sixteen i graduated from the school of losing.
[chorus]
count me out,
why don’t you count me out?
said you can count me out,
go find another easy number.
first catch me in your internet – unload me down your modem,
then brand me with a barcode, ’cause the fax of life you know them.
count me out!
oh what fun at twenty one – you stole the key to my front door,
you don’t need me – you won’t feed me (i’m not even sixty-four).
fifty two – how it suits you to fool me with your magic tricks,
what’s this birthmark on my head? – bet it’s the number six, six, six.
[chorus]
count me out,
why don’t you count me out?
said you can count me out,
go find another easy number.
