Numbers (Live At Hammersmith Palais / Fan Recording)

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?

(Woo, woo!)

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

(Woo, woo!)

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

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

(Woo!)

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, throw them away

Numbers

Oh, numbers

Pick them up, throw them away, throw them away

Like numbers

Whoa, numbers

Then you wake up one day

And find that you're a number

'Til you wake up one day

And find that you're a number

'Til you wake up one day

And find that you're a number

'Til you wake up one day

And find that you're a number

All together now

Body one, body two, body three, body four

Body one, body two, body three, body four

Pass them on and pass them by

Pick them up and throw them away

Pass them on and pass them by

(Pick them up and throw them away)

Until you wake up one day

And find that you're a number, whoa-oh

(Body one, body two, body three, body four)

Until you wake up one day

And find that you're a number, yeah yeah

(Body one, body two, body three, body four)

Until you wake up one day

Until you wake up one day

(Pass them on and pass them by)

(Pick them up and throw them away)

Until you wake up one day

(Pass them on and pass them by)

And find that yourself a number

(Pick them up and throw them away)

(Body one, body two, body three, body four)

You're a number, oh yeah

(Body one, body two, body three, body four)

Oh, numbers

(Pass them on and pass them by)

(Pick them up and throw them away)

Thanks very much, that's our new fab hit
