Numbers
Lyricist:Mel Torme, Robert Wells
He's the one with the stare who talks to himself He sits in a chair, he's put on the shelf He's an ugly picture in a twisted frame Do you recognize him, do you know his name?
Got myself a room and a medicine man But what I'd give just to find a friend They pass me by when I'm on the street They look the other way, afraid of the freak
I got discharged in '71 From a Georgia town to communist gun Lost my woman and I landed in jail Number 10611 couldn't pay his bail
Painted by numbers, black is ten Brown says change my address again Painted by numbers keepin' the code Green and red says overload
Painted by numbers, statistical slot Halfway crazy and halfway not Painted by numbers in a gentle land Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Left to find dinner in a garbage can
Numbers, just numbers We're all numbers
I got discharged in '71 From a Georgia town to communist gun Lost my woman and I landed in jail Number 10611 couldn't pay his bail
Hit the street then hit the wall Pills can't catch you when you fall Accidents happen, do people too? Painted by numbers black and blue
Color by numbers, left to chance Love expressed in a Thorazine dance Painted by numbers where we fall Subtract my soul, divide us all
Numbers, just numbers We're all numbers
