Fainting By Numbers lyrics

Artist  : Skyclad 
Song : Fainting By Numbers
 
Number One - the only number I can really trust,
Dual faceted - these people that insidetalk 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 nin 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.
