Rez Band - Numbers lyrics

rate me

I'm the one with the stare who talks to himself

I live in a chair ‹ I'm put on the shelf

I'm an ugly picture in a twisted frame

Do you recognize me? Do you know my 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 landed in jail

Number ten six eleven 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

Left to find dinner in a garbage can

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 nubers where we fall

Subtract my soul, divide us all
