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
