New Numbers — текст песни (John Hiatt)

Stand before it to the nines

Hurry up and get in line

Theyve got your ashes scattered

Before you even burn



Blasting off for baby town



Wearing cars like angel gowns

Even though Im wearin tatters

I just cant wait my turn



Chorus:

cause Ive got

New numbers dont understand

New numbers Im gettin out of hand

New numbers countin on me for

New numbers



Oh your body still behaves

Standard issue mindless slave

Somebody gave you your papers

You just stuck around



Now I wanna make a scene



Interrupt your magazine

Youre all so tucked in and tapered

Id only let you down



Chorus



I took the last train home and i

I cant remember the faces

Im adding up possibilities

Hows the view at twenty paces



Chorus

New numbers

New numbers
