lyrics
Run. Run.
Run, Run, run-run-run-run
Running, running for a number
Fall and winter, spring and summer
Running here and running there and
Running to I don’t know where I’m
Running, running for a number
Nothing, nothing could be dumber
Running to some place above, I’m
Running past the ones I love, I’m
Running, running faster, faster
Numbers, numbers, master, master
Running why, don’t know what for, just
Running, running, more and more and
More... and More... and More... and More...
I run and run and huff and puff and
Never, never have enough. The
Numbers shout the Numbers scream and
Only stop inside my dreams:
I dream of Dancing like a Zero
Not some kind of hero
I don’t need to race
I know the score – I know my place.
I dream of Dancing like a Zero
Not some kind of hero
Numbers have me bound
But in my dreams I dance around
And when I dance the numbers fall
And I am found.
