What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number

I count the number a cardinal
Compound of one
999 is the number thought up
Simple arithmetic
Counting to 10
You count from number one
And reach zero again

What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number

New moon quotients
Infinite iove
Compound fractions
When your number is up
When you can't help it
You have to bet
You let your digits run riot
On a cool cigarette
What's the expectancy
Call it demand
Caught a new number for
As long as you can

What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number

Think of number
A fraction of ten
Bring the decimal point
And you're crowded again

I count the number a cardinal
Compound of one
999 is the number thought up
Simple arithmetic
Counting to 10
You count from number one
And go to zero again

Subtracted we stand
Divided we fall
No fault in multiplying
Back to it all
You're just arriving
Deciding your fate
Coz he's painting by numbers
On his old paper plate
Can't desert you
In your hour of despair
He will point over your shoulder
To make you aware
Still numbering yourself
What are you confused about
In your final demand

What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
What's your number
