Count In Fives

(album: Strange House - 2007)

Count
Yeah, I count in fives.
I do it everytime.
And if another number confronts me
I will cut you in half.

Irrespective of the subject I will make it apply,
No matter what the object I will count in fives,
Tell me the location I will stand outside...

Oh yeah,
If you give me too many,
I will multiply.
Force too many into my hand
And I will not comprehend.

Irrespective of the subject I will make it apply,
No matter what the object I will count in fives,
Tell me the location I will stand outside...

Oh yeah,
Another number confronts me
And I force it to divide.
The first time with someone holding my hand.
The second, me holding it out.

Irrespective of the subject I will make it apply,
No matter what the object I will count in fives,
Tell me the location I will stand outside...

Oh yeah,
If you try to deceive me
I feel it burn in my hand.
Now watch the numbers run to me
As I count them in fives
