From the recording Not a Number
Lyrics
From one to ten
In childhood time goes very slowly
Suddenly, 33
One third of a hundred
Why do people like so much the hundred?
Not certain it's one hundred percent perfect
There is no beauty with no defect
Seek humanity in meaningless numbers, I’ve tried
Their lips are tight
The numbers don't lie
But in numbers is where the lie hides
248 years
It is Pluto’s orbit
There’re 17,666 deaths
No thoughts, no feelings
When over the scale the number exceeds
You are the 23,875,639th to know
A trillion equals million times million
No, it means 10 to the 18th power
But I don’t care
From polygons blooms a circle
It is zero in the end
Go from where it began
