Picking Out A Number

Dan McLay

I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
I’m taking out my notebook
Borrowing a pen

Oh I'm drawing out conclusions
Drawing a straight line
I'm filled with such confusion
But I’m feeling just fine

I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
Oh it can't be too much worse than when I
Tried to pretend

But I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my day
No it can't be too much worse than that
Masochistic way

And I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my month
I'm planning out to sleep 'til I
Hit ’bout 41

Oh yes I’m picking out a number
Between one and fifteen
The world is dark and frightening
Every man alive is mean

So I'm planning out my lifetime
Planning out my year
I’m trying to account for that
All-consuming fear

So I'm picking out a number
Between one and twenty-five
Planning what will happen when I'm
No longer alive

Yes I'm planning past my lifetime
Planning what it means
To be a tiny speck of that
Little blue and green

Yes I’m planning out my lifetime
Planning out my day
It can't be too much worse than that
Masochistic way

And I'm picking out a number
Between one and ten
Taking out a notebook
Borrowing a pen

I'm drawing out conclusions
Drawing a straight line
I'm filled with such confusion
But I'm feeling just fine

Feeling just fine
Feeling just fine
