Just a Number
No one's all right and no ones all wrong
And nobody knows when their younger
I could take you today where the bodies are laid
Everyone there's just a number
They say it feels just like a punch
Don't know it's over till it's over
It might not hurt that much
Just a hard knock on the shoulder
He played football for the team
He was the highest scorer
Talked of university
The first in line to go there
Say you better take a knife
That's what everybody else does
Better use it in a fight
Can't mess around with us
There's an alley down the lane
You pass to get to town
That's where they lay in wait
It's where they laid his body down
No one's all right and no ones all wrong
And nobody knows when their younger
I could take you today where the bodies are laid
Everyone there's just a number
No ones all good and no ones all bad
Got to stand tall and be stronger
I could take you today where the bodies are laid
Everyone there's just a number
And nobody knows when their younger
I could take you today where the bodies are laid
Everyone there's just a number
They say it feels just like a punch
Don't know it's over till it's over
It might not hurt that much
Just a hard knock on the shoulder
He played football for the team
He was the highest scorer
Talked of university
The first in line to go there
Say you better take a knife
That's what everybody else does
Better use it in a fight
Can't mess around with us
There's an alley down the lane
You pass to get to town
That's where they lay in wait
It's where they laid his body down
No one's all right and no ones all wrong
And nobody knows when their younger
I could take you today where the bodies are laid
Everyone there's just a number
No ones all good and no ones all bad
Got to stand tall and be stronger
I could take you today where the bodies are laid
Everyone there's just a number
