lyrics

One is the color of loneliness
Two's the sound of a divide
Three's another way to say two against one
Four will only even the fight
And don't get me started on five, and six and seven, eight, nine
If bad design was on a scale of one to nine, this world's a ten

But one is the sound that a buddha sees
And two is what it takes to unite
Three is what baby makes
And four is the friend you invite
And the more the merrier with five, and six and seven, eight, nine
Feeling fine—on a scale of one to nine
This world's a ten

Planets spin
Skies bring day, and then bring night
Worlds beneath, full of darkness then of light
Lives within, riding on the changing tides
But what's behind our eyes?

Wonder what thoughts I'll be seeing today
tombs or ever-renewing life?
But I'm free to choose whether I'm gonna latch on
or just let them bubble away
like clouds in the shapes of a five, or a six and seven, eight, nine
While my mind looks for ones and nines, the sky's a ten
Life's sublime
On a scale of one to nine, this day's a ten
