if you don't look at numbers - apologetix lyrics

[intro]

[verse 1]
we hear you’re readin’ ** that’s so great
you had a little hard time ** in exodus
leviticus kind of scared you so you turned around
it isn’t for the faint of heart

[chorus 1]
if you don’t look at numbers
you won’t learn to call on god for help
when you walk in the desert by yourself
if we both look at numbers
if we only trust in god
you’ll find usually you’ll feel better
when you press on

[verse 2]
i have a splendid time in his word most days
even though i try to not boast and gloat
who can stay excited readin’ names? i don’t know
so, yes, i have some days it’s hard

[chorus 2]
if you don’t look at numbers
you won’t learn where korah’s mob rеbels
dathan, on, and abiram’s group, as well
in the old book of numbеrs
is the only donkey who talked
it’s quite humorous if you’ve read it
but you just won’t
[rap & instrumental break feat. electric guitar]
thirty*six chapters, flirtin’ with disaster
israel strayed like sheep from a pasture
people complained and the crowd got hostile
fire burned the camp and quail filled their nostrils
then came a plague and moses’ sister
tried to break ranks but the lord dismissed her
she became leprous, had to stay separate
after a week she was back on the guest list
then there were the spies who didn’t wanna go to canaan
everybody whined a bit and so the lord detained ’em
moses struck a rock when he should have just spoken
venomous snakes came, people were croakin’
god said they should make a brazen snake and hold it high
everyone who looked upon it wasn’t gonna die
moabites and midianites seducin’ all the israelites
to fall into idolatry and wreck their foreign policy, but honestly

[bridge]
you tell us there’s a lot of lines
but you’ll go read the new york times
that book, it has some famous parts

[chorus 3]
in the old book of numbers
israel got a spot from god to dwell
ended up in the desert, too, as well
if we both look at numbers
if we only trust in god
you’ll find usually you’ll feel better
when you press on
[outro]
stick with that book of numbers
(stick with that book of numbers)
stick with that book of numbers
