i thought of the money
and then i thought that i should pay with a plastic card
i wondered about that thought
and then i stopped, and then i thought about it hard
where does it come from?
are the numbers just floating out in sp-ce?
the millions around us –
do they stop, and do they think of what they do?
(chorus)
what is the price of tea in china?
what is the currency compared to the yen in j-pan?
i think of the millions
of dollars, and people, and pesos, and rupees…
i think of the countries
and all the land that is scattered around the world
and what are our chances
in a world where the numbers float around?
(instrumental)
numbers float around…
(repeat chorus)
and francs and lira and crowns and pounds
euros, makuta, and rubles and ducats, and yen
(repeat chorus)
and guilders and shillings and rands and wons
escudos, guarani, xu, baht, fen and yen
