I had the dream again, the one where I just started to ascend And my vision grew much clearer Then all the people and the buildings and the ground began to blend And I saw a set of numbers I had the dream again, the one where I was forced to take a train From Chicago to Atlanta And when we reached top speed, I had to give the current ETA So I grabbed a calculator Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my cells are all dividing Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my race is multiplying I walked into a store and bumped into a pyramid of cans And they fell into a pattern And when the clerk came out, he pointed at the triangle he planned And I had to know the tangent Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my cells are all dividing Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my race is multiplying I still think we have at least a million years to go until we reach the end Soon we'll overthrow the sky and use it for ourselves and all we comprehend 3.1415926, a work of fiction Ever think the circle is a trick? Grab a pen, I'll add it to the list of comprehension 3.1415926 I still think the odds are good that you can make a bet on what will be the odds When the numbers shape our world and we control the shape, we'll frolic with the gods Someone grab Fermat another drink to stop his shouting Ask him what the other scholars think If your margins are the missing link, I'll buy you paper Someone grab Fermat another drink I still think we have at least a million years to go until we reach the end Soon we'll overthrow the sky and use it for ourselves and all we comprehend And so the story ends without the world collapsing on itself And my computer started flashing And when I checked the net, I found that I accumulated wealth So I almost started laughing Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my cells are all dividing Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my race is multiplying Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my cells are all dividing Ooh, I'm a number, you're a number, can't you see? And my race is multiplying
