Lyrics: Headful Of Numbers

I got six percent on an eight year deal
Four figure advance and three square meals
I'm doing ninety miles an hour in the 60 K zone
My second wife's left me
In a one point seven five million dollar home

It's the third street on the left on fifth avenue
Twenty floors up with a first rate view
And I know my hearts been broken at least eleven times before
This ten year old Scotch I'm drinking
Is all I'm living for

I gotta headful of number goin' round and round
Headful of numbers messing up my mind
Headful of numbers won't let me sleep
Headful of numbers wasting my time

On the twenty second hour of the twenty seventh day
There'll be two guys in the lobby come to take me away
I got ninety thousand shares in forty companies
But still my girlfriend keeps giving me the third degree

I gotta headful of number goin' round and round
Headful of numbers messing up my mind
Headful of numbers won't let me sleep
Headful of numbers wasting my time

You can count on love to shortchange you
But don't count on me to pull you through
You can keep a score add up the facts
You can call my bluff I may not call you back

She'll be twenty one in five days in six hundred dollars shoes
And I'm her thirteenth boyfriend with the thirty year old blues
It's four o'clock on Friday and I've had a three hour lunch
There's one thing she taught me
Eight Valium can really pack a punch

I gotta headful of number goin' round and round
Headful of numbers messing up my mind
Headful of numbers won't let me sleep
Headful of numbers wasting my time

I gotta headful of number goin' round and round
Headful of numbers messing up my mind
Headful of numbers won't let me sleep
Headful of numbers wasting my time

Headful of numbers
