Numbers Station
Dad came home smelling like barley and hops
On a first name basis with the local cops
You blast Pete's "In Your Eyes" in your ears
Holding your tongue and holding back your tears
You wonder if all those times that you wandered
Were more than opportunities squandered
Like a station repeating numbers in sequence
A pattern that you give undue credence
You see your heroes in the constellations
Offering warm regards and salutations
Their search for truth and understanding
Will have to wait for the next moon landing
You wonder if all those times that you wandered
Were more than opportunities squandered
Like a station repeating numbers in sequence
A pattern that you give undue credence
John was a believer, a man of faith
You all got lost following his wraith
You are a man of science, a man of reason
For all we know, you'll be a man for all seasons
You wonder if all those times that you wandered
Were more than opportunities squandered
Like a station repeating numbers in sequence
A pattern that you give undue credence
Lonely shepherd of the sea
The hero of your nightmare
Sitting by the ocean feeling the breeze
Sitting, twirling, spinning in your chair
