Mental Arithmetic Lyrics by Big Zero

Mainstream Propaganda

2016

Zero's in the rarest order
Stuck on the fences by the border
Stopping people, holding court
We're the ones who can't be bought
It's not enough to say you wanna' join in the groove
You gotta' prove it with your red shoes
It's not the same to say it's only part of the game
You've got to play it right
A man was born in Greater Greece
He believed the world should know
He was drowned beneath sea
'Cause squares ain't always rational
Don't divide this
Total abyss
Not negative, not positive
But I hold all the power
It's not enough to say you're just afraid of the void
It's all that's left when the world's destroyed
It's not the same to same to say it's all a case of decay
Be Zero's acolyte
A quantity is something or nothing
The numbers between are a lie
Vanishing before the beginning
Coming forth before we all die
Repeat after me, repeat after me, repeat after me
Z-E-R-O
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
Indian numerals
Barely understood
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
Indian numerals
Barely understood
It's not enough to feel the gravitational waves
When you've got rocket-powered roller-skates
It's not the same just sitting in your room everyday
'Cause Zero's infinite
Throw away your abacus and join us in arithmetic
Throw away your abacus and join us in arithmetic
Warclaw Sierpinski thought he'd left a bag at home
His wife said "No, all six are right there on the ground"
"That can't be right," he said "I've counted several times"
"I'll try again, there's zero, one, two, three, four five"
Throw away your abacus and join us in arithmetic
Throw away your abacus and join us in arithmetic
Throw away your abacus and join us in arithmetic
Throw away your abacus and join us in arithmetic
