About This Track

'Numbers' by Weezer is an alternative track from the album 'OK Human', released in 2021. The lyrics frame a bruising preoccupation with comparison and self-worth, as if figures and labels are always trying to drag you down. There is a taunting sense that measuring up to others is a trap, and that the numbers decide who belongs, echoing the repeated idea that “numbers are out to get you”.

"Numbers" is a track by Weezer, from the album OK Human, released 29th January 2021. The track is 3:21 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 9 articles about Weezer.

Lyrics

Numbers

There's always a number that'll make you feel bad 'bout yourself
You try to measure up, try to measure up to somebody else
Numbers are out to get you, numbers are out to get you
Numbers, ooh
They say that you're too short to join the team
And your IQ's too low for poetry
Numbers are out to get you, numbers are out to get you
Numbers, ooh
I hear the sadness in your life, girl
So call on me and tell me what you need
Just call on me and tell me what you need
Look at him, look at her, they've got a million likes
You better figure out how to multiply, divide
Numbers are out to get you, they'll kill you if they get through
Numbers, ooh
I hear the sadness in your life, girl
So call on me and tell me what you need
Just call on me and tell me what you need
I'm a one, I'm a zero
In the end, does it matter?
All that we even really know
Is every nail needs a hammer
But the numbers I compute (I compute)
When we look and the two becomes one
(Zero point one two three five one two)
I hear the sadness in your life, girl
I hear the sadness in your life, girl
