about
Recorded in first-takes, and improvised live in the studio. Zero’s jazzy beat poet theme. A little bit Zen, a little bit Dada.
lyrics
Lyrics:
Zero-1-2-3, Zero-1-2-3
You can’t find me
I can’t find “me”
Zero-1-2-3, Zero-1-2-3
There is no “me”
There is no “me”
Stripes, dots, ragged thoughts
Dots, stripes, it’s a life
Battles fought, battles lost
Words won, lines crossed
A life reflected, paused & played
Stop the world, I want to get paid
I came to you immersed in need
Now these needy thoughts are freed
Zero-1-2-3, Zero-1-2-3
This is not me
I am not “me”
We’re learning as we go along
When you’re right you can’t go wrong
A dotted line direct report
To someone new you’ve never met
Pull the rug out underfoot
Speak the words you’ll soon forget
You are not me, I am not me
In this lost moment, this day between days
In this lost moment, this hour between hours
I read between the lines
I write between the lies
Another version of me
Is standing by
Waiting to be
In its due time
Just let go – to make it so
Zero-1-2-3, I am not me
Zero-1-2-3, Pleased to be free

Zero-1-2-3, Zero-1-2-3
You can’t find me
I can’t find “me”
Zero-1-2-3, Zero-1-2-3
There is no “me”
There is no “me”
Stripes, dots, ragged thoughts
Dots, stripes, it’s a life
Battles fought, battles lost
Words won, lines crossed
A life reflected, paused & played
Stop the world, I want to get paid
I came to you immersed in need
Now these needy thoughts are freed
Zero-1-2-3, Zero-1-2-3
This is not me
I am not “me”
We’re learning as we go along
When you’re right you can’t go wrong
A dotted line direct report
To someone new you’ve never met
Pull the rug out underfoot
Speak the words you’ll soon forget
You are not me, I am not me
In this lost moment, this day between days
In this lost moment, this hour between hours
I read between the lines
I write between the lies
Another version of me

Just let go – to make it so
Zero-1-2-3, I am not me
Zero-1-2-3, Pleased to be free
