Number in the Book

No glove, no love You've been hearing this so many times Don't you think it's time To be a little more responsible? Too many people die these days If you read the papers, check out the news The numbers are there Every number, represents a human being Who was a father, who was a mother A son or a daughter of this land You don't make the commitment but your body does Even if you're dead silent You are here today, tomorrow you are gone You don't wanna be another number in the book You are here today, tomorrow you are gone You don't wanna be another number in the book You are here today, tomorrow you are gone You don't wanna be another number in the book In the shadows of the night A lady from the street corner talks to a customer Money exchanges hands That's the formality and she says No glove, no love? You can pay me well, but it ain't worth my life Too many people die these days If you read the papers, check out the news The numbers are there Every number, represents a human being Who was a father, who was a mother A son or a daughter of this land It ain't worth my life, she said You are here today, tomorrow you are gone I don't wanna be another number in the book You are here today, tomorrow you are gone I don't wanna be another number in the book?
