It's almost like John wrote this song for now. I've played it here before because we start at the races and I met John in Pimlico's infield. The name can be taken the wrong way, Safety in Numbers meaning a crowd but then we're also watching numbers vigorously. It seems we're also safe if everybody does the safe recommendations, numbers. John wrote all the songs but is not a musician or vocalist on this one album.
think Paint=masks
There's so many people Going to the races They paint on their faces And smile They watch the days fly by And don't even ask why Meanwhile The world that surrounds them Looks whithered and half dead And even your own head's been there You feel the depression And join the procession Nowhere As you march in the madness You crawl with the sadness That you might not leave the parade While the drummers are pounding You hear this astounding voice say: "Don't fear Come here Don't cry Stand by There's safety in numbers And numbers don't lie Don't lie" As the troops keep progressing You notice you've fallen behind And you're calling in fear But they're just too caught up In the way they've been brought up to here You halt for a minute And consider this strange voice Could this be your choice to lead? You hold the depression And watch the procession procede As the stranger gets nearer His image gets clearer He calls out and you hear him say "You've issued a May Day And May will be home for the day So Don't fear Come here Don't cry Stand by There's safety in numbers And numbers don't lie Don't lie" To yourself when yourself is Telling you that you're all That you have so just listen to You So exit the madness And enter the gladness And you will become quite aware You can end the depression And join the procession somewhere And "Don't fear Come here Don't cry Stand by There's safety in numbers And numbers don't lie Don't lie"
