Lyrics Paul Weller

Paul Weller

Call Me No.5

I dreamt I was falling

I never woke up

I dreamt of a warning

A yellow buttercup

I dreamt of an old flame

Smoking cigarettes she was

Dancing in a night club

With some other men

I was holding up a drugstore

My gun was soaking wet

From the barrel I was trapped in

That went tumbling over the edge

You can call me number 5

Please please my my

Call me number 5

Call me number 5

That's why I'm still alive

The barrel cracked up open

I was swimming for my breath

I knew I wouldn't make it

She watched me catch my death

So I switched on the TV

Saw me reading out the news

Another story of a plane crash

Another story of bad news

The TV cracked up open

My baby boy came out

I was looking at my new wife

I ain't writing home about

You can call me number 5

Please please my my

That's why I'am still alive

I boxed around a sliver ring

With blood stains on my face

I cut the dog with yellow teeth

And drove his car away

You can call me number 5

Please please my my

Call me number 5

Call me number 5

That's why I'm still alive
