Psychostick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can only count to four
I can only count to four
I can only count to
Four
One, two, five, four
Me count so poor (gonna count, gonna count, gonna count now)
One, I can count to one
Two, I can count to two
Three, I can count to three
Four, I can't count no more
One, what comes after one
Two, what comes after two
Three, what comes after three
Four
I can only count to four
I can only count to four
I can only count to
Four
I can only count to four
I can only count to four
I can only count to
Four
Count
One, two, nine, ten
Lost count again (gonna count, gonna count, gonna count now)
One, I can count to one
Two, I can count to two
Three, I can count to three
Four, I can't count no more
One, what comes after one
Two, what comes after two

The numbers have all beaten you
You never made it through middle school
Your edu-ma-cation failed your mind
Now the numbers have left your brain behind
I can only count to four
I can only count to four
I can only count to four
I can only count to four
One, you can count to one
Two, you can count to two
Three, you can count to three
Four, you can't count no more
One, what comes after one
Two, what comes after two
Three, what comes after three
Four
We can only count to four
We can only count to four
We can only count to
Four
We can only count to four
We can only count to four
We can only count to four
Math and numbers
Lots of numbers
(dialogue)
The lyrics to Psychostick's "Numbers" are a humorous take on someone who can only count to four. The song opens with the repeating line, "I can only count to four," followed by a series of nonsensical number sequences, including "one, two, five, four" and "one, two, nine, ten." Ultimately, the song suggests that the inability to count accurately indicates a lack of education and intelligence.
The repetition of the phrase "I can only count to four" creates a sense of frustration and limitation. The singer is stuck in a cycle of repeating the same limited counting sequence, unable to grasp higher numbers. The addition of the dialogue at the end of the song, where multiple voices join in to sing the "we can only count to four" line, creates a sense of solidarity and shared experience.
Overall, the song is a playful and light-hearted take on the frustration of being unable to grasp basic mathematical concepts. Its absurdity and humor make it a memorable and enjoyable listen.
