number five


by bofa xesjum



they called him number five
he was either dead or alive
he had a dog named number six
who could not be taught tricks

a woman named number seven
had a smile which would be heaven
but not by the decree of fate
she preferred number eight

number eight was a superstar
and rode in fame’s golden car
and all the women on main street
threw themselves at his feet

number nine was eight’s main man
and most devoted fan
he chased away number ten
and then chased him away again

what about number four
did they know the score?
and poor number three
only wanted to set the world free

don’t ask about number two
he did what he had to do
but beware of number one
and all that he has already done
