Am Dm
1, 2, 3 and 4 more makes 7
E
And 6 is afraid of 7
Am
Cause 7 ate 9
A Dm
Nine was minding his business
E Am
Talking to 10 about Gordie Howe's clothes
E Am
Why 7 ate 9? Nobody knows.

Oh the cat'll have to live with eight lives now

Dm E
Ever since seven ate 9 it seems

Am Dm
Once upon a time in our solar system
E Am
We couldn't make do without 9
E Am
But Pluto's not a planet now, so eight'll do fine.
Dm E
Oh the cat'll have to do with 8 lives now
Dm E
And the Chinese will be out of luck
Dm E
Vampires will have to think of some other method
Dm E
Cause without their canines, how will they suck?
Am
Seven ate nine!
