789 Lyrics

1, 2, 3 and 4 more makes 7
And 6 is afraid of 7...cause 7 ate 9!

Nine was minding his business
Talking to 10 about Gordy Howe's clothes
Why 7 ate 9, nobody knows.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10
What about 9?
Seven ate nine!

Oh the cat'll have to live with eight lives now
Ronaldo will have to make do
Ever since seven ate 9 it seems
I've got an extra finger and an extra toe too

Seven ate nine!

Once upon a time in our solar system
We couldn't make do without 9
But Pluto's not a planet now, so eight'll do fine.

Oh the cat'll have to live with 8 lives now
And the Chinese will be out of luck
And the vampires will have to think of some other method
Cause without their K-9's, how will they suck?

Seven ate nine!
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10
What about nine?

Seven ate nine!

Love the Gordie Howe reference!

They are quite clever, even with their kid's album. It rocks!

This song cracks me up, especially the wisecrack about Pluto.

One thing I don't get - why would the Chinese be out of luck if 9 was missing? 8 is a lucky number in Chinese culture, and it would still be there.

My only thought is that it's the Barenaked Ladies, and maybe they threw a curveball in there to see if you were paying attention.
