| My Hero, Zero
|
| You’re such a funny little Hero
|
| But until you came along, we counted on our fingers and toes!
|
| Now you’re here to stay, but nobody really knows
|
| How wonderful you are,
|
| Why, you could never reach a star
|
| Without you, Zero, my Hero, how wonderful you are
|
| How wonderful you are
|
| Ya place a Zero after one, and ya got yourself a ten
|
| (see how important that is!)
|
| When ya run out of digits, you can start all over again
|
| (see how convenient that is!)
|
| That’s why with only ten digits, including Zero
|
| You can count as high as you could ever go Forever, to what’s infinity
|
| No one ever gets there, but you could try!
|
| With ten billion Zero’s
|
| From the Cavemen to the Heroes
|
| Who invented you,
|
| They counted on their fingers and toes
|
| (And maybe some sticks and stones, rocks and bones, and neighbor’s
|
| toes!)
|
| But nobody really knows
|
| How wonderful you are,
|
| Why you could never reach a star
|
| Without you, Zero, my Hero, how wonderful you are
|
| How wonderful you are
|
| If ya place a Zero after any number, that number goes by ten
|
| (see how easy that is!)
|
| If ya place two Zero’s after any number, and that number goes by a hundred
|
| (see how simple that is!)
|
| With church, maybe you place six Zero’s after a number,
|
| And I guess you’re goin’flat on the floor!
|
| Etcetera, etcetera, add infinitum,
|
| Add astra, forever,
|
| And ever, with Zero, My Hero,
|
| How wonderful you are! |
