The Lyrics
Hey Mister Number Ones man, I wrote this song for you
So you could now vote all those ones you ever dream -
Hey Mister Number Ones man, here's a song to you
Now please give those ones so you can prop your self-esteem
Why do you bother vote
if you do not give a thought
I would like you now to tout
What all these ones just are about
You keep giving on each bout
Why don't you ever bother any commenting?
You like a snake strike from night
And then you fade away
It is - yes - quite a charade
why don't you dare to say
what do you have on your mind
Hey Mister Number Ones man, I wrote this song for you
So you could vote now all those ones you ever dream -
Hey Mister Number Ones man, here's a song to you
Now please give those ones so you can prop your self-esteem
So you could now vote all those ones you ever dream -
Hey Mister Number Ones man, here's a song to you
Now please give those ones so you can prop your self-esteem
Why do you bother vote
if you do not give a thought
I would like you now to tout
What all these ones just are about
You keep giving on each bout
Why don't you ever bother any commenting?
You like a snake strike from night
And then you fade away
It is - yes - quite a charade
why don't you dare to say
what do you have on your mind
Hey Mister Number Ones man, I wrote this song for you
So you could vote now all those ones you ever dream -
Hey Mister Number Ones man, here's a song to you
Now please give those ones so you can prop your self-esteem

"Why do you bother vote/if you do not give a thought"; well, having recently given you a few anonymous 555s I'll say it's because I haven't had much time to leave something other than a lame cop-out comment, which doesn't help anyone. 1s without a comment indicating fatal flaws in a parody are meaningless anyway.

I guess that makes me Mister Number Fives Man -- but I'll have to share the title.
I'm afraid I couldn't give this a 5 for pacing as a lot of the song's missing - but I know exactly what you mean :-)
