In philosophy I studied Pythagoras
And I'm not a mathematician

But the numbers keep attracting me
37s in positions

Also 137
Like physicist Wolfgang Pauli

And palindromic numbers
Rave On! Buddy Holly

87 for her
Our year of graduation

And I wonder 2037
The year of my cremation?

10 was basketball
8 is lucky in China

1 is the loneliest number
Like me solo in Carolina

I recently gave her my number
Me here all alone

I wonder if it will ring
My lonely telephone

Basketball again tonight
        Twilight Zone
