There's one for the sorrow, and two for the joy, and three for the girls, and four for the boys.
There's five for the silver, and six for the gold, and seven for the secrets that are never to be told.
There's eight in the river and nine in my head, and ten of the worst kind sleeping in my bed.
There's a pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow,
A pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
There's one for the money, and two for the sin, and three for the time when authority kicks in.
There's four for the reason, and five for the tricks, but nothing's gonna save you from the six, six, six.
There's seven for the days, and seven for the nights, seven for the heavens, and the tunnels and the lights.
There's a pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow,
A pattern, there's a pattern, there's a pattern there to follow.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
(To follow) (To follow) (To follow)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh to follow
