No Reason to Get all Hot & Bothered...

If you do get all hot, take a cold shower...

No Reason to Get all Hot & Bothered…

 

No reason here to get all hot,

For this number thing is getting to be kinda shot,

It is used every time I get to a special number,

But no number is really special; really they are not…

 

So here I am at 700, sure I did not ever think,

I would even see half that mark, but don’t blink,

For as fast as I seem to write them,

I will be to 800 in an eye that is blinked,

So you will miss all that is in between,

Some might even be pretty good; I hope them you’ve seen…

 

For if not you have avoided the ones that could be fun,

Or the ones that I have made up to attract your shun,

Just to get your attention, as I have with the name here,

Got you in here to read that I am at 700, so buy me a beer…
