Number Five With A Bullet Text

---

Laura:
I was feeling bad for you
'Cause I left you with a broken heart
But now you've really p**sed me off
and you know that that's not smart!

Did you think you were gonna get off scott-free?
Don't you know there's no getting over me? Mm.

You think this break up won't affect you
If you just refuse to let it?
Well I've come to claim my spot and I'm not leaving 'til I get it!

I will be
Number 5 with a bullet
You'll never get rid of me.
Sleep and you peace of mind
They're a memory!
Number 5 with a bullet
Climbing up the chart
Number 5 with a bullet
To your heart

Ex Girlfriends:
To your heart

Laura and Exes:
To your heart!

Ex Girlfriends:
You met and it was wonderful
No drama and no pain
She was smart and sexy
Sweet and hot

Laura:
And not insane.

You were the handsome DJ
I worked for Legal Aid.
We really clicked together

Ex Girlfriends:
Oh yeah you really had it made!

Laura:
But you always had one foot out the door,
Didn't you?
Just in case there might be something more.

Ex Girlfriends:
And now she's gone
Moved up, moved on
Left you in the dust
Left you filled with longing
And a thick and aching lust.

Laura:
Well you can block the truth out for a while
If you will yourself
But when you think of me with another guy

Laura and Exes:
Don't you want to kill yourself?!

I will be
Number 5 with a bullet!
Like a tape that's on rewind
Playing in your head
Messin' with your mind!
Number 5 with a bullet!
A sharp and throbbing pain
Lodged there like a bullet in your brain.

Laura:
You're on a cycle that never ceases
You get dumped and you fall to pieces
You were hoping for a reversal
But that pain was just a dress rehearsal!

Laura and Exes:
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Number 5 with a bullet
See your memory's a blur

Laura:
And that list don't mean nothing without me!

Ex Girlfriends:
Without her

Laura and Exes:
Yeah!
Number 5 with a bullet
Climbing up the chart
Number 5 with a bullet
To your heart
(Number 5 with a bullet)
To your heart
(Number 5 with a bullet)
To your heart
(Number 5 with a bullet)
To your heart!

(Dance break)

Number 5 with a bullet

Ian:
Can you feel my hungry kiss?

Laura:
I've made love a thousand times
But nothing can touch this!

Ian:
Touch this!

Laura and Exes:
Woah!
Number 5 with a bullet!

Laura:
Oh...oh...oh...!

Ex Girlfriends:
And she's climbing up the chart!

Rob: (a la Scrooge)
Stop! Show me no more! Congratulations Laura! You made it.

Laura and Exes:
Number 5 with a bullet
And that bullet's heading straight to your heart!
Yeah!
