Analysis of Number One
I want to bring you cheers today.
You are the bright sun.
I want to serve you fruit parfait. You are number one.
I want to bring you loves today.
You are the home run.
I want to serve you eggs soufflT. You are number one.
I want to bring you crowns today.
You are the prize won.
I want to serve you goose pGtT. You are number one.
I want to bring you peace today.
You are the big gun.
I want to serve you steaks fillet. You are number one.
I want to bring you games today.
You are the best fun.
I want to serve you crepes flambT. You are number one.
I want to bring you laughs today.
You are the silk spun.
I want to serve you meals buffet. You are number one.
