My parents came home,
From their trip to the mall,
Would they ever believe,
What I’d tell them at all?
No way, and no how,
I already knew it,
When they didn’t believe me,
It gave me a true fit…
But I told them what happened,
Told them in case,
And they both got an angry,
Sad look on their face…

I told them, I’d told them,
What happened that night,
Number thief had been there,
He’d put up a fight,
Until I zapped him real hard,
With my new Thief Machine,
Turned thief to a leaf,
And left the house clean…
My parents both grimaced,
And put me to bed,
Told me that truth,
Was the best bet instead…
But when I looked at the clock,
What would they say then?
All numbers were there,
Except the 5 and the 10!
