All We Care About Is Five

To the tune of All I Care About is Love, from Chicago (the film 
version)

Dedicated to Nicole and Lilac (welcome back from Majorca!)

THE SCENE:  A well-stocked bookstore on the stroke of midnight, June 
21, 2003. A very long chorus line of ardent bookworms burst into song:


We want Harry
Give us Harry
H. A. double R. Y.
Lily's son
Rowling's book we will buy
And ooh what luck
It's 6-21...

We don't care tonight for Steven King
Or JR Tolkien's Ring
We've read that thing
All we care about is Five
That's what we're here for

We're not here to read Eugene O'Neill
Scott Turow, Danielle Steele
Oh, let's get real
All we care about is Five

Cheap romance
High finance
Will not win a second glance
If you suggest Vonnegut
Then we will ask "Are you some kind of nut?"

Books that tell you how to find yourself
Tonight must stay on the shelves
Tell us of elves
All we care about is Five

Poetry, classic texts
They're not what we're reading next
Mystery 
Biography
Don't need any, give me OoP

We don't care for readin' Bob Woodward
John Grisham, don't be absurd
No no not me
All we care about is 
Buying the book here
That we all desire
About the bird
That catches on fire
All we care about is Five
