Zilch - Hero Zero

My hero zero
Is such a funny little hero, but `till you came along
We counted on our fingers and toes
Now you`re here to stay
And nobody really knows, how wonderful you are
Why you could never reach a star
Without you zero, my hero, how wonderful you are.
How wonderful you are.

You put a zero and a one, and you got yourself a ten! (See how 
important that is)
And when you run out of digits, you can start all over again! 
(See how convenient that is)
That`s why with only ten digits, including zero, you can count 
as high as you could ever go
Forever, towards infinity
No one ever gets there, but you can try

Ten billion zeros
From the cavemen to the heros
Who invented you
They counted on their fingers and toes
(And maybe some sticks and stones, wiggly toes! haha)
And nobody really knows how wonderful you are
Why you could never reach a star
Without you zero, my hero, how wonderful you are
How wonderful you are

You place a zero at the end of a number, and you multiply that 
number by ten! (See how easy that is)
You put two zeros at the end of a number, and that number goes 
by a hundred! (See how simple that is)
You put six zeros... well then I guess you gone platinum
Etcetera etcetera, ad infinitum, -, forever, and ever, with zero, 
my hero how wonderful you are.

Haha yes, how wonderful you are.
