Numbers are funny, I always loved them
They are mysterious, they can deceive you
They are holy and they are profane
They can be bad but they can be good

But they can also hide a bad fate
Maybe destiny is inside them too
Twenty seven keeps a secret
Why do the best ones leave soon?

'Cause 27 is their age
'Cause 27 is their fate
'Cause 27 is their age
'Cause 27 is their fate

Many twenty sevens are on the other side
They hang out with each other, I'm sure of that
I'd like to know what they talk about
Would love to hear the songs they make

One day I’ll be there with them too
Maybe share a beer and hang out too
Can’t forget to take my guitar
And learn the secret they keep so well

'Cause 27 is their age
'Cause 27 is their fate
'Cause 27 is their age
'Cause 27 is their fate

They don’t live more than 27
‘Cause 27 is their fate
I sing their songs everyday
