The Lyrics

A weird ad appeared a few weeks before Pearl Harbor in The New Yorker advertising a game called The Deadly Double which featured dice with the the numbers 0, 5, 7, 12, xx, and 24. It featured a German styled eagle on the bottom. The FBI investigated the numbers as possibly meant for enemy agents. After Pearl Harbor, they all seemed to fit. 12/7 was the attack date, xx means twin strike by midget subs and aircraft or perhaps the two waves of aircraft, the USS Ward reported the attack on an enemy sub at 6:51, 6:53 and THEN a command call was made at 7:05. The 24 may be indicative of the 2400+ lives lost that day.
Strange but true,
Numerology,
Deadly Double was a prophecy?
Strange numbers as such,
No one really had a clue,
But 0, 5, 7, 12, 24, xx DID spell doom!!!

Strange but true,
The company,
In Chicago made the game for shelter playing
FBI grudge,
They investigated too,
But no true connection could ever be proved!!!
The Deadly Double was thought to represent Germany and Japan...
