Figure eight as double four,
|
Figure four as half of eight.
|
If you skate, you would be great
|
If you could make a figure 8.
|
That's a circle that turns 'round upon Itself.
|
|
1 x 8 is 2 x 4.
|
4 x 4 is 2 x 8.
|
If you Skate upon thin Ice,
|
You'd be wise If you thought twice
|
before you made another single move.
|
|
1 x 8 is 8,2 x 8 is l6,
|
3 x 8 is 24, 4 x 8 is 32,
|
and 5 X 8 is 40, you know.
|
|
6 x 8 is 48, 7 x 8 is 56,
|
8 x 8 Is 64, 9 x 8 is 72,
|
10 x 8 is 80, that's true.
|
|
11 x 8 is 88, and 12 x 8 is 96.
|
Now, here's a chance to get off
|
On your new math tricks.
|
'Cause 12 x 8 is the same as
|
10 x 8 Plus 2 X 8
|
80 plus 16 ... 96
|
|
1 x 8 is 8, 2 x 8 is 16
|
3 x 8 is 24, 4 x 8 is 32
|
and 5 x 8 is 40, you know.
|
|
Figure eight as double four,
|
Figure four as half of eight.
|
If you skate, you would be great,
|
If you could make a figure 8.
|
That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself.
|
|
Place it on its side and it's a symbol meaning Infinity ...
