When you see, a gentleman bee,
|
¡¯Round a lady bee buzzin¡¯
|
Just count to ten, then, count again:
|
There¡¯s sure to be an even dozen!
|
|
Multiplication¡¦ that¡¯s the name of the game!
|
And each generation¡¦ it¡¯s played the same!
|
|
Now, there was two butterflies, castin¡¯ their eyes,
|
Both in the same direction¡¦
|
You¡¯d never guess. that one little ¡°yes,¡±
|
Could start a butterfly collection!
|
|
Multiplication¡¦ that¡¯s the name of the game!
|
And each generation¡¦ they play the same!
|
|
Let me tell ya now: I say one and one is five,
|
You can call me a silly goat!
|
But, ya take two minks, add two winks,
|
Ah¡¦ ya got one mink coat!
|
|
When a girl gets coy, in front of a boy,
|
After three or four dances¡¦
|
Ah¡¦ you can just bet, she¡¯ll play hard to get,
|
To multiply her chances!
|
|
Multiplication¡¦ that¡¯s the name of the game!
|
And each generation¡¦ you know they play the same!
|
|
Hear me talkin¡¯ to ya: Mother Nature is a clever girl,
|
She reli-es on habit!
|
Ya take two hares, with no cares:
|
Pretty soon you got a room full of rabbits!
|
|
Two parakeets, in-between tweets,
|
Sometimes get too quiet¡¦
|
Uh-oh! But have no fear, ¡®cause soon you¡¯ll hear,
|
A parakeet's riot?just try it!
|
|
Multiplication¡¦ that¡¯s the name of the game!
|
And every generation¡¦ you know they play the same!
|
|
Yes¡¦ it's multiplication: that¡¯s the name of the game!
|
And each generation¡¦ they play the same!
