Five

One night in June I was visiting my girlfriend
When suddenly there came a little voice from behind
Phoebe announcing that she could do a backbend
My friend tried to shush her, I really didn't mind
Oh mommy mommy, I gotta tell you one other thing, she said
Her face upside-down and red
OK young lady, then you'd better get your butt back to bed
She said
I can count to five, I can count to five, I can count to five
I can count to five, I can count to five, I can count to five
What a clever little girl
Where in the world did you learn to count to five
I'm blown away by your new ability
Pointing out that you are one
And she and I make three
Kitty and the turtle make five, make five
You know Melissa, I really can't ignore
The way she counts to five when the music is in four
She's a darling thing, a gem of a child
But this obsession with five has gone on for awhile
She's got five dolls, five braids on her head
Five pairs of shoes at the foot of her bed
I can't imagine where this might end (215k Wav) , but honey
Maybe you should talk to her five best friends about it
Uh-oh, here she comes again
One two three four five, one two three four five
I can count to five I can count to five, I can count to five, I can count to five
What a pleasure, little girl
Hearing the confident way you count to five
You say the numbers with such authority
Pointing out that you are one
And she and I make three
Kitty and the TV make five, make five
I can count to five (13 X)
All the way to five
