Figure Eight Lyrics & Tabs by Blossom Dearie
Figure Eight
guitar chords lyrics
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,
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 ...
