Bobby Darin - Multiplication LYRICS

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 … they play 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 multiple 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's a clever girl

She relies on habit

Ya take two hares with no cares

Pretty soon you got a room full of rabbits.



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.
