Ready or Not, Here I Come

Now, everybody try to find a good hiding place
This old tree is gonna be the base
I'm gonna close my eyes and hide my face
And count to 100 by fives
Ready, go

5, 10, 15, 20
25, 30, 35, 40
45, 50, 55, 60
65, 70, 75, 80
85, 90, 95
100, ready or not, here I come

Apple, peaches, pumpkin pie
Who's not ready? Holler I (I!)
Aw, alright, I'll count it again
But you better get hid, kid
Here we go

5, 10, 15, 20
25, 30, 35, 40
45, 50, 55, 60
65, 70, 75, 80
85, 90, 95, 100
105, 110, 115, 120
There

Bushel of wheat and a bushel of rye
Who's not here, holler I!
Twenty nickels makes a dollar
I didn't hear anybody holler
Five times twenty is one hundred
Everybody got to be hid
All eyes open, here I come
Woo!

Multiplying by five is a little like counting by fives
In fact, if you count it along on your fingers as you count it out loud by fives
Your fingers will tell you how many fives you've got
Okay, let's count together now
Count on your fingers, one finger for each, count out loud
Get set, ready, go

5, 10, 15, 20, stop! Twenty
You got four fingers, see?
That means four times five is twenty
Let's try another one
Get set, ready, go
5, 10, 15, 20
25, 30, 35, stop
35? Seven fingers? That's right. Seven times five is 35

Okay, let's try a longer one
Now when you run out of fingers at fifty
You see because ten times five is fifty
Then start over with the same fingers
And remember that you owe ten
Get set, ready, go

5, 10, 15, 20
25, 30, 35, 40
45, 50, 55, 60, stop!
Ten and two, right?
That's twelve fingers, and twelve times five is sixty
See how it works?
Now you may notice that if you multiply five by an even number
Your product will end in zero
And if you multiply five by an odd number
Your product will end in five!

Okay now, let's do one more game of counting by fives on our fingers
This is a long number, keep going
Get set, ready, go

5, 10, 15, 20
25, 30, 35, 40
45, 50, 55, 60
65, 70, 75, 80
85, stop!
85, 17 fingers
Look at that boy with 17 fingers stickin' up
How do you do that, kid
Anyway, five times 17 is 85
And see, that's three fives short of a hundred
If you had three more nickels, 15 cents, then add it to 15 to the 85
You'd get a hundred, right?

'Cause five times twenty is one hundred
Everybody got to be hidden
5, 10, 15, 20
25, 30, 35, 40
45, 50, 55, 60
65, 70, 75, 80
85, 90, 95, 100

Ready or not
Here I come
