lyrics

Give me a one or five or seven or keep it all
Just don't keep me guessing
I can't count up to five
Give me a two or six or eight
Give me an apple or give me a grape
What if I promise to be nice?

It takes yellow and blue to collide to make green
If you see for yourself then you'll know what I mean

Lend me your apple or give me your pear
Its half of a dozen or else its three pairs
It's the time I lent you mine

It takes yellow and blue to collide to make green
If you see for yourself then you'll know what I mean
That a walrus has two teeth that are ivory tusks
And the King of the Jungle is the elephant

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
That I promise you'll be singing long after I am gone
That is why I am sharing it with you

And I'll tell you a secret that you need to know
That the secret to life is to just take it slow
And remember the walrus have two ivory tusks
and the King of the Jungle is the elephant

Will you give me and A or a B or a C
If its anything less will you think more of me
It takes yellow and blue to collide to make green
If you see for yourself then you'll know what I mean
and the walrus has two teeth that are ivory tusks
and the King of the Jungle is the elephant
