5 Times Table Multiplication Song

So they opened up their mouths
And these questions began to flow,
I only knew my fours
And these were fives, wouldn't-cha-know.

My mouth began to stutter,
My face began to sweat,
One looked at me and said, "Hey, boy!
Don't you know your fives yet?"

I knew that I was done for,
So I turned and walked away,
I decided to go and learn my fives,
Kept hearin' those voices say...

You better learn 'em,
You need to know 'em,
You better learn 'em,
You need to know.

You better learn 'em,
You need to know 'em,
You better learn 'em,
You need to know.

5 times 2 is easy, 'cause 10's a perfect score,
5 times 3 is 15, I think I heard that one before,
5 times 4 is 20, like twenty classrooms in my school,
5 times 5 is 25, hey these fives are kind of cool.

5 times 6 is 30, thirty kids on my school bus,
5 times 7 is 35, hey these fives aren't such a fuss.
5 times 8 is 40, forty birds on a telephone wire,
5 times 9 is 45, hey these fives are getting higher...

5 times 10 is 50, fifty feet that keep the beat,
5 times 11 is 55, one more we'll be complete;
5 times 12 is 60, sixty minutes on my clock,
Now that I know, I'm gonna show
Those kids that are on my block.

And that's the 5 times table
Except for 5 times 1.
5 times 1, the answer is 5
And we're back where we've begun.

Rap made it so easy
I had time to go out and play,
But every time I'd rap and rhyme
I kept hearin' their voices say...

You better learn 'em,
You need to know 'em,
You better learn 'em,
You need to know.

You better learn 'em,
You need to know 'em,
You better learn 'em,
You need to know.

I took my rap to school
And I learned it pretty fast,
Wouldn't-cha-know we had a test that day
And those kids were in my class.

So I tapped my little rhythm
To see what I would know,
The next thing to happen, my head started rappin'
And my answers started to flow - BREAK-IT-DOWN!

5 times 2 is 10,
5 times 3 is...15,
5 times 4 is 20,
5 times 5 is...25,
5 times 6 is 30,
5 times 7 is...35,
5 times 8 is 40,
5 times 9 is...45,
5 times 10 is 50,
5 times 11 is...55,
5 times 12 is 60,
5 times 1 is...just 5.

Then the test was over
And I let my rhythm fade,
You should've seen the look on their face
When I got the highest grade.

They stared while I was leavin',
Sort of sat and scratched their heads,
I looked those kids right in the eye
And this is what I said...

You better learn 'em,
You need to know 'em,
You better learn 'em,
You need to know.

You better learn 'em,
You need to know 'em,
You better learn 'em,
You need to know…..
