Take Five lyrics

Scatting

Just stop and take a little time out with me.

Oh just take five, just take five.

Stop your busy day and take the time out to see

That I'm alive, I'm alive.

Oh, though I'm going out of my way

Just so I can pass by each day

Not a single word do we say

It's a pantomine, I'm out of time.

Still I know our eyes often meet,

I feel tingles down to my feet,

When you smile, that's much too discreet.

Sends me on my way.

Now wouldn't it be better not to be so polite

When you could offer a light?

Just start a little conversation now, it's alright

When you're taking five...(ah-ha)

Five!

Scatting

Won't ya take a little time out with me (my pretty)

Baby take five.

Stop your busy day and take the time to see, girl, that i'm

alive

Though I'm going out of my way

Just so I can pass by each day

Not a single word do we say

It's a pantomine, I'm out of time

Still I know our eyes often meet,

I feel tingles down to my feet,

When you smile, that's much too discreet.

Sends me on my way.

Wouldn't it be better not to be so polite, pretty mama

Don't you know that you could offer me a light?

Start a little conversation now, it's alright

When you're taking five...

Scatting

Won't ya take a little time out with me, girl

Come take five

Stop your busy day and take the time to see that I'm alive

Oh, though I'm going out of my way

So I can pass by each day

Not a single word do we say

It's a pantomine, I'm out of time

Still I know our eyes often meet,

I feel tingles down to my feet,

When you smile, that's much too discreet.

Sends me on my way.

Baby, just don't say hello and do not stare

You could offer your hand

Hugging and a-chugging it could be so grand

Oh take fiiive
