[Spoken] This is a song about an inchworm He's called an inchworm because he's exactly one inch long He's very good at arithmetic And you can use him the measure the marigolds Now, you be the inchworm and sing his song about arithmetic It goes like this: Two and two are four Four and four are eight Eight and eight are sixteen Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two You try it [Singing] Two and two are four Four and four are eight Eight and eight are sixteen Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two (That's right) Inchworm, inchworm Measuring the marigolds You and your arithmetic You'll probably go far Inchworm, inchworm Measuring the marigolds Seems to me, you'd stop and see How beautiful they are Two and two are four Four and four are eight Eight and eight are sixteen Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two Everybody sing now! Two and two are four Four and four are eight Eight and eight are sixteen Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two Inchworm, inchworm Measuring the marigolds You and your arithmetic You'll probably go far Inchworm, inchworm Measuring the marigolds Seems to me, you'd stop and see How beautiful they are Two and two are four Four and four are eight Seems to me, you'd stop and see (eight and eight are sixteen) How beautiful they are (sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two) Seems to me, you'd stop and see How beautiful you are
