Hap Palmer - Five Lyrics

One, two, three, four, five
Play your rhythm sticks
Jive in five four time
With staccato clicks
Feel the pulse and play
Here's a helpful clue
Five beats to each bar
Think of three plus two
La da da- la da- la da da
La da da- la da- la da da
La da da- la da- la da da
La da da, la da da da
La da da, la da da da

Search the radio
You won't hear this beat
It's unusual
A refreshing treat
'though at first the count
May seem somewhat strange
Soon you will agree
It's a welcome change
La da da- la da- la da da
La da da- la da- la da da
La da da- la da- la da da
La da da, la da da da
La da da, la da da da
