Fractions Song Lyrics

There were five pieces in one whole pie

The denominator of the whole pie was five

The numerator of my part was three, as three-fifths of the pie was for me

My mom made the apple pie out of Granny Smith's

She asked me if I liked it

I said, I plead the fifth

The numerator's the part

The denominator's the whole

And fractions are parts of a whole

Three birds were on a telephone pole

The denominator, three, was the group as a whole

The numerator, two, out of the thirds

Described the two-thirds that were blue birds

The numerator, two, described how many were blue

Then something fell on my head

It was bird poo

Bird poo

The numerator's the part

The denominator's the whole

And fractions are parts of a whole

I took four shots on the goal

Three went in, but one hit the pole

The denominator was all four shots

The numerator was the three goals I got

The other team's record had taken a toll

Got three-fourths on my shots, and won Olympic gold

The numerator's the part

The denominator's the whole

And fractions are parts of a whole

A number line is every fraction between zero and one

Right in the middle is one-half, one-fourth is half of that

A fraction's parts, you realize, have to be the same size

Hey, we're late for the game

Hate to leave you guys
