Take Five

"Take Five" is a jazz piece written by Paul Desmond and performed by The Dave Brubeck Quartet on their 1959 album Time Out. Recorded at Columbia's 30th Street Studios in New York City on June 25, July 1, and August 18, 1959, this piece became one of the group's best-known records. It is famous for its distinctive catchy saxophone melody; imaginative, jolting drum solo; and use of the unusual quintuple (5/4) time, from which its name is derived. The song was first played to a live audience by The Dave Brubeck Quartet at the Village Gate nightclub in New York City in 1959. more »

Hey, 2000 what
(5.4.3) (5.3) take off take off
Take 5 baby
We wanna see you shake it baby
2000 what baby
We wanna see you shake it baby
So Shake it off
Chillin' in the club
Got my boys with me
And the party's all jumpin' in the VIP
D-J's playin' my favorite beat and I'm havin' a good time baby
Look across the room,what did I see?
A really fine girl who needs to leave with me.
She was burnin' up the place
She was shakin' and shakin'
She was so fine so fine

It took me 5 months
Just to get to know your name
5 weeks
To show you I ain't playin' games
5 days
For you to even let me call over to your house babe
5 hours
On the phone beggin' you
5 minutes
Now I'm here kissin' you
5 seconds
You got me in a shakin' mood
Now is the time

[Chorus]
Somebody better
Shake it off
Shake it off
Shake it off
Shake it off
I know you wanna
Shake it off
Shake it off
So Shake it off
Shake it off
Shake it off
Shake it off
Shake it off
Oh baby please
Shake it off
So Shake it off
Shake it off

Oh
Shake it off

Now that we're alone
Come show me how
I really wanna learn
How you get down
Don't make me wait
Girl I'm ready now
Let's get busy one time
Start shakin that body
From left to right
Didn't even get tired
She could do it all night
This girl put it on me
Just the way I like
I think I love her
I want her

It took me 5 months
Just to get to know your name
5 weeks
To show you I ain't playin' games
5 days
For you to even let me call over to your house babe
5 hours
On the phone beggin' you
5 minutes
Now I'm here kissin' you
5 seconds
You got me in a shakin' mood
Now is the time

[Chorus]

I've never been the type
To fall in love from sight
But seein' you is like
A riot in my life
Now you took control of me oh
The heart and soul of me eh
Now you got a hold of me
Now I can shake it down

5 4 3
Who wanna dance right now?
5 3 2
Put your hands up uh c'mon
Put your hands up what c'mon

1 2 3
Throw yo hands up high what uh
4 5 6
Wave from side to side
Shake it off
7 8 9 c'mon
Let me see you shake c'mon now
10 11 12
C'mon let's do it again
Shake it off

[Chorus]

Oh
Shake it off
