What is the name of the new DC commercials song?

Question

I saw this commercial a couple days ago around 8/31/08 and it sounds like a young girl almost and she is singing about numbers (2 and 2 is 4) like she is multiplying the numbers or something... I just want to hear the rest of the song... It sounds funny! Thanks in advance for everyones help!

Answer 1

Not sure about the DC commercials reference for I haven't seen any myself, but the song is part of the tune "Inchworm" from the Danny Kaye musical "Hans Christian Anderson".

The math part goes:

"1 and 1 are 2.

2 and 2 are 4.

4 and 4 are 8.

8 and 8 are 16.

16 and 16 are 32."

and then as the teacher has the students repeating this lesson (the song's refrain), Kaye as Anderson is outside the school room and sings to/about the Inchworm.

Hope this helps.
