              Chorus:
              Prime factorization
              Is the product of primes, with exponents to save time
              Prime factorization
              It’s a “factor” of life, that whole numbers can be written like this
              
              Verse:
              From the beginning, you have a number to start…
              You take it and you break it, up in a product of parts
              If it’s already prime, just leave it to save time
              If it’s composite, primes come out of the closet 
              
              (Chorus)
              
              Bridge:
              Prime factorization…. Of (6,8,12)…(repeat for each number)
              (…do as many times as needed until you call out a prime like 13)….
              If it’s already prime, just leave it and save time
              If it’s composite, pull ‘em out of the closet 
              
              (Chorus)
              
              Last Chorus:
              Prime factorization 
              Is the product of primes, with exponents to save time
              Prime factorization
              Is the product of primes, with exponents to save time
              Prime factorization
              It’s a “factor” of life, that whole numbers can be written like this
              It’s a “factor” of life, that whole numbers can be written like this
            It’s a “factor” of life, that whole numbers can be written like this
