Overall Meaning

The lyrics "Take another / Take another five" from Washington Grover Jr's song, "Take Five," could be interpreted in a few different ways. In the context of the song, it's likely that the singer is addressing the other members of the band - one more time through the musical phrase and then a five-beat rest. This break allows the listener to fully immerse themselves in the melody and rhythm.


However, the lyrics could also be interpreted as a more general plea for a brief respite. It's easy to get bogged down in the daily grind, and taking five minutes (or five beats) to step back, take a deep breath, and relax can make all the difference. Alternatively, the repetition of the lyric could be an exhortation to go even deeper into the music, to take another five beats and fully explore the melody and instrumentation.
