Hello there!
Maybe you could use a shell script in order to accomplish that task.
This is how I thought about it:

From 5 a.m to 7.am there are 2 hours, then 7200 seconds.
You want to run the
Code:
mysql

action every 5 seconds, then you need to run it 1440 times.

So, you could try something like the following:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

for i in {1..1440}; do
  mysql -ufoo --password='' -te "show full processlist" > /home/foo/log/show_processlist.log.`date +\%Y\%m\%d-\%H\%M` 2>&1
  sleep 5;
done

Say you save this script as filename
Code:
mysql_log.sh

Then, all you have to do now is to configure your crontab to run this script at exactly 5 a.m (one time only). Something like this:

Code:
0 5 * * * mysql_log.sh 2>&1

That action will last till 7 am.

Hope it helps and I hope someone points a better solution too.
