Five Green and Speckled Frogs

A couple of nights ago, DS1 wanted to sing some songs after we had turned the light off at bedtime. I sang one to him, but then he asked for another one that I didn't know. So I asked him to sing it for us, to teach us. And he did! It was Five Green and Speckled Frogs, and it has 5 verses, counting down from 5 to 1. DS1 repeated a little bit because sometimes he didn't remember which number verse he had just finished, so I think he actually sang about 7 verses. We were so impressed that he remembered such complex verses. Here are the lyrics:

Five green and speckled frogs sat on a speckled log, eating some most delicious bugs (yum yum), one jumped into the pool, where it was nice and cool, then there were four green and speckled frogs (ribbit ribbit).

Repeat, counting down to "no" (for zero).
