Lyrics
Roosevelt Franklin: Whenever I go on vacation I want something different to do Instead of the usual counting I want to count something new!

So, I count one, two, three, four shrimp for lunch One umbrella in my punch One, two sailboats racing by One, two pelicans in the sky But best of all beneath the sea Lots of fishies wait for me! To count them! Ha, ha! Ha, ha!

One fish, two fish, three fish, four Five and six and here come more Seven, eight, nine, and now there's ten But now they're swimming off again! So, I count backwards! Ten fish, nine fish, eight fish, seven I'm in counting backward heaven Six now, five now, four, now three Gorgeous fishies in the sea Now we're down to two, now one Zero fish and that makes none!

But look, a waitress with my check I'll count the flowers around her neck! One pretty flower, two, ah, three Four and five and six you see Seven, eight, and nine and ten! And now I'll count them all again! One pretty flower, two, ah, three, Four and five and six you see Seven, eight, nine, and ten! And now I'll count them all again! One pretty flower, two, no, three! Four and five and six, you see!
