Looking quite fine;

One touched a magnet,

And then there were nine.

Nine floppy disks,

Going out of date;

One got corrupted,

And then there were eight.

Eight floppy disks,

In computer heaven;

One was left in the sun,

And then there were seven.

Seven floppy disks,

Storing funny pics;

Someone spilt his coffee,

And then there were six.

Six floppy disks,

That surely looked live;

One jammed in the slot,

And then there were five.

Five floppy disks,

Dropped behind the door;

One got stepped on,

And then there were four.

Four floppy disks,

Taken down to tea;

One got toasted,

And then there were three

Three floppy disks,

Taken to the zoo;

One fell in the pig-food,

And then there were two.

Two floppy disks,

Got sat upon;

One cracked in two,

And then there was one.

One floppy disk,

The very last one!

Was lost on the bus,

And then there were none!

Ten green bottles hanging on the wall

And if one green bottle should accidentally fall

There'd be nine green bottles hanging on the wall.
