Twenty Froggies (traditional)

Twenty froggies went to school
Down beside a rushing pool
Twenty little coats of green
Twenty vests so nice and clean
"We must be on time," said they
"First we study then we play
That is how we keep the rules
When we froggies go to school"
That is how we keep the rules
When we froggies go to school

Master bullfrog, brave and stern
Called his classes in their turn
Taught them how to nobly strive,
Also how to leap and dive
Taught them how to dodge a blow
From the sticks that bad boys throw
Twenty froggies grew up fast
Bullfrogs they became at last
Now they sit on other logs
Teaching other little frogs

"We must be on time," said they
"First we study then we play
That is how we keep the rules
When we froggies go to school"
