Ten little children
all in their prime
one got lost in a tunnel
and then there were nine
Nine little children
learning to skate
one fell down the mountain
and then there were eight
Eight little children
thinking of heaven
one was called far too early
and then there were seven
Seven little children
playing with sticks
one was poked in the eyeball
and then there were six
Six little children
into the pool they all dive
one did a belly-flop
and then there were five
Five little children
wanting for more
one asked once too often
and then there were four
Four little children
up in a tree
one lost his balance
and then there were three
Three little children
playing with glue
one stuck his hands to the road
and then there were two
Two little children
swimming under the sun
one swam into a rip
and then there was one
One little child
jumping for joy (he had won)
he fell off his pedestal
and then there were none.
