Five little jelly beans, I wish I had more!
I will eat the red one
Now there are four.
Four little jelly beans as tasty as can be!
I will eat the blue one
Now there are three.
Three little jelly beans, in such a wonderful colour.
I will eat the pink one
Now there are two.
Two little jelly beans eating them is fun!
I will eat the purple one um, um!
Now there is one
One little jelly bean, left in the ball
I will eat the green one
Now there is none!
