12 Ladybugs

Zero one two three
Four five six
Seven eight nine
Ten eleven twelve
Ladybugs came
To the ladybugs’ picnic
 
Zero one two three
Four five six
Seven eight nine
Ten eleven twelve
And they all played games
At the ladybugs’ picnic
 
They had twelve sacks so they ran sack races
They fell on their backs and they fell on their faces
The ladybugs 12
At the ladybugs’ picnic
 
They played jump rope but the rope it broke
So they just sat around telling knock-knock jokes
The ladybugs 12
At the ladybugs’ picnic
 
Zero one two three
Four five six
Seven eight nine
Ten eleven twelve
And they chatted away
At the ladybugs’ picnic
 
They talked about the high price of furniture and rugs
And fire insurance for ladybugs
The ladybugs 12
At the ladybugs’ picnic

    Our kids joyously yell out ‘zed’ when they sing the ABCs.

    I do have ask what is ‘zero’ being corrected from? I’m not familiar with the song in question.

    Ladybugs song is from Sesame Street. They start counting at one.
