Song Lyrics:
Let's have some fun with the alphabet
and sing it in a brand-new way!
Instead of going from A to Z,
let's go from Z to A!

Z! Y!
Z, Y, X!
Y, X, W!
V! U!
V, U, T!
T, S, R, Q, P!
O! N!
M, L, K!
After K comes letter J!
I, H, G!
F, E, D!
Then C, then B, then A!

Sing the Backwards Alphabet Song with me!
I think you've all learned how.
Let's start with Z and end with A.
All together now!
Sing with me!
OK!
Z! Y!
Z, Y, X!
Y, X, W!

V! U!
V, U, T!
T, S, R, Q, P!
O! N!
M, L, K!
After K comes letter J!
I, H, G!
F, E, D!
Then C, then B, then A! Hooray!

Sing the Backwards Alphabet Song with me!
I think you've all learned how.
Let's start with Z and end with A.
All together now!

Sing the Backwards Alphabet Song with me!
I think you've all learned how.
Let's start with Z and end with A.
All together now!

Let's put it all together...
Z, Y, X, W, V, U, T.
S, R, Q, then P, O, N.
M, L, K, J, I, H, G.
Then comes F, then E, then D!

Three more to go!

Then C, then B, then A!
Sing the Backwards Alphabet Song with me!
I think we've all learned how.
Let's start with Z and end with A.
All together now! Hooray!

"Ten in the Bed" or "10 in the Bed" (See below for lyrics)

This classic children's song "Ten in the Bed" is a great way to help young children learn basic math and subtraction skills. Have your child track how many are in the bed as they sing along!

Lyrics:
There were ten in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were nine in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were eight in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were seven in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were six in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were five in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were four in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were three in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There were two in the bed
and the little one said,
"Roll over! Roll over!"
So they all rolled over and one fell out.

There was one in the bed
and the little one said,
"Goodnight!"

Corporate lobbies and board rooms are often graced with impressive art, but why? What's the rationale behind this expense, and what impact does it have on the rest of the art world? We look at the history of corporate collecting, starting with Chase Manhattan Bank in 1959, trace its meteoric rise since, and work through the reasoning behind it.
