The Iced-Bun Song

Five iced-buns in the baker’s shop.
One of them is sold to feed a hungry cop.

Four iced-buns on the baker’s shelf.
One of them goes off to a party with an elf.

Three iced-buns getting lonelier each day.
One of them gets a part in a Shakespeare play.

Two iced-buns in the baker’s window.
One of them gets promoted and becomes a flamingo.

One iced-bun left all on its own
Talks to the other iced-buns on the phone.
