I can't count all of the stars,
No matter how hard I try.
I count all night, 'til morning light,
And there's still more in the sky.
My brother gets all A's in math,
I get all A's too.
Maybe we could count all the stars,
If we were as smart as you.
Starting with Mars we counted stars,
For ten nights in a row.
First night we counted a million,
And there were many more stars to go.
Second night we counted a billion,
There were plenty, many more.
Third night we counted a trillion,
Until our fingers were sore.
Fourth night we counted a quadrillion,
There were many more of them.
Fifth night we counted a quintillion,
Our count on a whim.
Sixth night we counted a sextillion,
There were still more stars to count.
Seventh night we counted a septillion,
To find out the amount.
Eighth night we counted an octillion,
There were still more stars up there.
Ninth night we counted a nonillion,
More twinkled in the air.
Tenth night we counted a decillion,
But that was not them all.
I can't imagine what would become of us,
If they should suddenly fall.
