Awesome 17th level thinking there Robert! Different gravy - how strange for it to be a lawyer who's the one not to make things more complicated than they need to be. |

OBJECTION - this is the correct version:
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...
12 Drummers Drumming
11 Pipers Piping
10 Lords-a-Leaping
9 Ladies Dancing
8 Maids-a-Milking
7 Swans-a-Swimming
6 Geese-a-Laying
5 Gold Rings
4 Colly Birds
3 French Hens[8]
2 Turtle Doves
And a Partridge in a Pear Tree.
Is it the version asked for in the Question? dunno - you stopped posting the questions. worst QM EVER |

I was going to give cumulative scores after the next round. Thought they'd be some objections to that one. No one's put forward a decent objection yet.
I considered objecting, but I'm doing so abjectly that it would seem futile. However: Objection to lack of scores on the basis that I need my humiliation to be complete. |

I am making an objection to the actual song.
'Eleven Lords a Leaping' quite clearly scans better than 'Ten Lords a Leaping'

A version considered by many to be the authoritative, traditional version of the chant in England appears in The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes, as follows:
The twelfth day of Christmas,
| My true love sent to me | Twelve lords a-leaping, | Eleven ladies dancing, | Ten pipers piping, | Nine drummers drumming, | Eight maids a-milking, | Seven swans a-swimming, | Six geese a-laying, | Five gold rings, | Four calling birds, | Three French hens, | Two turtle doves, and | A partridge in a pear tree.
