One fish, two fish...

Hi all... Sadly, this actually a serious post. Please don't judge me 
too harshly ;)

The other day at Uni, a friend and myself were having a discussion 
about the phrase that goes something like, 'one fish, two fish, red 
fish, blue fish.' Both of us knew the phrase from childhood, but we 
weren't sure if this was how the phrase went, if it did indeed end 
in 'red fish, blue fish', or even if it featured fish!

Our best guess was that it came from a Doctor Suess book. I've been 
trying to find my childhood copy of 'The Cat in the Hat', but it's 
been sucked into a black hole. I figure that if anyone can tell me 
what the phrase actually is, it's someone on OT-Chatter ;)
