Oooh - that's a fun squeeze. I missed the last lot, so I thought I'd join in here. Even on the 99 bottles site, opinion seems to be divided as to whether it's "Take one down, pass it around" or "Take one down *and* pass it around" - 3 bytes is important in this game....:) Anyway, here's a gramamatically correct one weighing in at 156 bytes with the 'and'.
$n=99;warn $b=&b,$w=" on the wall",", $b,\nTake one down and pass it a
+round,\n".&b(--$n)."$w.\n"while$n;sub b{$s=$n-1?'s':'';($n||'No')." b
+ottle$s of beer"}
Maybe there should be an ISO '99 bottles' standard to establish these important questions of 'and' or ',', 'No' or '0', plurals, CRs etc.. :)
