Czerwony stoliczek. Times Square, 2010.
A wyliczanka is a counting rhyme, from the word wy/liczyć / wy/liczać - to count, count out. Liczyć is to count. wy- as you might remember is the prefix associated with "out" (like in the word wyjście, exit).
As an exercise, try to figure out how this wyliczanka below will sound by reading it out loud before you listen to it. Try to determine its rhythm, so important to counting rhymes!

whoever's turn it is
