The trivial solution

The trivial solution to it would be this:

99 to 1 by -1 foreach { n =>
  println(
    f"$n%d bottles of beer on the wall\n" +
      f"$n%d bottles of beer\n" +
      f"Take one down, pass it around\n" +
      f"${n - 1}%d bottles of beer on the wall\n")
}

Running in parallel

The above n parallel using a ParRange, fast but shuffles the output.

(99 to 1 by -1).par foreach { n =>
  println(
    f"$n%d bottles of beer on the wall\n" +
      f"$n%d bottles of beer\n" +
      f"Take one down, pass it around\n" +
      f"${n - 1}%d bottles of beer on the wall\n")
}

Regex solution

object NinetyNineBottlesOfBeer {
  val verse = """|99 bottles of beer on the wall
                 |99 bottles of beer
                 |Take one down, pass it around
                 |98 bottles of beer on the wall""".stripMargin
  
  val song = new scala.collection.mutable.Queue() ++= verse.lines += ""
  val Bottles = "(\\d+) bottles of beer.*".r
  
  def changeLine(line: String) = line match {
