[Music]

[Music]

going to

today

[Music]

where's that great music coming from

think someone left the radio

on hey wait for us wait for us hey

Sailors like my

drums hold the hattic those aren't

drums they're drums Mes in a beautiful

place called the Caribbean people learn

to make these drums steel

drums can I try a mani well sure thing

mie you all can oh I've got to go I got

to turn my pineapple up side down cakes

right side up over and out come on grab

a

drumstick who needs drumsticks I'll use

my

[Music]

claws we don't sound like an

chovy yeah we do we sound like the day

she dropped a Dre of

silverware

we can't reach what about us guys guys

guys they always forget about us just

cuz we're little yeah yeah well at least

we're big enough to check out the

tubs being too little or too big can

sometimes mean you're left out and even

a crusty old tanker like steamer feels

sad and lonely when it happens it's not

fair that big tankers like me aren't

allowed in the harbor I can't be with

the other boats and have fun like they

do I always get stuck out here

alone but Steamer does have one pal Ze

who comes by to see him every time he's

outside the harbor hey what's up big guy

why so glum I miss having friends hey

I'm your friend I know I mean lots of

friends well I'm sure the others would

like you if they got to know you but how

can they when I'm stranded out here in

the

Boondocks hey how about this since you

can't come into the harbor we'll all

come out I'll go talk to the others

now steamer's so excited he can hardly

wait to see who comes to

visit so where is

everybody well I uh I've got some bad

news no one wants to meet me right no

that's not it Captain star sent everyone

out to do more work never mind ZB just

forget it but the others wanted to come

they just couldn't it's no use if I

can't go into the harbor I'm

sunk we'll figure out something else but

no matter what ZB says he can't convince

steamer that there's any other way to

make

friends so after Z leaves even though he

knows he shouldn't Ste pulls up anchor

and starts sneaking towards the harbor

as the big tanker approaches a Gusty

wind begins to blow steamer wonders if

he should disobey the rules and go into

the harbor I'm going in I just have to

but before he gets very far steamer sees

Cappy the little Coast Guard

Cutter but I've got to get in no tankers

in the harbor steamer you know that I

said off limits coming through you're

too big you'll get

stuck oh the wind it's blowing me right

into

you steamer help I'm stuck go to the

harbor and get me some help but you said

it's off limits this is an emergency I

give you special permission but only go

far enough to shout for help hi Cappy

I'll do what you

say steamer didn't want to be left out

either

hello

Aurora the g*ng forgot us they're

playing with the drums but not with the

clams it hurts to feel left out cuz

you're little I bet we play those steel

drums great we do a bang up

job since he can't play the steel drums

now why not make your own music our own

music all hands it's salty song

[Music]

timeing

own make your own music make your own

music let the song within you

take make your

own your

[Music]

owning

[Music]

[Music]

sing sing the song that you were meant

to

sing wow we'll make our own music we can

do it we can do it just like steamer's

going to find someone to help

Cy the wind blows strong as the stranded

Coast Guard Cutter wonders if steamer

will find someone in time to save him

I'll do exactly as Cappy said just poke

my nose in and call for help help

SOS maen

huh that sounds like steamer steamer

where are

you steamer you're not supposed to be in

the harbor but Cappy's in trouble he

sent me it's okay

steamer it's true I was heading into

Port looking for you and the others but

I ran into Cappy instead and got in

trouble right well sort of I got Cappy

into trouble he stuck on a rock and need

you help him get off where is he the

other side of the Cove I'm off to the

rescue outside the harbor the wind blows

something fierce Ze fights to stay on

course

Cy where are you hi mate over here I'm

pinned against The Rock hang on Cappy

I'll save you hurry

CP you're jammed in pretty tight you'll

have to circle around and take it slow

the wind's too strong I can feel it it's

pushing me toward the Rocks too then

Scuttle back Scuttle back don't you

worry cabie I know what I'm doing I just

have to figure out how to scoot between

the rocks and you'll be out of here

before you can safe

Tu good here's the plan I'll swing by

and toss out a rope you catch it and and

sure enough Z safely toes Cappy into the

harbor thanks for the rescue Z if you

hadn't come along I'd be Driftwood don't

forget Steemer he sent me you're right I

was pretty tough on him but rules are

rules and he was breaking them only

because he wants to make friends cppy

that's why he was sneaking into the

harbor so that's the reason huh well I

can understand I know what it's like to

be

lonely hey stea Cappy's still in dry dog

for P but he wants you to know that he's

going to report me for breaking the

rules no that he thanks you very much

for helping with the rescue and he wants

to know if he can be your new first mate

after me of course you tell him he's

welcome aboard anytime he

wants these drums are great but our

music doesn't sound like what Aunt chy

played coming

from you guys are great why didn't you

play on the steel drums you didn't give

us a turn oh sorry guess we really hog

the drums yeah but I can fix

that go

Clans that's it that's just like Ani

played

[Music]

[Music]

what a day yeah great and boring I wish

we could think of something fun to

do

goodbye my so

long goodbye you just got here yeah

you're supposed to say hello not today

today is Backwards Day in Snug booat

Harbor Backwards Day right today we do

everything backwards try it it's fun but

H how do you do things backwards like

this instead of saying hello we say

goodbye right and if I say sit down we

stand up

now you got it well got to stop this is

me saying hello

hello let's see who can do the best

backward trick come on all right

Backwards Day oh boy I'm not sure I'm

going to like this

back

down

day come on let's fly

backwards backwards uhuh I'm not even so

good going frontwards I try something

new for once it's fun fun for you

maybe I wonder if the tugs are doing

everything backwards too it's an

unusually quiet day in Snug booat Harbor

with hardly any work for the tugboats to

do so they're all gathered at the star

Pier hoping jobs will come in soon this

is so boring I hate just sitting around

me too I feel like such a duck potato I

know let's tell jokes I'll go first why

does the tug cross the harbor easy to

get to the other side no to get to the

other

tide I'm next knock knock who's there

buoy buoy who don't cry it's only a

joke that was a very bad joke speaking

of bad jokes look at that when zip and

Zug repainted zarin's boat they spelled

his name backwards n a r r o z

Naros backwards now that's funny imagine

if everything were

backwards Well we'd have to call Top Hat

bottom hat and Lord stinker Prince

perfume

[Laughter]

and lot of things happened backwards too

like remember the time I went up River

to help unjam a log Jam and I thought if

I rammed the logs hard enough I could

bash right through them but instead they

all crashed down on

me well if things could go backwards the

logs would have piled up instead of

falling down and tenson would never have

had to come to rescue me

wow logs falling up that's a

treat lots of things are funny if you

imagine them going backwards well

imagine this all the boats and floats

going backwards in the Big Harbor

parade would be crazy just think of how

it would go welcome everyone to the

first annual Backwards Day Parade let's

go backwards and start at the finish and

have a miserable

[Music]

time leaving us first is Hercules

backing away with the most horrible

decorations then comes Sally seane

waving her flag goodby and look she's

Towing sunshine on the far side there's

little ditcher with 10 cents trailing

behind not to be outdone the zero Fleet

is also going byby a logging float pulls

away Zug and zip and a scaffolding barge

tugs Zach

back and now time to bid farewell to the

music barge which is playing the softest

sweetest music you've ever

heard and pulling the ever smiling zorin

and finally backing away into the

starting line we have wimpy Warrior baby

little stack and bottom hat and that's

it folks have a very Backwards

Day totally

goofy GE I think thinking backwards is

fun oh boy everyone's doing backwards

things today even look tough hey s come

on

they're having fun so why am I so

scared orora she'll help but I don't

want to do backwards stuff I'm just

learning to do frontward stuff doing new

things does feel scary but it can also

be lots of fun remember when you learned

to fly yeah I was scared but once I

tried it I liked

it attention all hands on deck it's

Salty's song

[Music]

[Music]

time

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

up kids say hello I bet you they'll be

grateful if you

do even it's new to

you I'll try it I'll try something new

I'll go backwards that's my

goal only is it okay if I wait till

after I watch the

tugs tell us another funny backwards

story you mean another story backwards

funny I've got one a picture this I was

Towing Lord stinker backwards one day

when we came upon the train bridge and

to our amazement it was breaking apart

and crumbling into the water right

before our very eyes fortunately the

trains weren't running that day so there

was plenty of time to report the damage

and repair the bridge but just imagine

if it all happened backwards just imag

the bridge that fell down would have

jumped up out of the water amazingly and

put itself back together and there never

would have been a problem in the first

[Music]

place it would have been much much

easier and I dare say much sillier if it

happened backwards attention Stars a

freer's coming in I've got work for you

all but we're having fun doing things

backwards

wouldn't it be fun if we could make

Captain go backwards make her go

backwards I heard that uhoh so it's

backwards you want to see me eh what's

she going to

do that's not

backwards no but this

is now happy backwards day and get back

to

work

[Music]

or what it's hard to decide everyone did

such great backward stuff hi g*ng I mean

new

award I do wow what's the prize it's
