let me put him down so you can join the
other fellas I like to keep warm
although we're keeping it very warm here
and well I think one of them is chicky
Micky and another one is Henny Penny and
another one is cluck to be lucky and
another one is jerky Whoopie what do you
think of those names all right what do
you want to call all these guys tell you
a magical story very magical and you can
do it the story and the magic trick um
it's about two thieves and seven
chickens now I don't happen to have any
chickens if you've got chickens you can
use chickens but otherwise like me you
can use seven anything anything at all
seven pennies I'm using seven little
ba*ls of paper one two three four five
six seven once upon a time a farmer had
seven chickens one two three four five
six seven and there were two thieves who
decided to steal the seven chickens and
share them equally so one thief stole
the chicken then the second thief stole
the chicken then the first one took a
chicken and the second one took a
chicken and the first one took a chicken
and the second one took a chicken and
whoops what happened then was the farmer
came back so very quickly
one put back the chicken the other put
back a chicken the other put back the
chicken and then the farmer went away
well the first one took a chicken the
second one ups the farmer came back so
one put back at chicken the other put
back a chicken the other put back a
chicken and then the farmer caught them
gotcha with the good said the farmer now
you would have thought that since the
two thieves had shared the chickens
equally they would be caught with equal
goods but no the first one
two chickens while the second had none
he was empty-handed and so the farmer
had to let him go now we do like to know
how that trick is done the secret is
that when you pick up the thingy the
chicken when you pick it up you always
pick up with your right hand first then
your left then your right then your left
but when you put them down on the table
you always put them down with your left
hand first and then your right and then
your left and so there's always more in
the right hand than there is on the left
and if you do that drink
all about thieves and chickens you will
absolutely steal the show
[Music]
that's that's not the way to do it
I don't it delayed it off well darling

musician when you grow up

should do
okay I could do it okay they can do it
too well lamb okay lambs go yeah sure I
never said in my life well maybe it's
time you started let's try it
there was this lamb oh good okay story
starts once on a farm they lived a horse
did you do it and he worked very hard
but he got old and he couldn't work
anymore
boy he must have looked like a horse I
didn't realize I said horse what did you
say
yes silly today the farmer who owned the
horse was very mean and he said horse
you're old
get off my farm if you can't work I'm
not gonna spend any money feeding you
didn't that fun I know you could get
hungry from not eating well apparently
not so this horse left the farm and
wandered down the road feeling very sad
get me back for messages why I'm not
gonna sign all that couples from
him anymore oh well the horse came
across an old dog it was sitting by the
side of the road howling what is the
matter I can't forget that means hmm
sorry well the horse
Tsang and by golly he did have a good
voice by golly and then the horse said
to the dog oh by golly don't I have a
good voice he said no no the horse said
dog why don't we go to the town of
Bremen nearby and see if we can get jobs
as seers by golly there's a concept
there's a concept and so off they went
but just as cherry what darling don't
you find out that ripples from that mean
from there either
I won't but just as they were
approaching Bremen they saw a rooster
yes right did you do that awful thing
and and it was sitting on a fence
singing its head off ah it must have had
a strong voice yes our leek a yes and
they asked the rooster what are you
doing here all alone for dinner so I ran
away
well said the horse my friend here the
dog and I we all find singers - oh yeah
let's see if we can sing together and do
you know what by Gauri
alone and the book and the chicken both
found that they made sweet harmony the
pony
while the chicken rode with Li the pop
would sing opera neither your life the
bird could sing rock and roll through
the night and folks on farms from miles
could hear the one that only singing boy
could hear the one and only singing boy
[Music]
the one and only singing heart well this
is when I joined the musicians of Bremen
right well yes yes if you say so they
hadn't gone long before they met up with
a lamb that's me yes we all know it's
you
now this lamb I was crying by the side
of the road now that I'm old and my
master doesn't like my and so they
invited this little lamb to join the
musical group you don't have a place
they say perhaps are you happy hmm
now that you wanted the group well it
ain't the new kids on the block but you
gotta start someplace
true true well the animal musicians had
not gone far before it began to get dark
yeah and they all decided to stop for
the night they saw a house okay but when
they picked in the window they saw that
this was a den of robbers no yes thieves
so the animals came up with a plan
they climbed on each other's backs and
the rooster scared me
he flew right onto the head of the lamb
and then each of the animals sang his or
her own song but they sang them together
at the same time simultaneously rally
and they sang them as loud as they could
they made such an awful noise that the
windows splintered and crashed and the
robbers thought they were being attacked
and the robbers ran out of the house and
into the forest and the robbers were
never heard from again
yeah and the four musicians were so
happy in their little home that they
never left
no no no they lived in that little house
in the forest but every night they drove
to the city of Bremen where they did
their shows and
they even took ads on television and I
know what they did in their ads
