needed something to give him confidence
just the way you feel with your mister
barely here but but but do you know the
story Oh I happen to remember the story
because just the other day I was telling
this story to charley horse he's evolved
when Knights were bold they once was a
knight who was not he didn't have the
courage that he k*lled no dragons fought
no chance he was timid as can be when
he'd ride through the countryside
laughs that Boulder building and what
day foederati was sitting in his room
polishing his lands when Berlin the
magician came to his door so the
building needs to take these magic boots
and put them on and you'll have courage
and you'll have strength
[Music]
well early next day is a legend same for
the Rudy took around
he kills the first three dragons he met
on the countryside thank goodness he
said four Merlin's boots now I'm brave
as I can be and when I ride through the
countryside folk so cheerful dear oh

dragon
came below the castle at the king's
castle and carry off
[Music]

King said take your horse and catch that
dragon and bring me his head
so folder Rudi hopped on his horse he
was soon on the Dragons trail and in
half an hour
over the hill he spotted the Dragons
tail folder rody spurred on his horse
while bravely he raised his mace and in
less than a minute folder rhodium the
dragon were face-to-face Sepultura deep
Papa do not touch her
[Music]
taste of my mace
I'll show you the point of my boot it
even as he spoke about jeepers
the soldier Rajeev realized he'd come
without the magic boots yes in his rush
to save the Queen and get the dragons
magic is bad there was no time for
fright and he had challenged the dragon
to fight since winning his mace he hit
the dragon with all of you go so with so
that should settle your hash has down
give the dragon with a resounding crash
and was dead
so foldy roadie had saved the Queen he
proved himself quite a man my friends
was just a part of Merlin the magician's
plan those boots were never magic boots
Merlin said with a grin and fold a
roadie now you see

leash
who ever heard of a dragon on a leash no
this green iguana comes from South
America and Central America and I'll bet
you anything that once upon a time

Dragons story started I do do you know

Wendy Bernie Mallory Stevie Audrey
Robert Judy and hearth
I'm not surprised yeah tonight I'm not
surprised and would you know the nice
thing is that lamb chop did it all by
herself
I mean without mr. barely and it's
because of that story you told me about
Foley roadie the night I realized I need
and I can do anything I want to do
anytime I want to do it with all my
stuff fairly good as long as I have my
magic boots
it's picture time you spit your tongue
as though I've never met you I know
something you can't do I bet your bet
you betcha I'll teach you how to do what
I propose
I bet you that you can take a piece of
paper and making just one cut you can
cut this piece of paper into three equal
parts but gee a teacher can't do it I
bet you your mom can't do it but you can
do it sure you can do it I'm gonna show
you how that's why you can do it pay
attention you take the piece of paper
and you fold it in half I mean really in
half and then you sharpen your Center
fold then you fold it over again in the
same direction but you roll it this time
into three parts here and you sharpen
those folds open them up just a little
now this is the center fold remember the
first fold we made the folds that's next
to the center fold is the one that
you're going to cut and you're going to
cut and you're gonna cut very carefully
because we want three equal parts and
when you have cut through all of that
you open up the piece of paper now
that's your first piece of paper here is
the second piece of paper and it's
exactly the same size and here is the
third piece of paper and oh my goodness
they're exactly the same size and you
did it with one cut you cut a piece of
paper into three equal pieces what do
you think of that you know it all the
time Oh cut it out
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
okay okay
one-minute story about teddy bears and
mr. barely this one's for you I'm gonna
tell the story of lost and found the
little boy was lost you guessed it they
brought him to the police station but
the police station couldn't get the
child to tell his his name or what else
does the policeman want to know your
address that's right he's scared
whispered one of the men in blue at last
an officer arrived holding a teddy bear
and wearing a very worried look this
animal was lost he said we can't get
anything out of him either what's going
on today and the officer turned to the
boy can you help us
he asked the child took the bear if only
we knew the Bears name the policeman
sighed teddy the boy said really
you know him and what's his last name
bear the boy answered bear no kidding
well let's look it up and the officer
flipped open a phone book and he found T
bear what did the T stand for teddy
that's right T bear and he went to the
phone and he dialed a number well
apparently somebody picked up on the
other end did you lose your son the
officer said what does he look like
well he's small and he's fuzzy and the
officer acted as if the person on the
other end had hung up which probably is
what he did well that's not Teddy's home
the officer said what are we going to do
with this poor little fellow they won't
take him at the zoo they've got too many
bears they're already suddenly the boy
piped up I take him home with me
the officer looked pleased you will
honestly sure the kid said oh that's
very kind and where do you live the
officer asked to to to Morris Avenue
you all know your address don't you yeah
everybody why don't you say your address
all together and I'll listen what's your
address did you say your address too
ok so this little boy knew his address
and he said to to to Morris Avenue well
that's a good neighborhood for bears the
policeman said so they took the boy home
in a squad car and on the way he told
them that his name was Shawn Oakwood you
know there's not much else to tell
except this
he was really an undercover policeman
dressed as a teddy bear and he did his
job very well for months you could
always find him in Shawn's bed under the
covers yeah those are the bare facts
this is the song that does it and yes it
goes on and on my friend
some people started singing it not
knowing what it was and they'll continue
singing it as far as I just because it
is the song
