adventures of portland build
this is my lighthouse on the kiliman
ride
comedy was very tired he'd been up all
night on watch
beyond i've heard you going to bed early
but this is ridiculous it's 8 o'clock in
the morning
now as lighthouse is around we have to
sleep in curved bunk beds to fit the
shape of the walls
they're called banana bunks
and chromity just couldn't get to sleep
in his
oh it's no good said grummity
it's too light for me to go to sleep
building roster making too much noise
so he decided to go downstairs
oh no
i can't get to sleep complain comedy
there's too much light and you're making
too much noise
[Music]
but then he noticed that ross was
drinking lemonade
oh a lemonade he said sleepily hey okay
oh i'm thirsty is that glass for me
ah thanks
this might help me get to sleep you
shouldn't drink so fast said ross that's
right you'll get the hiccups i said and
sure enough
they did
well he tried holding his breath but it
was no use he couldn't stop hiccupping
you know what you need i said
you need a good fright
that'll get rid of them
shouted ross
it's no good
i knew you're going to
do it
poorly comedy
here i said sit down quietly and do some
of my knitting it's time to check the
light well i wish i hadn't given him my
knitting
every time he echoed it he dropped a
stitch
this jumper's gonna be so full of holes
hiccup comedy
we'll have to
use it as a fishing net
meanwhile
ross decided to have one more go at
giving comedy a frog
well i arrived back in time to see them
both on the floor in a tangle of wool
and hiccups
oh dear crumbly i said you look
exhausted you really should be in bed
but
i can't
i told you it's too light and noisy and
now i've got the hiccups as well
and i just can't get to
sleep
if you really want to get rid of those
hiccups and get to sleep
run downstairs and fetch two bottles of
lemonade and you wouldn't working at
but
the rate down at the
bottom of the light house now courtney
do you want to stop those hiccups or not
i said
well of course he did so he dragged
himself off hiccuping all the way
[Music]
what an effort for two bottles of
lemonade
[Music]
it worked then i says
no more hiccups
exactly climbing all those stairs has
got rid of them but why are the bottles
of lemonade and my wooly hat a*s
grummity if the noise and light is still
bothering you take the corks from the
bottles put one in each here and pull
your hat down over your eyes
like this
that won't work said ross
and he looks so silly but comedy
couldn't hear him
he was fast asleep come on this won't
