Samuel, Muffin, what's all this fussing about?

Are you two having a tiff?

Look what Muffin did to my scooter.

Muffin say Muffin sorry.

It was my favourite thing in the whole world and she broke it.

All right, you two. Let's settle down.

Let me talk to them, Love.

# It doesn't take a genius To see you're both upset

# And furthermore I'm sure that you're not over it quite yet

# But I speak from experience

# When I say you shouldn't fret

# Put it all behind you Just forgive and forget. #

-Forgive?

-Forget?

Yes, when someone makes a mistake and they apologise,

you should forgive them.

# So, Muffy broke your scooter, eh..? #

That's right, Dad, she did.

# Well, boy, I've got news for you She's just a little kid

# And little birds have accidents Mess up and make mistakes

# But there's no sense in flapping out whenever something breaks

# Forgive and forget It's easy as pie

# Forgive and forget Come on, give it a try

# Hmm

# Now, little Muffy, you're upset because Samuel yelled at you

# Yes

# But when you broke his scooter What did you think he'd do?

# Hm

# I know you've said you're sorry And admitted you were wrong

# So let's just stop this fight All right? And start to get along

-MUM AND DAD:

-# Forgive and forget

-# That's what big brothers do MUM AND DAD:

-# Forgive and forget

# And little sisters too

# What's the point of quibbling with your one and only sibling?

# Live and let live, just forgive

# And forget. #

Sam'l, Muffin really sorry.

Muffin, I know you didn't mean to break my scooter.

-I forgive you.

-Next time Muffin listen better,

and no touch Sam'l scooter.

Well, it's a little late for that, sis.

Don't be silly, you two,

if we work together we can fix this scooter in no time.

BOTH: Really?

Of course, your father's quite handy.

# Let's all lend a feather And get this back together

# Samuel, why don't you grab a wheel?

# We'll fix this fixer upper Before it's time for supper... #

-How about it, chick peas?

-SAMUEL AND MUFFIN:

-It's a deal!

# Muffin make small mistake But Muffin fix what Muffin break

# Thank you all for all your helping wings

-# I'll straighten out the handle bars

-Muffin adds a couple stars

# I'll tighten up these funny little things

# My scooter looks so new and shiny Even though you're much too tiny

# There's a way that you can ride it too

# Just above this gasket I'll attach a Muffin basket

# Take a look at what we now can do

-# Muffin hop inside

-Let's take a little ride

# Don't forget your helmet Muffin dear

# See you later, Dad and Mum Too bad the two of you can't come

# But now we've got to scooter out of here. #
