# Every day you walk down the street Everybody that you meet

# Has an original point of view

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

What's that noise?

DW!

BOTH: What's that noise?

Oh, I bet I know what it is.

CH-BOOM-CH-CH-BOOM!

-SNORING

-No.

Rats! I was sure it was the dog's stomach.

WHINES

CH-BOOM-CH-CH-BOOM!

Mom, it's in the basement.

Ch-boom-ch-ch-boom!

-What are you guys doing?

-Ssh! It's our new music show.

I'm a video... Ch-boom-ch!

..and I'm almost over.

That was Buster Jam with Hey What's For Dinner.

-Our next video...

-Hold it. That wasn't real music, he was going...

Ch-ch-ph-ph-ch!

..with his mouth. That doesn't look like a TV and this camera's not on.

-Dad's old camera doesn't work.

-So, why are you doing this?

-Why shouldn't we?

-Because it's not real.

-What's so great about being real?

-You can like it when it's not real.

You close your eyes and pretend and you can see cool videos.

If this is a trick - I'm telling.

No trick. Here they come - our big music videos.

That's right.

# I can stay here for hours

# I like books with pictures of pretty flowers...

# Having fun isn't hard When you've got a library card

# Having fun!

# One day I went to the library

# I found this book, it was great

# It was so cool, I couldn't put it down

# Even when it got pretty late

# That night I had a scary dream

# I mixed my own secret potion

# Add dirt, sludge, eyes of flies and a tiny dab of suntan lotion

# I started shaking, my legs were quaking

# My stomach aching, my brain was breaking

# Started turning green, feeling mean, it was like in that story

# I was acting strange, deranged, it was allegory... #

Allegory - a story where the characters stand for abstract ideas.

For example, good and evil.

# ..Cos I was Jekyll, Jekyll Hyde, Jekyll Hyde, Hyde, Jekyll

# Jekyll, Jekyll Hyde, Jekyll Hyde, Hyde, Jekyll

# When I awoke, I was me again

# I hid the book out of sight

# It was so cool I couldn't keep away,

# I took it out again that night

# Then I dreamed we had this test in school

# I gotta say it was weird

# We had to give the answers in semaphore

# And for extra credit grow a beard

# I just couldn't take it

# In one swift motion, I grabbed my potion

# I said, "Mr Hyde has arrived", tossed my flags on the floor

# Told the teach, "This is all a big bore!"

# Ran down halls, wrote on walls, even stole second base

# Super bad, sure was glad I wasn't wearing my face

# Cos I was Jekyll, Jekyll Hyde, Jekyll Hyde, Hyde, Jekyll

# Jekyll, Jekyll Hyde, Jekyll Hyde, Hyde, Jekyll

# This was too much, I had to stop

# I threw that potion away

# But it didn't matter if I drank the stuff

# I just kept changing anyway

# Now, I was Jekyll, Jekyll Hyde, Jekyll Hyde, Hyde, Jekyll

# Jekyll, Jekyll Hyde, Jekyll Hyde, Hyde, Jekyll... #

Just when it seemed there was no way out,

I saw the book was overdue.

-The book lady said...

-Are you returning?

I thought and I said...

No!

Renewed! Ha-ha-ha!

# My Dad's a chef You think that's great

# Try to guess what's on your plate

# He mixes things and then he bakes

# Why can't he stick to chocolate cakes?

# I want some ice cream Chocolate would be good

# Ice cream that tastes Just like it should

# Not broccoli, turkey or a lima bean

# It's got to taste like ice cream

# You have to try my latest treat

# A jellied fish inside a beet... # ALL: YUCK!

# ..Why should we eat the same old meals

# Wait till you taste my garlic eels

# There are so many things to make A custard soup or liver cake

# Pie with prunes and squash or leftovers goulash?

# Nothing brown and nothing soupy

# Nothing slippery and nothing gloopy

# Nothing mashed, nothing steamed

# And nothing with eyes that smells or wiggles when you touch it

# And nothing creamed! # This smells like fish!

I can't stand fish, I can't believe this cookie smells like fish!
