The Puncture Me Too!

# Come on and get on down to the city

# Where the trains all clatter through!

# Hey! Look at that driver driving

# I want to ride that train of blue Me too

# I'm looking way up high to the windows

# Take a peek for an inside view

# All these people busy working

# I want to see what they all do

# Come on, let's weave around the market

# Do you hear the hullabaloo?

# Everybody's busy selling

-# I wanna buy me something new...

-Me too

# Look through the arches under the station

# Down where the pigeons perch and coo

# Take a taxi ride to the river

# I wanna drive down the avenue

# Hey, look at those buses gleaming

# They look so clean and spanking new

# All lined up to drive around the city

-# Let me ting that bell

-Ding, ding!

# Going to ride on round to the school stop

# Where the children hurry through

# Sit down, the teacher's teaching

# I'd love to learn a thing or two...

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal

# Riversea Fingal, by the sea. #

Ten o'clock.

# Come on and get on down to the city

-# Where the ferryboat sails at noon

-Sails at noon

# Time to call on Granny Murray

# She'd love to say hello to you... #

Hello, Honey Pie. Come away in and see who's at home today.

# Granny Murray's house has two at home to play

# Granny Murray's house is home to... #

Who's here today? Well, we've got Brandon and we've got Adeel.

But don't just sit there! Come on, let's have some fun!

THEY GIGGLE

Good boy! Well done!

Yey!

You're the champion of Riversea Fingal!

Now, we've got Brandon and we've got Adeel,

but someone's missing from home today.

Not any more! Who's coming home to Granny Murray?

Oh, it's Lisa! Yes, with Tina.

Hello there!

-Tina!

-Hi.

And Lisa! Well done, big girl.

Oh, well done!

-Wow! It looks like one of Bobby's gymnastics displays in here!

-Yes!

But now Lisa's here, we'll do something new.

My darlings, why don't you all dress up for a walk in the park?

-And why don't we go for a short stroll over there?

-Good idea!

-It's nice to relax for a minute.

-Oh...

-Looks like you're in for a busy day, Granny Murray.

-You're right there.

Just the day to let them run about and let off steam!

-That's why I'm taking them to the park later.

-Good idea!

I think if they stay inside here,

you wouldn't have much of your flat left!

Oh, a skipping rope?!

I haven't had a go of a skipping rope in years!

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal! Riversea Fingal by the sea...

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal!

# Riversea Fingal, that's for me! # THEY LAUGH

Oh, I think we need more practice.

I don't know about the children being full of beans! We are!

-Will you look at Claude?

-GIGGLING

Claude's ready to face the grand outdoors!

All ready to swing in the park!

-I thought you used to have a swing too?

-I did, but it fell to pieces.

-Sometimes, you've make the best of what you have!

-Actually...

we might have a swing at the taxi garage! I'll look for it!

-You're a wee angel.

-Here you go.

-Oh, for me?!

-Thank you.

-TINA GIGGLES

Now I'm just going to bounce off to work!

-LAUGHTER

-Oh, come on, then!

-Bye!

ALL: Bye!

And remember... You just make the best of what you have.

-Thank you. See you later.

-Bye-bye. We'll think of you.

Me too!

Now, you keep an eye on Tina. Make sure she gets the right way to work.

# I'm on my way to work today

# Walking my shoes through the city views

# Stepping along I'm swinging my arms

# Singing my way through the city's charms

# Getting there is just so fine

# I so enjoy my walk in time

# I always know the way I go

# But can you show me the way I go? #

-Hey!

-OK, which way?

# Do I go that way? Or do I got this?

# Which way's a hit? And which way's a miss? #

-Left!

-OK. Left, to the garage!

# I'm on my way to work today

# Looking this way and that-a way!

Hello, builders!

Oh, hello, hat!

Hello, flower

-Hello, cat.

-Miaow!

Hello, green man.

Hello, flat!

# La-la-la!

# La-la! La-la!

# La-la-la! La-la! La-la! La-la!

# Do I go up now or do I go down?

# Which way is a smile now? Which way is a frown? #

-Down!

-Oh, down.

# You showed me the way to go

# Thank you You showed me the way I know. #

Hey!

Thanks for helping me get to work.

OK, right now, it's time to get changed for work.

All dressed and ready to go!

I wonder if the swing will fit in my taxi.

And where did I leave that swing?

Ah, there it is.

Oh... That's a nuisance.

The seat's broken. Well, maybe Raymond can fix it.

I remember when we were in a play called a midsummer night's dream.

I had to swing back and forth in my gorgeous fairy gown!

What angel wakes me from my flowery bed?

-SHE LAUGHS

-Oh...

I'm sure the children will have fun playing with this swing.

11 o'clock already?

I wonder what my bouncy girl's up to.

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal Riversea Fingal by the sea

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal Riversea Fingal, that's for me... #

Aw... Bye-bye, Lisa.

I'll see you soon, angel. Oh, good girl!

Bye-bye.

Oh, I wish I could be a fly on the wall to see Lisa at nursery.

CHILDREN LAUGH AND SHOUT

'What are you doing now, Mummy?'

-Hello, my darling!

-Raymond!

-Did you drop off Lisa OK?

-Oh, yes, yes.

-Good show.

Before I go to work, I thought sort out the costumes.

Before you do that, could you mend the seat on this swing?

-Sure.

-Granny Murray could do with this swing for her backyard.

This doesn't look too tricky.

-Do you remember A Midsummer Night's Dream?

-Who could forget your Bottom?

He was a great character. Oh, look!

There's the donkey ears that I wore when Bottom got turned into a donkey.

Hee-haw! With a hey and a ho and a hey-nonny-no,

and a something-something-something.

-Oh, gentle mortal, say it again.

-I would if I could remember the words.

Well, I'd best be off to work, so good luck mending the swing.

No problem, my fairy queen. Hee-haw!

OK, I'm ready to hit those city streets.

# City roads are waiting

# The traffic lights are changing

# Police cars are cruising

# The trucks keep a-trucking

# And the city roads are waiting for me

# To take a drive in my pretty pink taxi. #

Taxi!

# People wave me down

# In my pretty pink taxi

# Get into the back and just relax for the ride

# Pretty pink taxi

# She's going for a drive

# Look in the mirror, shift that gear

# Pull out to the busy lane My pretty pink taxi takes the strain

# The radio calls up a taxi fare Who am I going to meet?

BEEP BEEP

# Looking for a job in my pretty pink taxi

# Oh-h!

# Cruising the city in my pretty pink taxi, yeah!

# Drive, drive, drive in my pretty pink taxi

# Drive, drive, drive Hey, where do you want to go? #

Taxi!

# I need to take a drive in my pretty pink taxi

# People wave me down and go for the ride! #

Are you going to wear those ears all day?

Hey? Oh, I forgot I had them on. Hee-haw!

I could really do with a cuppa. I'm parched.

-Do you want one?

-Yes, please, love. I just brewed up, actually.

-Lovely.

-So how's your swing coming along?

-Nearly there.

-Oh, great. Granny Murray will be chuffed.

-Thanks, love.

There. As good as new.

Oh, fantastic.

Would it be all right if I had a go?

I don't see why not. Shall I push?

Oooh!

Hey, do you remember the other show we used this swing for?

Er, oh, yeah, The Importance Of Carrying A Handbag.

-You were Lady Haystacks.

-And you were Jock.

-Jock, you push this swing as to the manner born.

-You flatter me, I fear.

-Would you care to do the bumps?

-Indeed I would not!

I fear the cucumber sandwiches I had for tea would bring on some hiccups.

Do you remember the first time we took Lisa on a swing?

She didn't want to come off. We were pushing her for hours.

I hope she's having a good time with Granny Murray.

Would anyone like another wee sandwich?

-Are you full up?

-Nah.

-Nah? Juice? No.

Do you know what I fancy? I fancy a wee ice-cream.

Does anybody else? Come on, then. Let's get packed up.

You know, Lisa, your mum loves ice-cream, doesn't she?

-Will the swing fit in the taxi now that it's in pieces?

-It'll be fine.

-That's the lot. I'd better get off to work.

-Me too. See you later.

-Bye.

-Drive carefully.

-I will.

Oh, no. What was that?

HISS!

Oh, looks like the swing-seat's had it,

and what's that hissing noise?

Oh, look! The seat's burst my tyre.

Oh, this is awful!

The children won't have their swing to play on

and my taxi's out of action.

Oh, what am I going to do?

Where did all the time go?

At 10 o'clock, I dropped off Lisa at Granny Murray's.

All the children were charging around, letting off steam.

Then the children got ready for a picnic in the park.

Granny Murray's swing was broken.

She told me it was old and had fallen to pieces.

At 11 o'clock, I was at the garage getting ready for work.

I found the old swing that we used in our theatre shows.

Granny Murray wanted it for her yard but the seat was broken.

At 12 o'clock, Raymond called into the garage before going to work.

I asked him to mend the swing-seat.

At one o'clock, Raymond had mended the swing-seat so I had a go.

At two o'clock, I ran over the swing seat and broke it.

And the nail punctured my tyre.

Now, remember, you just make the best of what you have.

Make the best of what you have.

Aha!

I know what I have to do.

I'll put the spare tyre on my taxi

and I'll used the punctured tyre on my swing.

It's a race against time.

# I've got to do it I've got to do it

# I've got to beat the clock before the chime

# I've got to sort it I've got to sort it

# I've got to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee, I'll beat the bong

# I'll finish the job before you finish the song

# I've got to do it I've got to do it

# I've got to beat the clock before the chime

# I've got to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee I'll beat that bong

# I'll finish this job before you finish that song

# She knows what she should do and work it through

# Tick! Tock! Tick!

# Tock! Tick! Tock! Tick! Tock! Tick! Tock! Tick! #

I've changed the tyre on my taxi.

I'll take the swing round to Granny Murray's

and use the old tyre as a seat.

-Hello, Mickey John.

-Hi, Tina, can you take me in your taxi?

I need to pick up a new cricket bat.

Of course I can. What are you doing after that?

-Nothing much.

-Then I'll tell you what.

If you help me put up Granny Murray's swing,

-I won't charge you for the ride.

-It's a deal!

What a brilliant idea to use an old tyre as a seat.

Yes, it was Tina's idea.

Would you like a shot? ..Yes? Come on, then.

-Would you like a shot too, Mickey John?

-Oh, you bet!

Whee!

Your mum's so clever, Lisa.

Tina!

Come away in.

Look who's here, Lisa!

-Hello, Lisa.

-Hi.

Hello. Did you have a nice day with Granny Murray?

-You betcha!

-You say thanks to Granny Murray.

-Thank you, Granny Murray.

Oh, and thanks from me too - I remembered what you said.

You just make the best of what you have.

It saved the day.

Oh, is that so? Come on. You'll want to be home.

-Bye.

-Bye.

-Rrrggh!

-Rrrggh!

Let's talk about our time away.

I suppose you want me to tell you all about my time too.

# Well, there was waving, hello meeting, bye-bye posing

# Dozing, eating, fetching, painting, hiding

# Jumping up and turning round

# Dressing up and sitting down! #

What was really special about today?

Well, Claude was dressed ready for a picnic in the park.

That's where we were going today.

First I told Tina that the old swing had fallen to pieces.

We dropped off Lisa at nursery,

where she rushed around playing musical chairs.

After nursery school, we picked up Lisa and went to the park.

We had a great picnic.

Later, Tina came round with a surprise.

It was a new swing for the yard.

Instead of a normal seat, it had a tyre.

Tina had used an old tyre from the taxi.

It was brilliant to have a new swing in the garden

for the children to play on.

Whee!

Do you like going on the swings?

Me too!

Bye-bye, Honey Pie!

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal

# Riversea Fingal, by the sea

# I love to skip in Riversea Fingal

# Riversea Fingal, that's for me

# Come on and get on down to the city

# Where the ferryboat sails at noon

# Time to call on Granny Murray

# She'd love to say goodbye to you! #
