Silly Day 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

-Me too

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, by the sea. #

Seven o'clock.

# Come on and get on down to the city

-# Where the ferryboat sails are blue

-Sails are blue

# Time to call on Granny Murray

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

Hello, honeypie!

Come away in and see who's at home today.

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

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

Who's here today?

Well, we've got Caitlin.

Don't just sit there. Come on, let's get busy.

Oh, thank you, Caitlin.

Wait till your mum sees that!

Would you like nice gloves?

Ta-da!

SHE LAUGHS

Well, we've got Caitlin.

Someone's missing from home today.

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

Och, it's Rudi.

Yes, with Jack.

Hello there.

-Rudi! Hello!

-Hi, Granny Murray.

And Jack!

A big cuddle. Come on, my darling.

That's the way.

Take your coat off.

Oh, we're having a bit of a silly day today, Rudi.

It's Harlequin Hospital's Silly Day

so we've been dressing up in silly clothes.

Now Jack's here we'll do something new.

Why don't you dress Claude up as a silly nurse with a red nose?

Go on.

-And we can do a silly walk over to our chairs.

-OK.

Granny Murray, I don't look forward to these silly days.

Don't be such a stick in the mud!

It's just, I've got so much work to do.

But it's all going to a good cause.

-All the money raised is going to the hospital.

-But when you're busy,

you want to get on and you've got no time for mucking about.

No matter what you're doing, there's always time for fun!

Even Claude's joining in. Come on, glum chops!

Oh, how's he looking then?

A lot sillier than Jack and Caitlin.

Daddy...

-Yes?

-Here you are.

-What's that?

It's a party tooter.

Wow! My very own party tooter.

TOOT!

A party tooter for a party pooper!

-Hey!

-Oh, I'm only having fun.

Well, thanks very much, Jack. Give us a cuddle.

-I'll see you later on.

-Yeah. Bye.

-See you, Caitlin.

Now, remember, there's always time for fun.

-Thanks, Granny Murray. See you later.

-Bye-bye. We'll be thinking of you.

Will you keep a wee eye on Rudi

and make sure he goes the right way to work?

# I'm on my way To work today

# Walking my shoes through the city views

# Stepping along and swinging my arms

# Singing my way through the city's charms

# Getting there is just so fine

# I so enjoy my walking time

# I always go the way I know

-# But can you tell me the way I go?

-Hey!

-#

OK - which way?

# Do I go left now? Do I go right?

# Which way is wrong now? Which way is right? #

-Right!

-OK - that way! To the market.

# I'm on my way To work today

# I'm going this way and that-a-way... #

Hello, cobbles!

Hello, train!

Hello, roadworks!

Hello, tram!

Hello, sweeper!

Hello, van!

# He's on his way to work today

# Looking this way and that-a-way Hey!

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

# Which way's a smile now and which way's a frown? #

-Up!

-What, this way?

# You told me the way to go

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

Now what? That's right. I need to get changed for work.

Lookin' swell and ready to sell.

A party tooter for a party pooper indeed!

TOOT!

HE LAUGHS

Oh, I could play with that all day.

But I've got a lot of work to do. Today's a busy day, not a silly day.

Wah-wah-wah-wah!

LAUGHTER

BOTH: Hi, Rudi!

Hi, Doc. Hi, Tina. What are you up to today?

We're collecting money on a hospital bed.

I look really silly, dressed up as Little Red Riding Hood.

But it's all in a good cause.

Come on, Rudi, your money or a great, big, wet sloppy kiss?

Well, in that case, it had better be my money.

There you go.

-And for you.

-Thank you, Rudi.

-That's OK.

-What have you got planned for Silly Day?

-Working.

BOTH: Working?!

Yeah, old Rudi's got a lot of work to do.

Oh, Rudi! That's a shame.

We thought you'd be leading the way with the silliness.

I know, but not today unfortunately.

Oh, well, if that's the case, Dr Juno, shall we?

Certainly, Miss Riding Hood.

-Onwards.

-Bye, Rudi!

Bye.

Oh... I hope Jack's not being quite as silly as those two today.

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal by the sea

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me. #

Oh, I'm going to be a little rabbit now. What are you doing?

A kangaroo!

Let's all be kangaroos.

That's the way. The sillier the better.

Jack, do you think your dad's having as much fun as us?

-Yes.

-Eh?

Are you having fun, Daddy?

Hi, Rudi!

Did you see Dr Juno and Tina going by?

They're collecting for the City Hospital. They're so silly!

Are they now?

Aw-w! What's wrong?

I've just got so much work to do.

-And people keep distracting you?

-Yes.

-Now it's my turn.

I need some empty boxes.

Chuck and I are making a cardboard car to do Flattery's Motor Car.

Oh, OK, but not now.

Party pooper!

I'm not a party pooper! Why do people keep on calling me that?

-Must be true. Party pooper!

-I'm not a party pooper.

I'm busy right now. If you come back later, I'll get you the boxes.

OK. See you later. Bye.

Bye.

Right, now I can get down to some hard work.

# Doobie-doobie-doo

# I make it look easy What I doobie-doobie-do

# And what I do Is sell to you and you and you

# All of the veggies for a stew

# But it's more than meets the eye

# What I do for you

# And as I buy and buy

# While you still sleep

# Those fruit and veg to eat

# And the flowers in the early hours

# So when wake-up comes

# It's there for you

# The market stalls are there to view

# Oh, the market, the market What a wonderful place

# The hubbub of people The smiles on each face

# Oh, the market, the market Come look around

# The hustle, the bustle The bubbles of sound

# The colours all chaotic Are spilling about

# The smells all exotic, yeah The market cries out

# Objects to excite you And draw you near

# The buying and the selling Cheap or dear

# The market, the market I just love to be there

# The market is a wonderful place! Doo-be-de-doo-ba

# Be-boo-be-doo-ba! #

Thank you!

Emergency! Please give generously to the Harlequin Hospital fund!

Oh, come on, guys, I've got work to do and I've already given.

-No, we want to target your generous customers.

-That's too far.

Silly Day for the Harlequin Hospital.

Give whatever you can. Thank you!

Stop hassling the customers, guys.

All in a good cause, remember, all in a good cause.

Thank you.

-That's great.

-What a nice lady.

Yeah, and that was a customer I just lost.

Oh, bye-bye, chompy chop.

Oh!

Oh, Jack, I hope you're having more fun than I am today.

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me. #

Wow! Seesaw marathon in aid of Silly Day!

It's for the Harlequin Hospital.

Look at those funny people going up and down.

Oh, that is silly, isn't it?

I wonder if your dad's being just as silly today.

-I think so!

-I think so too.

'Are you silly, Daddy?'

Hey, Rudi. Have you got those boxes for us?

Oh, no! I forgot.

Rudi!

Give me a hand.

OK.

THEY LAUGH

-Faster!

-Oh!

Stop, stop, stop!

The whole world's gone too silly today and I haven't got the time!

I've been working hard all day and everyone is acting daft.

Now boxes are getting thrown about and...oh! Where did the time go?

At seven o'clock I dropped Jack off at Granny Murray's.

It's Harlequin Hospital's Silly Day today so Granny Murray and I

did silly walks while the children dressed Claude up as a silly nurse.

Jack gave me a party tooter to take to work.

"A party tooter for a party pooper", Granny Murray said though.

At eight o'clock, Doc Juno arrived, pushing Tina on a hospital trolley.

They were collecting for the hospital and both were being very silly.

At ten o'clock, Louie came back to ask if I had any spare boxes.

Chuck and her will raise money by making a cardboard carton,

doing a rendition of Flattery's Motor Car.

I was too busy to help and said I'd get them later on.

At two o'clock, Doctor Juno and Tina came zooming by again -

but they got in the way of my customers.

At three o'clock, Chuck and Louie came for the boxes I'd promised them.

Only I'd forgotten all about them - I just didn't have the time.

Remember, "There's always time for fun."

"There's always time for fun." Of course!

Everyone's being silly for a good reason!

Chuck and Louie, I'm going to help you build your cardboard car!

Come on!

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

# I'm like a busy bee, I'm gonna beat that bong

# I'm gonna finish this job before I finish this song

# Do we think he's gonna do it?

# Do the job that needs to be done

# Will he know how to fix it?

# Will he finish what he has begun?

# Just as we're friends, he'll get there in the end

-# Because he knows what he will do, hard work he'll do

-I'm gonna do it

# He's gonna do it

# I'm gonna beat the clock before the chime

-# I'm gonna sort it

-He's gonna sort it

# I'm gonna do the job on time

# Like a busy bee I'm gonna beat that bong

# I'm gonna finish that job before I finish this song. # Ta-dah!

It's brilliant. Thanks so much!

-That's OK. I'm sorry I didn't help you both earlier.

-That's OK.

Cool, man, real cool.

OK, guys, let's hit it!

# Oh Flattery had a motor car, it always made a din

# His mother said "That noisy thing, chuck it in the bin"

# But Flattery say "No, that car to me is dear"

# "For every sound that car makes is like music to my ears". #

Oh! I hope you're having fun today, Jack.

Wheeeee!

-Wheeeee!

-SHE LAUGHS

-Look, you're going high! Are you having fun, Jack?

-Yes!

-Good. It's been a great day, hasn't it?

-Yes!

It's been fantastic. Oh! I'm out of puff here.

We'd better head back, your dad will be coming for you.

-Get out of these silly clothes!

-SHE LAUGHS

Rudi! Come in.

-Someone to see you, Jack.

-Hello mate, give us a cuddle.

-Sounds like you had a great time with Granny Murray.

-Yeah!

We certainly did!

-Say thank you to Granny Murray.

-Thank you.

-A pleasure, my darling!

Thanks from me too. I remembered what you said.

"There is always time for fun" and it saved the day.

-Thanks, Rudi. Well, time to get you home.

-Come on, mate.

-Looking forward to next time.

-Me too.

-Bye-bye!

-Come on, Jack.

Let's talk about our time away.

And I suppose YOU want ME to tell YOU about my time too.

# Well, there was

# Hello, meeting, bye-bye, closing, waking, dozing

# Eating, sleeping, glueing, chewing

# Sticking up and wiping round Washing up and splashing down

# Then there was hugging, squishing, walking, pushing

# Dancing, dusting, sharing, choosing, talking, cooking

# Laughing, joking, losing things and rushing round

# Picking up and putting down

# Then there was laying, running, creeping, joking

# Painting, laughing, baking, bathing, singing, swinging

# Walking, hiding

# Jumping up and turning round

# Dressing up and sitting down! # Ha-ha!

But what was really special about today? Well...

Claude was dressed as a silly nurse, because it was Silly Day today

to help raise lots of money for Harlequin Hospital.

We dressed up in silly clothes too.

Then we went out to enjoy Silly Day with the rest of Riverseafingal.

Practically everyone was dressed up in silly clothes

or doing silly things.

In the park, we watched a seesaw marathon that had been going on

since seven o'clock this morning! It was very silly!

In fact, I wonder if it's still going on just now?

After that we had a lot of fun on the swings.

Then we got back home just in time for Rudi to pick up Jack.

We had a great day!

I think Rudi had a great day too, and he remembered that

"There's always time for fun."

Maybe I'll put my silly clothes on tomorrow and have another Silly Day!

What do you think? Good idea? I hope you enjoyed yourself.

Me too! Bye-bye, honey pie.
