Comfy 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. #

Eight 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, 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 Beth and we've got Emma

but don't just sit there, my poppets. Come on!

Let's get busy.

What's on Granny Murray's shelves today? Cushions.

Well done, girls.

One for Beth and one for Emma.

You sit down there.

ALL: # Sands of the sea

# Bobbing up and down like this

# Sailing the ocean

# Bobbing up and down like this

# They may build the ships, my lad

# Bobbing up and down like this

# But you can't beat this boys of the old brigade

# Bobbing up and down like this. #

Yay! Well done! That was good.

Now, we've got Beth and Emma but someone's missing from home today.

Oh, not any more!

Who's coming home to Granny Murray?

Whose legs are those coming down the steps?

Ah, yes, it's Lisa with Tina.

Hello there!

Tina and Lisa!

Come on through. Nice to see you!

THEY ALL LAUGH

Here we are.

Blimey! Oh, what a lot of bobbers!

Now you're here, Lisa will do something new.

Why don't you dress Claude up as Mr Cushion?

Not like Raymond's Mr Cushion!

I got the idea when I saw Raymond as Mr Cushion at Lisa's nursery.

-That's my boy!

-Let's bob over to the chairs.

Boing! Boing! Boing!

THEY LAUGH

You must be proud of Raymond,

doing these characters to make children laugh.

But Raymond's got his job on the train

and I drive the taxi.

-It doesn't leave much time.

-Well...

Take today, Raymond will be rushing

around between the station and garage between shifts.

Why don't you meet for...

All so that Micky-John can make a video performing as Mr Cushion.

-Why don't you...

-Busy, busy, busy!

-Stop, Tina, stop!

-Stop? I can't stop!

Sometimes you just need to stop and listen.

Listen? I would if I had the time.

You've got time for a wee look at Claude!

Oh, my goodness!

Och, you make a great Mr Cushion.

-This is for you.

-Oh!

What is it, Lisa?

Oh, look, Granny Murray! It's Raymond as Mr Cushion!

Oh, lovely. Have a good day with Granny Murray.

-I'll see you later.

-Come on.

-Bye!

-Bye-bye!

Now remember,

sometimes you just need to stop and listen.

-Thank you. I'll see you later.

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

Me too!

You keep a wee eye on Tina, and make sure she goes the right way to work.

I better hurry. Could you tell me the fastest way to get to my work?

TRAIN WHISTLE Thank you!

# I'm in, in, in, in, in a hurry

# I need, need, need to speed to work

# I take a, take a ticket on the subway

# I'll be, be, be, be there quite quick

# Hurry, hurry, hurry through the tunnels

# Clatter, clatter, clatter underground

# Winding, winding drives the speed up

# Squeaking, squeaking slows us down

# Clatter, clatter, squeaking, squeaking to our stop!

# I'm in, in, in, I'm in a hurry

# I need to speed to work! #

Phew! Well, what now?

Of course! I have to get ready for work!

All dressed and ready to go!

-Wait!

-Oh! Hello, Mickey John. Is everything OK?

-Did Raymond tell you I was coming here to film a video?

-Yes...

-Can you show me the costume for Mr Cushion?

-Er... If you say so!

I need to see it for background, lighting, that sort of thing.

There you go.

-One Mr Cushion costume.

-Mm, interesting!

Now...where shall we film this video?

Where will Mr Cushion look most fabby as he performs for the nation?

-Any ideas?

-Listen, mate, you can shoot it wherever you like.

I'm off now, I'm late for work!

I've got it! We'll film it in your taxi.

-We'll call it Mr Cushion Catches A Cab.

-Hold on!

You have to be back here before 3pm for rehearsals.

But Mickey John, it'll...

Oh well. At least I'll get to spend some time with my Raymond.

Or should I say, my Mr Cushion!

I wonder how my little Cushion is doing.

Well done, you! A perfect sandcastle.

Oh, now it's got a flag.

Good girl! I think I'll get a wee seat.

Here we are. Ahhh!

-Watch out!

-Ohhh!

Oh no! Oh, Lisa, we'll have to build another one.

And there was me telling your mum she wasn't listening!

I love you, Mummy.

Well, I've got so much to do today, I better get down to some hard work.

# City roads are waiting

# Oh, the traffic lights are changing

# Police cars are cruising

# The trucks keep a-trucking The city roads are waiting for me!

# To take a drive in my pretty pink 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

# Drive, drive, drive in my pretty pink taxi

# Ride, ride, ride where you wanna go... #

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

# People wave me down and relax for the ride. #

-3 o'clock! Bang on time!

-There you are, Tina. Ha ha!

-Where have you been?

-Mickey John said 3 o'clock.

I'm on my break from school, I don't have much time.

Don't I even get a kiss?

Oh! Not you, Mickey John! Raymond!

Oooh! Ha ha!

Ah, lovely. Right, I'll just get the camera in focus.

And...action!

# Sons of the sea

-# Bobbing up and down like this... #

-No, no, no! Cut!

-What was wrong with that?

-It needs something more...more...

-More bounce!

-Have you directed a film before, Tina?

OK, Raymond, once more. And this time, give it a lot more bounce!

# Sons of the sea Bobbing up and down like this!

# Sailing the ocean Bobbing up and down like this!

# They build their ships, my boys Bobbing up and down like this!

# But they can't beat the boys of the Old Brigade

# Bobbing up and down like this! #

Oh, Lisa. If only you could see your dad right now!

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal Riverseafingal, that's for me! #

-Granny Murray!

-Come on, my darling, you're slow today.

Keep up, Angel. What's wrong, are you limping?

Have you got something in your shoe? Right, hold that.

Let's see.

Oh no, look!

Your shoe's all full of sand from the sandpit!

You should have told me, Angel.

There you are, my darling. Your mum wouldn't want you bringing sand in!

-That's a wrap!

-Is the film finished?

Yep! All done. Thanks for lending us your taxi, Tina.

I better go to work. Bye, love!

Oh, no! The train'll be leaving any moment!

I better be getting back to school.

-Bye, Tina!

-Bye!

Hey, watch out! Mickey John seems in a hurry.

Oh yes. It's been all go round here.

-I was hoping you'd give me a ride to the shops.

-Sure! Hop in!

-Great.

-BOING!

-Ow! Oh!

-What's up?

-I've got a sore bottom.

-Maybe you should see a doctor.

Oh, you are a doctor! Ha ha!

-Let's go.

-I can't go with you, Tina. I'll get to the shops by myself.

You should get this taxi seen to! It's not fit to ride in.

Oh!

She's gone!

What's going on?

I've had a very busy day, and then one minute, Dr Juno wanted a lift,

and the next she didn't! What have I done wrong?

Where did the time go?

At 8 o'clock, I dropped Lisa at Granny Murray's.

They dressed Claude as Mr Cushion, Raymond's character!

I told her that Raymond and I were so busy, we hardly saw each other.

At 9 o'clock, I got to the garage, ready for work.

Mickey John came round to make a video of Raymond as Mr Cushion!

Mickey John said he wanted to make the video in my taxi.

From 10 o'clock until 2 o'clock, I was busy working in my taxi.

At 3 o'clock, I got back to the garage, ready to help Mickey John.

Raymond put on the costume, then bobbed up and down in the taxi,

singing a song! Mickey John made him do it again.

Raymond was bouncing on the back seat like crazy.

At 4 o'clock, they left, and Dr Juno asked me to drive her to the shops.

But when she got in the back, she said her bottom was sore

and she jumped back out! She didn't want a lift in my taxi.

Why not?

Now remember, sometimes you just need to stop and listen.

Sometimes, you just need to stop and listen.

Maybe I should have listened to what Dr Juno was telling me!

What did she say? "Your taxi's not fit to ride in."

Ohh! No wonder Dr Juno hurt her bottom!

The springs are sticking out of the seat!

It must have happened while Raymond was bouncing up and down.

I'll have to get that back seat fixed. 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

# Got to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee, I'm going to beat that bong

# I'll finish this job before I finish this song!

# Do we think she's going to do it? Do the job that needs to be done?

# Will she know how to fix it? Will she finish what she has begun?

# Yes, we're sure she can She will get there in the end

# Cos she knows what she should do And work it through

-# I'm going to do it

-She's going to do it

# I'm going to beat the clock before the time

-# I'm going to sort it

-She's going to sort it

# I'm going to do the job on time

# Like a busy bee, I'm going to beat that bong

# I'm going to finish the job Before I finish this song... #

BONG!

Oh! Dr Juno! Let me give you a lift home with your shopping.

-I don't want a sore bottom again!

-I listened to you and fixed the seat!

Look!

No more springs sticking through,

and I put cushions to sit on for extra comfort!

-Nothing's too good for my customers.

-The seat looks pretty comfy!

Well, hop in! This ride's on the house.

Oooh!

I can't wait to show my new comfy back seat to Lisa.

Lisa! Tea's ready, darling!

Rargh! I thought that would get your attention! Come on, eat your tea.

Mum's coming soon.

Tina! Come in.

Your mum's here, Lisa!

-Oh, hello, Lisa!

-Hello, Mummy!

-Say thank you to Granny Murray.

-Thank you.

-Big squeezy cuddle!

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

Sometimes, you just need to stop and listen. It saved the day!

I am pleased! Come on, you two. Let's get you home.

Come on!

Bye-bye, my darlings! Looking forward to next time.

-Me too.

-And raargh!

-Raargh!

-Come on. Shall we talk about our time?

And I suppose you'll want me to tell you all about my time too!

# Well, there was...

# Playing, creeping, jumping, chasing, painting, laughing

# Bathing, dressing, singing, swimming

# Rocking, sliding, hunting, hiding Jumping up and turning round

# Dressing up and sitting down! #

Ahh! But what was really special about today? Well,

Claude was dressed as Mr Cushion, because Tina told me

Raymond was performing as Mr Cushion!

Lisa built a brilliant sandcastle.

She told me to be careful, but I wasn't listening and I squashed it!

Lisa tried to tell me she had something in her shoe.

At last, I paid attention and we found lots of sand from the sandpit!

When we got home, Lisa played the keyboard, very loudly!

She couldn't hear what I was saying, so I tickled her!

Later, Tina told me that she remembered to stop and listen.

Thank goodness she did, otherwise her taxi seat would still be broken,

and she'd have no passengers.

# Bobbing up and down like this! #

Ha ha! I do like a good bounce now and then.

I hope you enjoyed yourself. Me too! Bye-bye, honey-pie!

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, by the sea

# I love to skip in Riverseafingal

# Riverseafingal, that's for me

# Get on down to the city

# Where the ferryboat sails are blue

# Time to call on Granny Murray

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