0:08:03 > 0:08:07My mate, Malcolm, had the big wish,
0:08:07 > 0:08:10To fly through the sky like a bird or a witch.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12To get to the air, he tried a big push,
0:08:12 > 0:08:15But without wings he fell in the bush
0:08:15 > 0:08:17Next he thought of another idea,
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Get a balloon and fill it with air.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22He tied it up tightly onto a chair
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Then climbed on the top for a spot of repairs.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28He emptied his pocket trying not to pop it
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Off they flew like a rocket.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32In the sky lightning may shock it,
0:08:32 > 0:08:35More frightening, How will he stop it?
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Now he's spun. It started as fun,
0:08:37 > 0:08:40If he goes on he'll be burnt by the sun.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42He feels glum. What have I done?
0:08:42 > 0:08:45And he hears, come. I can help you, old chum.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48He soon sees the moon, Cool in space,
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Sings, the Sun's too hot. Visit my place.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Malcolm shouts out, Help me get back!
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Moon says, OK, I'll put you on track.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Moon pulls him And throws him in a dash,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01A straight line, He's back in a flash.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03He opened his parachute So not to crash,
0:09:03 > 0:09:07- And touched down safe in the sea with a splash.- Wooh!
0:09:07 > 0:09:09That was out of this world.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13We're heading out of range. We better beam you back.
