Willie were lost at sea I'm glad we

found them again those two disgust me

all they think about is

food oh then again what else is there to

think about we're all hungry Charlie

it's really hard to be penniless at

Christmas time when everyone else is

doing fine getting presents eating big

dinners with their

families our present this year is that

our troubles are over and that's good

enough for

me

awful sir they couldn't have gotten far

I'd guess they're hiding out somewhere

in our district you would guess they're

hiding out somewhere H yes sir well

that's brilliant but where are they

hiding out no sir I'll find out Sergeant

get on the stick now yes

sir as the sun set on another day

Pinocchio and his band of fugitives

found shelter in a Shack by the Sea they

were cold and hungry but at least they

were safe for the time being this a

season to be jolly but I can't cuz my

stomach's growling if you ask me we

should have grabbed that goose when we

had the

opportunity yeah nobody asked you so

just say save your breath that way you

won't get so hungry oh

Pinocchio I'm sorry I couldn't make you

a boy instead of a puppet I don't have

magic powers like they say I

do but father I am becoming a boy got a

glint in my eye you never saw that on a

puppet you're an amazing puppet but a

puppet nonetheless let's not fool

ourselves with fantasies you're not

becoming a boy yes I am and Gina agrees

right Gina you said I've been looking

more lifelike

lately Gina dear what's the

matter oh my she's got quite a fever

it's much colder here than it was on the

island she must have caught the flu we

have to take her to a doctor we can't do

that we're on the run all we have to do

is set foot in town and lock us up and

throw away to K and they wouldn't get

her a doctor

either if we could just get her

something to bring the temperature down

the temperature's down low enough to

suit me it's freezing in

here I meant her fever it's very high

and some medicine would help I guess all

we can do now is keep her comfortable I

wish we had some food for

her that's

[Music]

it here where do you think you're going

I've got to get something for Gina I

can't watch her suffer like this but if

you get caught there's no telling what

they'll do to you just stay here we'll

figure out something I'll be careful

don't worry about me no wa Pinocchio

take care of Gina till I get

back

[Music]

wait If I Only Had some money I could

buy Gina some

medicine wow the child who lives here

must have everything they

want I bet they're never

[Music]

sad I'm sure Gina would feel better if

she had some toys hey look at a walking

talking doll hi there

huh oh you startled me I'm not used to

dolls talking who's Annie me we can talk

to people who listen but you can walk

sure but you don't know how much trouble

it causes when a doll walks they're

always b*ating me up or throwing me in

prison so what we get b*at up all the

time huh sure kids always knock us

around they pull our arms and legs and

carry Us by our hair oh I never thought

of

that that's the child that owns

[Music]

US whose doll is that I don't remember

seeing him

before oh he must be an early Christmas

present oh you're

heavy

uhuh

oh you're my new Christmas doll and you

can do all kinds of

Tricks oh you're so

sweet coochie coochi

Co how come you went and did that oh my

you're alive doll please leave me alone

I'm afraid don't hurt me don't be scared

I wouldn't hurt a fly why are you

wearing that Veil over your face oh it's

my mother's but we children wear them on

Christmas to receive presents from the

minister I can't believe it you speak

just like a real person I don't even

understand it myself but it sure does

cause a lot of trouble sometimes oh I

love the way you can move your arms and

legs I had an accident when I was seven

and the doctor says I'll never be able

to walk again gee I'm sorry you're like

most puppets you can't get around

without help I guess you're right just

like a puppet well I was going to get my

present from the minister but my parents

aren't home now they have lots of

presents for me anyway so it doesn't

matter I'm just grateful for all the

things I already have I need to ask you

a favor just say you won't be mad at me

be mad about what your Veil I'd like to

borrow it for a while what borrow my

veil but it really belongs to my mother

well that's all right I'll bring it back

yes but why I can't even go get the

gifts I don't think it would be fair for

you to take one instead of me so you

think that's unfair do you you don't

know what the word means oh yes I

do but my friend needs medicine badly

and I can sell presents for

money all right but you'll have to bring

it back it is my mother's I'll bring it

back I promise

thanks hey remember to return it to me

[Music]

friend the golden bells of St Tristan's

told in the fresh night air Christmas

Eve had finally arrived all the town's

children were ready they had been

waiting for weeks now with their happy

voices in chorus they set out on their

candlelight march to get their

[Applause]

[Music]

presents such was the custom of the town

the children didn't mind one bit getting

their gifts that night instead of

waiting for Christmas day the tradition

called for them to wear veils and

marched to where the minister would hand

out surprise packages to everyone there

wasn't a sad face in the

crowd hey Jack have you ever seen any

anything like this no I bet their

parents already bought them a bunch of

presents but there they go to get more

some kids have all the luck Willie

to get lucky maybe sooner than you think

[Music]

Pinocchio all we can do now is pray for

[Music]

soon

what they got away again I'm sick of

this puppet making fools of us you have

failed to make a simple arrest of a toy

in his animals well you know how we're

going to find them we're going to burn

every doll in this town every single one

until we find that sorceress puppet it

was the saddest Christmas Eve the town

had ever known the soldiers almost

stopped Christmas from coming all

together by seizing the children's dolls

and burning like so much

trash children begged their parents to

make the soldiers stop but grown-ups

were frightened of the soldiers

too hey my doll wants to stay with me

how could those soldiers do such a thing

this is absolutely

[Music]

despicable this is all on account of

me because of you this poor girl is

suffering terribly there's no sane

reason to take away her dolls she can't

run around like other children so often

these toys are the only friends she has

I beg of you to relent please let her

keep them don't you see it's the only

right thing to do who do you think you

are telling me what's right I'll take

those dolls and do whatever I like no

I'm not going to let you take even one

Commander what purpose could it possibly

serve to take away her dolls please be

reasonable I'm being very reasonable I'm

not burning you am I take those dolls

and burn them I can't let you do this

out of my way give me those dolls oh no

not my dolls you can't have them I won't

let you no give them to

me give them back I want I want my

dolls give them back

back oh no

don't you can't do this to me it's not

right it's not fair

[Music]

please why are you crying

h

Huh hi I brought you something I hope

will cheer you up the veil here it is

take it you kept your word I'm sorry I'm

a little late that's all

right

huh you look like the puppet we've been

searching all over for you are that

puppet and I've got you

now all right I'm caught now this girl

wants to play with her dolls could you

at least give them back absolutely my

friend I have no need for these now that

I've got you give her back the rest of

the

men now Pinocchio I happen to have a

great Christmas surprise lined up for

you and I think you'll find it

interesting no right look what I've got

then just let him

go I won't let you treat my friend that

way let him

[Music]

a

[Music]
