animal stories
the story of peter the peacock
[Music]
peter the peacock was terribly proud
of his lovely tail feathers which stood
out in a crowd
but alas this young peacock was shallow
and vain
he loved only himself and he made that
quite
plain peter loved to show off
to strut and to preen in the places
where folk
go to see and be seen all dressed up in
their best
they'd go out for the night and dance at
the disco
until it was light
when pete strutted in he revealed his
fan
tale all the girls swooned
he just couldn't fail one p
hen called penny dressed always in brown
she couldn't afford the posh shops in
town
but though she dressed plainly not
flashy or smart
beneath her drab clothes beat a warm
loving heart poor penny looked on
for dance after dance wishing that peter
would spare her a glance but dancing
till dawn
just isn't right it's bad for your
feathers
to shake them all night soon
peter's tail was peppered with holes
by the end of the week all he had were
ten
poor poles panicked and let out a shout
my feathers he cried they've all fallen
out
he quickly found glue in a really big
pot
and he stuck them back on each in the
right spot
[Music]
he went out that night but he wasn't in
luck
for after one dance he soon came unstuck
when everyone saw they pointed and
laughed
what happened to you you really look
daft
you're no longer handsome the great king
of cool
in fact you look silly a featherless
fool peter fled home to hide
his head hung in shame until someone
outside
called out his name it was penny the
peahen
concerned at his plight she said i just
came
to make sure you're all right
pizza don't come near i look really
revolting
don't worry said penny you probably
molting
i'm sure very soon you'll grow back
every feather
and then you will be just as handsome as
ever
so for the next month pete stayed cooped
up inside with his faithful friend penny
right by his side his feathers grew back
just like penny said they looked even
better
blue yellow and red penny made for the
door
to let the hens know but peter cried
stop
i can't let you go when i lost all my
feathers
i gained something new and i'd lose them
again
if i could swap them for you though your
dress doesn't glitter
from neckline to hem you're a
beautiful person a treasure a gem
how silly i've been the famous chap
going
it's what lies inside makes a person
worth knowing
and because she had been such a genuine
friend
penny the pee him got her man in the end
