[Music]

this one is the one that we called

chicky Nikki listen to the rest of them

let me put him down so you can join the

other fellas I like to keep warm

although we're keeping it very warm here

and well I think one of them is chicky

Micky and another one is Henny Penny and

another one is cluck to be lucky and

another one is jerky Whoopie what do you

think of those names all right what do

you want to call all these guys tell you

a magical story very magical and you can

do it the story and the magic trick um

it's about two thieves and seven

chickens now I don't happen to have any

chickens if you've got chickens you can

use chickens but otherwise like me you

can use seven anything anything at all

seven pennies I'm using seven little

ba*ls of paper one two three four five

six seven once upon a time a farmer had

seven chickens one two three four five

six seven and there were two thieves who

decided to steal the seven chickens and

share them equally so one thief stole

the chicken then the second thief stole

the chicken then the first one took a

chicken and the second one took a

chicken and the first one took a chicken

and the second one took a chicken and

whoops what happened then was the farmer

came back so very quickly

one put back the chicken the other put

back a chicken the other put back the

chicken and then the farmer went away

well the first one took a chicken the

second one ups the farmer came back so

one put back at chicken the other put

back a chicken the other put back a

chicken and then the farmer caught them

gotcha with the good said the farmer now

you would have thought that since the

two thieves had shared the chickens

equally they would be caught with equal

goods but no the first one

two chickens while the second had none

he was empty-handed and so the farmer

had to let him go now we do like to know

how that trick is done the secret is

that when you pick up the thingy the

chicken when you pick it up you always

pick up with your right hand first then

your left then your right then your left

but when you put them down on the table

you always put them down with your left

hand first and then your right and then

your left and so there's always more in

the right hand than there is on the left

and if you do that drink

all about thieves and chickens you will

absolutely steal the show

[Music]

that's that's not the way to do it

I don't it delayed it off well darling

you keep saying you want to be a

musician when you grow up

grow up you practice no I won't play

when I grow up oh come on someday you

might very well be a musician in a

musical group you know rock you know

besides rock bands all right yeah oh

city in Germany

Oh it'sit's a me no no it's not a German

I'm gonna tell you the story of the

musicians of Bremen and in this story

should do

okay I could do it okay they can do it

too well lamb okay lambs go yeah sure I

never said in my life well maybe it's

time you started let's try it

there was this lamb oh good okay story

starts once on a farm they lived a horse

did you do it and he worked very hard

but he got old and he couldn't work

anymore

boy he must have looked like a horse I

didn't realize I said horse what did you

say

yes silly today the farmer who owned the

horse was very mean and he said horse

you're old

get off my farm if you can't work I'm

not gonna spend any money feeding you

didn't that fun I know you could get

hungry from not eating well apparently

not so this horse left the farm and

wandered down the road feeling very sad

get me back for messages why I'm not

gonna sign all that couples from

him anymore oh well the horse came

across an old dog it was sitting by the

side of the road howling what is the

matter I can't forget that means hmm

sorry well the horse

Tsang and by golly he did have a good

voice by golly and then the horse said

to the dog oh by golly don't I have a

good voice he said no no the horse said

dog why don't we go to the town of

Bremen nearby and see if we can get jobs

as seers by golly there's a concept

there's a concept and so off they went

but just as cherry what darling don't

you find out that ripples from that mean

from there either

I won't but just as they were

approaching Bremen they saw a rooster

yes right did you do that awful thing

and and it was sitting on a fence

singing its head off ah it must have had

a strong voice yes our leek a yes and

they asked the rooster what are you

doing here all alone for dinner so I ran

away

well said the horse my friend here the

dog and I we all find singers - oh yeah

let's see if we can sing together and do

you know what by Gauri

alone and the book and the chicken both

found that they made sweet harmony the

pony

while the chicken rode with Li the pop

would sing opera neither your life the

bird could sing rock and roll through

the night and folks on farms from miles

could hear the one that only singing boy

could hear the one and only singing boy

[Music]

the one and only singing heart well this

is when I joined the musicians of Bremen

right well yes yes if you say so they

hadn't gone long before they met up with

a lamb that's me yes we all know it's

you

now this lamb I was crying by the side

of the road now that I'm old and my

master doesn't like my and so they

invited this little lamb to join the

musical group you don't have a place

they say perhaps are you happy hmm

now that you wanted the group well it

ain't the new kids on the block but you

gotta start someplace

true true well the animal musicians had

not gone far before it began to get dark

yeah and they all decided to stop for

the night they saw a house okay but when

they picked in the window they saw that

this was a den of robbers no yes thieves

so the animals came up with a plan

they climbed on each other's backs and

the rooster scared me

he flew right onto the head of the lamb

and then each of the animals sang his or

her own song but they sang them together

at the same time simultaneously rally

and they sang them as loud as they could

they made such an awful noise that the

windows splintered and crashed and the

robbers thought they were being attacked

and the robbers ran out of the house and

into the forest and the robbers were

never heard from again

yeah and the four musicians were so

happy in their little home that they

never left

no no no they lived in that little house

in the forest but every night they drove

to the city of Bremen where they did

their shows and

they even took ads on television and I

know what they did in their ads
