about

A lovely little story about tadpoles, frogs, fairies, kings and all the usual fairy tail stuff.

lyrics

There was a little tadpole happy in his pond.
Then came a little fairy with a big magic wand.
She waved it round in circles and tapped it on a log.
Said “Allakah – piff – paff – Woo – hah – hah!”. There was a little frog.

Oh, Froggy! What is going on?
You were such a happy tadpole, now everything’s gone wrong.
Oh, Froggy! What’s it all about?
The fairy’s put a spell on you.

Said frog “I’m very hungry. What is there for my lunch?
I’ve grown more in a minute than I would have in a month.
So he jumped straight at the fairy. The wand fell in his lap.
He turned the lass into a fly then ate her for a snack.

Oh, Froggy! Why did you do that?
You could have magic-ed up a spider that was juicy big and fat.
Oh, Froggy! What you gonna do,
Now the Fairy King is after you?

Said the Fairy King to Froggy “I’m really glad you came,
That naughty little fairy, she really was a pain.
She kept changing ducks to donkeys, and chicks to chimpanzees.
So here’s a medal for your good work and a tasty bag of fleas.

Oh, Froggy! Thank you very much.
You’re such a splendid fellow and most slimy to the touch.
Oh, Froggy! What you gonna do,
When the princesses are kissing you?”
