Counting out his money;
The queen was in the parlour,
Eating bread and honey.

Hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird
And pecked off her nose.

Over in the meadow where the stream runs blue
Lived an old mother fish and her little fishes 2
"Swim" said the mother, "We swim" said the 2
So they swam and they leaped where the stream runs blue
Over in the meadow with a hole in a tree
Lived an old mother bluebird and her little birdies 3
"Sing" said the mother, "We sing" said the 3
So they sang and were glad in a hole in the tree
Over in the meadow in the reeds on the shore
Lived an old mother frog and her little froggies 4
"Dive" said the mother, "We dive" said the 4
So they dived and they burrowed in the reeds on the shore
Over in the meadow in a snug beehive
Lived a mother honeybee and her little bees 5

So they buzzed and they hummed in the snug beehive

I thought you the Queen of the land.
Your hair hangs over your shoulder,
It's tied with a black velvet band.
Captain Feathersword: The Prince danced with the fair maiden, and he knew he had found his true love.

You will be the Queen of the land.
Please wear this diamond tiara
I place on your head with my hand.
Captain Feathersword: The Prince and the maiden continued to dance and the maiden knew that she too had found her true love.

You've made me the Queen of the land.

And my hair in a black velvet band.

Your hair in a black velvet band.

And we'll have a pudding in half an hour.

I pray you don't cry,
And I'll give you some bread;
And some milk by and by,
Or perhaps you like custard,
Or maybe a tart,
Then to either you're welcome,
With all my whole heart.
(Transition to Dorothy singing Hush Little Baby to a doll)
Dorothy: (singing) Hush little baby; mama's near,
To brush your hair and calm your fears.
To kiss your cheek and hold your hand,
'Til you drift off to sleepy land.
To help you count those little white sheep,
And sing you songs 'til you're asleep.
To tell you tales of kings and queens, of Jack and Jill and wonderful things.
So snuggle up and hold me tight,
And dream sweet dreams all through the night.
(Transition to Henry)
Henry: (singing) Hush, little baby don't say a word
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird don't sing
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns brass
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broke
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a billy goat
And if that billy goat don't pull
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a dog named Rover
And if that dog named Rover don't bark
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a horse and cart
And if that horse and cart fall down
Well, you'll be the sweetest little baby in town
So hush, little baby don't you cry
Your mummy loves you and so do I
(Instrumental break)
Henry: (singing) So hush, little baby Don't say a word
Daddy's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird don't sing
Well, Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring
