A Trip to Tahiti

Bob Tute: Ah, the beautiful night sky

Susie Tute: isn’t it pretty, bobzy?

Bob Tute: yes, it’s very beautiful and pretty

Susie Tute: I can hear something

Bob Tute: what’s that?

Susie Tute: I just heard the steel drums playing calypso music

**Susie and Bob Tute:** (singing): When you look just where you're going

Never stopping to explore

You miss all the world around you

You treat your eyes to the narrow view ahead

But if you pause just for a moment

You'll see things you can't ignore

And the wonder will astound you

Like the world that's there on the ocean bed

It's wonder time

Time to open up your eyes It's wonder time

And let the sea stars all align

Time to live

Time to give to wonder time

Peter: Oh boy! Tahiti!

Susie: You forget how to swim already?

Pedro: Kinda, I guess.

Bob: Now then… What brings you into the sea? Is somethin’ going on?

Natalie: Kind of. But everything SEEMS peaceful.

J.J.: Oh, everything’s fine…as long as we’re in a good mood.

Susie Tute: but there’s no raft to go home, and now we’ve been stranded for weeks

Bob Tute: so what are going to do to build a raft to get us home?

Sebastian Tute: I’ve got a good idea! We’d like you to come with us.

Pedro: Have we got something to show you! It’s a pretty cool necklace, huh?

Natalie: It looks like some kinda shell.

Susie and Bob: A shell!? Is something wrong?

Pedro: No. Nothing.

Bob: That’s good. So, tell me---how is the song that we wrote coming?

Natalie: It is finished! And it celebrates all the wonderful things found here in the ocean. It will be my finest work.

Susie: Will it get your mind off the human world?

Peter: Er, yes…well… Probably… Possibly…I-I mean, most definitely!

Susie Tute: This is great. I know he’ll be happy about this homemade raft.

J.J.: And just who is this "he"? You know how dangerous to ride a raft to go home!

Natalie and Peter: You don’t even know this one!

Bob Tute: oh dear, the raft isn’t fake enough to go home

Pedro: So help me, I am going to go into you, so this is the only way…be it.

Sebastian Tute: you poor children! But how could I stay away, when I knew you were so miserable? What you need is a music teacher’s advice. What if I could make all your dreams come true?

Natalie: our teacher would never allow it…

Sebastian Tute: Oh, well. It mustn’t be love, if you give up that easily.

Peter: Could…could you really help me? But how?

Sebastian Tute: Well…the only way to get is to rebuilt a raft.

Natalie and Peter: Can you do that?

Sebastian Tute: That’s what I do. Now have I got a question for you, where was the video shot?

Bob Tute: It was shot in Pikes Hotel in Ibiza back in 1983, where it has George and Andrew on the beach with their fellow bikini-wearing backing dancers Dee C Lee and Shirlie Holliman, as well as relaxing poolside with some cocktails.

Susie Tute: wanna know what’s happening at the end? it’s revealed that the Wham! boys are airline pilots and Dee and Shirlie are flight attendants

Sebastian Tute: that’s right!

**Peter**: Please, let me have one! I only want to use that one!

**Natalie**: No, Boy, I’ve got to put them safely back in their pen.

**Susie**: I’ll help you.

**J.J.**: Will you? I thought you only wanted to zoom around at the beach.

**Pedro**: Well, there’s more to being at Tahiti, you know. Here is next week’s song, we are performing a Wii Music version of Come On Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners

Bob Tute: That’s right! Me and cherry doll had just arrived here on this beautiful country called Tahiti, and what we usually do as we build a raft, so, with that we wrote a song about it

Susie Tute: And here it is. We're going to sing it for you right now.

Susie and Bob Tute: It's a tropical day

It's a tropical day

Yes, a tropical day

It's a tropical day

Pack up some towels for our song

And put some cool sunscreen on

You'll need a big umbrella, leave the boots

But don't forget your bathing suits

We have a big bright pail

And a shovel too

You've got one guess

Where we're taking you

Surf, sun, sand, and fun

Make a happy day

Play, play, play on the beach

Chase the clouds away

It's a tropical day

It's a tropical day

Yes, a tropical day

It's a tropical day

Tropical sights like grassy huts

Palm trees full of coconuts

Put on a flower necklace colored bright

A long grass skirt that fits just right

Move your arms light ways

And you're on your way

To all the joy of a tropical day (Tropical, tropical day)

Surf, sun, sand, and fun

Frolic by the sea

Swim, splash, when you're free

It's the bestest place to be

Surf, sun, sand, and fun

It's a holiday

Say, say, say that you'll stay

To catch a sunny ray

It's a tropical day

It's a tropical day

Yes, a tropical day

It's a tropical day

It's a tropical day (We're, we're having some fun)

It's a tropical day

Yes, a tropical day (A little fun for everyone)

It's a tropical day

Half a world away, there may be snow and ice

But not down south here in paradise

It's a tropical day.

Pedro: guys, what’s happening?

Sebastian Tute: A new pathway has opened.

Peter: What? We're gonna go? This is goodbye?

Natalie: I won’t do it! We’ll never say goodbye!

J.J.: That’s right! A-one, two, three, four:

Susie and Bob: Even though we love our raft, it’s shiny and it’s polished.

Bob: Which means…

Susie and Bob: We are free to go home.

Susie: And sing!

Susie and Bob: So don’t be sad, kid, we’ll come back soon in Tahiti to say hello to you!
