not today
Once, there were two princesses...
Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret.
whose Papa was a penguin.
This was because he had been
turned into one by the wicket witch.
This was an...
inconvenient for him..
because he loved to hold
his princesses in his arms...
and you can’t because he
don't have wings like herrings
- Herrings don’t have wings.
- Penguins have wings
which is shaped like herrings
and make matters worse...
is that she
sent him to the South Pole.
which is an awfully long walk..back.
if you can’t fly.
So..When he reached the water,
he dived in through the dept so fast...
that he was in Southampton
waters by lunchtime.
And from there,
he took the 2.30 to Weybridge,
changed at Clapham Junction and asked
a passing Mallard the way to Buckingham Palace.
He swam up the Thames,
out through the plughole,
and gave the cook,
Mama and ...Mrs Whittaker quite a shock.
Now when the girls heard all the commotions,
they ran to the kitchen where
they gave him a good scrub,
a mackerel and a kiss.
and as they kissed him,
guess what he turned into?
- A handsome prince?
A short-tailed Albatross.
With wings so big
that he could wrap them both
his two girls together.
Now, now..
It's time for bed.

Хотя в тексте она, конечно, и в половину не такая трогательная. Если не видеть.
