0:27 - 0:29Belinda lived in a little white house,
-
0:29 - 0:31With a little black kitten and a little gray mouse,
-
0:31 - 0:35And a little yellow dog and a little red wagon,
-
0:35 - 0:38And a realio, trulio, little pet dragon.
-
0:41 - 0:43Now the name of the little black kitten was Ink,
-
0:43 - 0:45And the little gray mouse, she called her Blink,
-
0:45 - 0:49And the little yellow dog was sharp as Mustard,
-
0:49 - 0:52But the dragon was a coward, and she called him Custard.
-
0:55 - 0:58Custard the dragon had big sharp teeth,
-
0:58 - 1:00And spikes on top of him and scales underneath,
-
1:00 - 1:03Mouth like a fireplace, chimney for a nose,
-
1:03 - 1:06And realio, trulio, daggers on his toes.
-
1:10 - 1:11Suddenly, suddenly they heard a nasty sound,
-
1:11 - 1:14And Mustard growled, and they all looked around.
-
1:14 - 1:17Meowch! cried Ink, and Ooh! cried Belinda,
-
1:17 - 1:20For there was a pirate, climbing in the winda.
-
1:23 - 1:25Pistol in his left hand, pistol in his right,
-
1:25 - 1:28And he held in his teeth a cutlass bright,
-
1:28 - 1:31His beard was black, one leg was wood;
-
1:32 - 1:34It was clear that the pirate meant no good.
-
1:37 - 1:39Belinda paled, and she cried, Help! Help!
-
1:39 - 1:42But Mustard fled with a terrified yelp,
-
1:42 - 1:45Ink trickled down to the bottom of the household,
-
1:45 - 1:49And little mouse Blink strategically mouseholed.
-
1:51 - 1:54But up jumped Custard, snorting like an engine,
-
1:54 - 1:56Clashed his tail like a lion in a dungeon,
-
1:56 - 1:59With a clatter and a clank and a jangling squirm
-
2:00 - 2:02He went at the pirate like a robin at a worm.
-
2:20 - 2:22The pirate gaped at Belinda's dragon,
-
2:22 - 2:24And he gulped some grog from his pocket flagon,
-
2:24 - 2:27He fired two bullets but they didn't hit,
-
2:28 - 2:30And Custard gobbled him, every little bit.
-
2:34 - 2:36Belinda embraced him, Mustard licked him,
-
2:36 - 2:38No one mourned for his pirate victim
-
2:38 - 2:42Ink and Blink in glee did gyrate
-
2:42 - 2:45Around the dragon that ate the pyrate.
-
2:48 - 2:50Belinda still lives in her little white house,
-
2:50 - 2:52With her little black kitten and her little gray mouse,
-
2:52 - 2:55And her little yellow dog and her little red wagon,
-
2:56 - 2:59And her realio, trulio, little pet dragon.
