The Kite

Toad?
Yes Frog?
We are in luck
There is a nice breeze today
Our kite will fly up and up into the sky
Really, Frog? You think so?
I'm sure of it

Now, I will hold the ball of string
And you will hold the kite and run and run
Alright, here I go

What is so funny?
That kite won't fly
Not in a million years
You might as well give up
This kite will fly, way up into the air

Look up there in the air
I don't see it anywhere
I guess it must be on the ground
Boo, boo, boo, in the blue
I don't see a kite, do you?
I wonder where it could be found

The weather is lovely, sunny, and bright
An absolutely perfect day to go outdoors and drag a kite
Way up high in the sky
That piece of junk will never fly
You'll never get it off the ground!

Frog, I give up, this kite will not fly!
This kite will fly!

By and by, it'll fly
We must make another try
No matter what those birds have said
This time though, when you go
Here's a trick you need to know
Keep the kite above your head!

Way up high in the sky
Now this kite is gonna fly
I'm gonna get it off the ground (that's right!)
I will run and hold the kite above my head
And then you birds will see some real flying
Oh, we believe you, Toad
We can't wait to see some real flying

Holy smokes, holy cow!
He's really got it flying now
We thought it might have been a dud
We were wrong, you were right
That's a mighty kind of kite
It's difficult to fly through mud

Frog, this kite is a piece of junk!
It is not a piece of junk!
You'll never get it off the ground

Our kite is a dandy
Superior string
You ran fast and held it high
But there is just one other thing
What's that?
While you're running and holding it high
You must jump and wave your arms!

Very well, Frog, but I'm warning you
This is my final try, this time, if it doesn't fly
I am gonna leave it on the ground
Yes Toad, wave your arms
That'll make all the difference
I can't believe he's gonna try it again
Toad never learns

Hey, wait a minute? Look at that
Could it be?
Yup, yup, yup! It looks like it's going up
Holy smokes, holy cow!
He's really got it flying now!

Oh my gosh! Golly gee!
That looks mighty high to me!
That kite is really flying
Our kite is really flying
That kite is really off the ground!
