Once there was a crocodile,
and, as befits a crocodile everything on him was scary!
He had a scary tail!
Scary jaws!
And in it, very scary teeth! "
- Hmm...
Please get the ball, eh?
- Ah!
No!
- But... please, eh?
- Oh... Well alright!
Oh!
- Uch!
In addition, the crocodile had
a nasty character!
He never, no never
uttered a kind word!
And what was worst :
this crocodile
never cleaned his very scary teeth!
Yes! So no one in all of Africa,
was surprised that one day
he got toothache! "
- Oh -oh-oh! My poor teeth!
Oh-oh- oh-oh!
Oh-oh- oh- oh-oh!
Oh, my poor teeth!
Poor me, crocodile!
Oh! Oh!
- Tee-hee!
Serves him right! It's as it should be!
- Serves him right!
- What's the fun about?
Phew, the crocodile has a toothache!
- Shame on you!
- A... and why it is, we should be ashamed?
- Why is it we should be ashamed?
Oh -oh-oh! It hurts!
well, because he is hurt! He's crying!
- Just think, crying!
It's his own fault! He never brushes his teeth! He should have followed our example!
- Yes! He should have followed our example!
That's a true parrot speaking!
- But how can I brush my teeth,
when I have such.. oh, stubby paws!
Now, if someone could brushed my teeth for me, eh?
- No, thank you! We're no fools!
We're no fools!
- Open your mouth!
See to it that you do not close it!
Aghwraght
Au!
- Well, here it is - the bad tooth!
- Well, there it is...
- You can close your mouth!
- Many, many thanks to you,
Good tari-bird!
The crocodile said a kind word?
Ah! The crocodile said a kind word!
- If you want, I'll come brushing your teeth every day - morning and evening.
- Agreed!
I, today, will not touch anyone!
scratch no one with my claw,
bite anyone with my teeth,
slap no one with my tail
Why I won't?
Who can guess?
Well because the crocodile
is thanking the kind bird! "
Since that day the tari-bird and the crocodile were friends
and one says that the character of the crocodile
became less scary! "
