\nSo he sewed him some wings that could flap through the sky —

\n Snow-hi-dee, slow-hi-dee, oh-hi-dee-hoo.
\n With the clouds high above and the sea down below —
\n Where-hi-dee, there-hi-dee, scare-hi-dee-boo. <\/font><\/p>\n
\n(Happy ending)
\n And he flipped and he flapped and he bellowed so loud —
\n Now-hi-dee, loud-hi-dee, proud-hi-dee-poop.
\n And he sailed like an eagle, off into the clouds —
\n High-hi-dee, fly-hi-dee, bye-hi-dee-boop. <\/font><\/p>\n
\n(Unhappy ending)
\n And he leaped like a frog and he fell like a stone —
\n Stone-hi-dee, lone-hi-dee, own-hi-dee-flop.
\n And he crashed and he drowned and broke all his bones —
\n Bones-hi-dee, moans-hi-dee, groans-hi-dee-glop. <\/font><\/p>\n
\n(Chicken ending)
\n He looked up at the sky and looked down at the sea —
\n Sea-hi-dee, free-hi-dee, whee-hi-dee-way.
\n And he turned and went home and had cookies and tea —
\n That’s hi-dee, all hi-dee, I have to say. <\/font><\/p>\n
