Jack & The Beanstalk
A Christmas Pantomime!
JACK AND JILL WENT UP THE HILL TO FETCH A PAIL OF WATER.
JACK FELL DOWN AND ROLLED AROUND WITH HIS LORDSHIP’S DAUGHTER.
THE COUNT WAS GRIEVED TO SEE THE GIRL BEHAVING IN THAT FASHION.
HE GRABBED THE LOUT AND KICKED HIM OUT TO QUELL THE YOUNG MAN’S PASSION.
GOOD OLD JACK AND HIS POOR MUM SAID ‘WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW!”
AND SO, HELL-BENT TO PAY THE RENT, JACK WENT TO SELL THE COW.
HE SOLD THE COW FOR MAGIC BEANS, WHICH REALLY MADE HIS DAY.
HIS MUM WENT RED AND SMACKED HIS HEAD AND THREW THE BEANS AWAY.
A BEANSTALK GREW THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT, THAT BURST THE STONY GROUND.
ALL CAME TO SEE THIS MAGIC TREE FROM MILES AND MILES AROUND.
A HAND COME DOWN AND SNATCHED POOR JILL RIGHT OFF THE GARDEN FLOOR.
NONE COULD RESIST THAT GIANT FIST AND JILL WAS SEEN NO MORE.
A FEE-FI-FO AND THEN A FUM DROWNED OUT JILL’S DESPERATE CRY.
ALL LOOKED TO JACK TO GET HER BACK WHO CLIMBED TOWARDS THE SKY….
