DIRTY WORK

Dirty work, someone’s got to do it
dirty work, now do not you make a fuss
Dirty work, someone’s got to do it
Dirty work, and That someone is us.

Rich pickings on the dirt pile
Shoveling junk
Rooting through the rubbish
The smell and the funk
Standing on the scrap heap
The Rotten and the bad
Filling up our bellies
Rich pickings to be had

Dirty work, someone’s got to do it
dirty work, now do not you make a fuss
Dirty work, someone’s got to do it
Dirty work, and That someone is us

Keep on working, keep it going
We grow stronger by the day
As the cats grow soft and lazy
in their crunchie munchie way
Suffer for success
And we’ll overcome the cats
The time is near, surely
When the city will belong to rats!

Dirty work, someone’s got to do it
dirty work, now do not you make a fuss
Dirty work, someone’s got to do it
Dirty work, and That someone is us

Just before dying Kengah lays and egg and on her last breath she begs Zorba the cat

            to take care of the egg,

 to look after the chick and

to teach him/her to fly.

KENGAH SONG

Although my life has been short,

i’t hasn’t been so bad
No tears or regrets for the life

I’ve had
I’ve spread my wings against the blue,

blue sky
There can be no greater pleasure

than to fly

But what makes me feel sad, is that

I won’t be there for you
Oh so sad, that I won’t be

there for you
And I pray, our new friends

can help you through
All the days, ’til you are grown up too
But all I really want to do,

is fly with you…
fly with you…

I AM HAPPY TO BE A CAT

We walk along the streets

All the good friends that we meet

They all say hi

We stroll without a care

Breathe in that salt sea air

Our heads held high, oh so high

I am so happy to be a cat

I am so happy to be a cat

We’re altogether now

It feels so good and how

I am one of the crowd

We’re having so much fun

I’m here with everyone

I feel so proud, oh so proud

I am so happy to be a cat

I am so happy to be a cat

Yeah  I’m with my mum and friends

In a world that could not end

I want to see it all

I want to do all there is to do

Be all there is to be

I want to walk tall

Walk so tall

I am so happy to be a cat

I am so happy to be a cat

I am so happy to be a cat

I am so happy to be a cat

An enchanting impossible dream to make true: a story of

the friendship and respect of diversity

I CAN FLY

And  now my feet don’t touch the ground

I’m floating in  mid air

It feels so strange to be up here

The boxes and dots are away down there

Looks so different the world has changed

The way it looks to me

And let give thanks to all my friends

Who helped me through

I can fly I didn’t believe I could

I can fly

look at me now

It’s so easy now I know how

Look at me now. It’s so easy

So this is really who I am

I have found my wings at last

But a tear will not will not bring me down

I am having to run fast

Distant skies and far off oceans

Are calling out to me. This is

My life I have to go I must fulfill

My destiny.

I can fly I didn’t believe I could

I can fly I didn’t believe I would

I can fly

Look at me now

Look at me now

It’s so easy now I know how

Look at me now

Look at me now

WHAT CHILDREN LEARNT FROM THE STORY

WE LEARNED THAT THE PROMISES ARE KEEPED

DIVERSITY IS A RESOURCE

UNITY IS STRENGTH

WHO FINDS A FRIEND FINDS A TREASURE

THE ENVIRONMENT IS RESPECTED

 MAKE YOUR DREAMS TRUE

“Only those who dare can fly”
