Simon: Well, it’s singing lesson time in the Wiggle House and we’re going to sing a lovely, quiet song called Fly, Butterfly, Fly.
It’s a beautiful, quiet song and it goes like this.
Flap your wings, everyone,
Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Lucia, why don’t you have a turn?
Lucia: Of course, Simon.
Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Simon: Oh, that was beautiful.
Now John.
John: I’ll try.
Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Simon: Lovely John.
What about you, Tsehay?
Tsehay: Oh, I’ll try.
Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Simon: Now, we’re going to save the best for last. That’s the Captain.
But before we do, we’d like everyone at home to sing the butterfly song as well.
Let’s try it together.
Here we go.
Wiggles: Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Simon: That was beautiful.
Well done, everyone.
Now, captain, the butterfly song.
Nice and quietly.
Take it away.
Captain Feathersword: (LOUDLY) Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Simon: Oh!
Oh, Captain, that was a great, great attempt.
The Butterfly Song is a lovely, quiet song.
Maybe we could try it one more time. But it goes like this.
I’ll do it for you again. Here we go.
Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Captain Feathersword: I think I got it. Let’s see.
Butterfly…
(LOUDER) …fly, butterfly.
Oh. Oh, dear.
I want to be able to sing softly, but I just keep singing really loud.
I think I need some help.
Simon: Yes. What to do, what to do?
John: I have an idea.
Let’s call Lachtavia Larynx.
He’s an excellent singing teacher.
He’ll be able to help you, Captain.
Lucia: Hello, Lachtavia
Simon: Lachtavia Larynx
Anthony: Singing specialist
Tsehay: We heard you’re the best
Simon: Yes, Captain’s singing loudly
Captain Feathersword: I want to sing softly
Simon: We need your help
All: We need your…
(SHOUTS) HELP!
Simon: He said he’s on his way.
(DOORBELL)
All: Wow, that was quick!
Lachy (as Lachtavia Larynx): Hello, Wiggles
How can I help?
Narrator: How will Lachtavia Larynx get Captain Feathersword to sing quietly?
Will be able to “sol-fa” the problem?
Or should we all just get earplugs?
Lucia (Voiceover): The Letter ‘T’.
Lucia: T, t

Captain Feathersword: Oh, Lachtavia, I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m having a real problem singing softly and beautifully like everybody else.
Lachy (as Lachtavia Larynx): Oh, well, Captain, would you try it for me once, please?
Captain Feathersword: OK. Ahem
(LOUDLY) Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Lachy (as Lachtavia Larynx): Oh, that was beautiful, Captain..
But try it like this, this time.
Make butterfly hands.
And purse your lips.
Try it like this.
(SWEETLY) Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Captain Feathersword: Wow! That was amazing.
Ok, I’ll give it a shot, Lachtavia.
Here we go.
Lachy (as Lachtavia Larynx): Butterfly wings.
Yes, purse your lips.
Captain Feathersword: (HIGH AND PIERCING) Butterfly, fly, butterfly…
Lachy (as Lachtavia Larynx): Captain, that was beautiful, too.
But you know what?
You might not be able to sing like a butterfly, but I think you can sing like a pterodactyl.
So try this.
Dinosaur, dinosaur, roar!
Captain Feathersword: Wow, I like that.
OK. Let’s see, Lachtavia.
(LOUDLY) Dinosaur, dinosaur, roar!
Lachy (as Lachtavia Larynx): Captain!
Lachy: Henry works with one hammer, one hammer, one hammer
Henry works with one hammer
Then he works with two!
Henry works with two hammers, two hammers, two hammers
Henry works with two hammers
Then he works with three!
Henry works with three hammers, three hammers, three hammers
Henry works with three hammers
Then he works with four!
Henry works with four hammers, four hammers, four hammers
Henry works with four hammers
Then he works with five!
Henry works with five hammers, five hammers, five hammers
Henry works with five hammers
Then Henry goes to sleep.
