Caterina: Oh, hello there!
What’s your name?
What a beautiful name.
Let’s wave hello to each other.
Ciao, hello
Ciao, hello
Bien venuto to The Wiggles Show
Ciao, hello
Ciao, hello
It’s so good to see you.
Anthony: Here we are in the…
Both: Wiggly Kitchen.
Anthony: …a place of food preparation, eating, good conversation and where you can drink some water.
Caterina: I love drinking water.
I drink two big glasses when I wake up in the morning and regularly throughout the day.
Anthony: Well, have a look at these bottles with water in them, and listen to the different sounds they can make.
The big bottle makes a little lower sound.
(BLOWS)
The smaller bottle - a higher sound.
(BLOWS)
Caterina: It’s amazing how many different sounds there are in the…
Both: Wiggly Kitchen!
Caterina: But what have we here?
Hmm.
What’s this right here
That I can see?
I’m not too sure
What it could be
Can you see it?
You can see it
Let’s look closely
At what it could be
Anthony: It has two paddles to help you go.
With a bow and a stern.
It’s a boat you row.
Caterina: Do you know what it could be?
Anthony: I think you’re right!
It’s a rowboat, you see.
A rowboat.
Hmm… A rowboat.
But what do you do with a rowboat?
Tsehay: Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream
Others: You know we love to row
Rowing fast and rowing slow
You know we love to row
Now give jumping a go.
Tsehay: Jump, jump, jumping now
Jumping down the street
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Jumping with your feet
Jump, jump, jumping now
Jumping down the street
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Jumping with your feet
Others: You know we love to jump
Jumping in the air
You know we love to jump
Now we’re stamping everywhere
Tsehay: Stamp, stamp, stamp your feet
Stamping down the street
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Stamping to the beat
Stamp, stamp, stamp your feet
Stamping down the street
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Stamping to the beat
Others: You know we love to stamp
Stamping down the street
You know we love to stamp
Now clap your hands to the beat
Tsehay: Clap, clap, clap your hands
Clapping to this song
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Let’s all clap along
Clap, clap, clap your hands
Clapping to this song
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Let’s all clap along.
Others: You know we love to clap
We love to clap along
Now let’s row your boat
Back to the start of this song
Tsehay: Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream.
Caterina: We have this rowboat here, and if I put it on the table
…it doesn’t go anywhere.
I have no idea how to make it move.
Tsehay: A rowboat that doesn’t move.
Now, THAT is peculiar.
Anthony: What to do? What to do?
Lachy, any suggestions?
Lachy: Oh.
Hmm…
Oh, well, sometimes when I’m trying to find the answer to a problem, I play the xylophone, and that helps me find the answer I’m looking for.
(TINK! TINK! TINK!)
I am thinking.
(TINK! TINK! TINK!)
I’m still thinking.
(GASPS)
(TINK! TINK! TINK!)
I have the solution.
(TINK!)
Anthony: Lachy, did playing the xylophone help you find the answer of what to do with a rowboat and how to make it move?
Lachy: Yes, it did.
The solution I came up with is for you to go and visit the Dancing Water Police of Wiggle Town.
Their willing faces and friendly smiles will know what to do.
Caterina: Ooh, good thinking, Lachy!
Let’s go and see them now.
(TINK! TINK! TINK! TINK! TINK!)
Anthony: Hey! It’s the Dancing Water Police of Wiggle Town!
Caterina: Dancing Water Police of Wiggle Town, we found this rowboat in the…
Both: Wiggly Kitchen.
Caterina: …and we have no idea how to make it move.
Admiral Sam: Well, you’ve come to the right place. We’re here to help!
Wiggles: They're the Wiggle Town Dancing Water Police
With a smile, they are here to please
Admiral, Captain and the sailors too
Sailor Paul: Come on, chaps! We've got some dancing to do!
Wiggles: Dance!
They dance!
Rap!
They rap!
Formed in 1871
They just dance and have lots of fun
Drinking tea, they say, they say
Sailor Paul: Let's dance, rap, jazz or some jolly ballet!
Admiral Sam (rapping): If you've got a problem, you can't face
The Water Police are on the case
Wiggles: We're jumping up, we're breaking it down.
We're the Dancing Water Police of Wiggle Town!
They rap!
Admiral Sam: You’ve got a rowboat that just won’t move.
Put it in water then bust a move
Wiggles: You’ve got a rowboat that just won’t move.
Put it in water then bust a move!
Dance!
They dance!
Rap!
They rap!
They're the Wiggle Town Dancing Water Police
With a smile, they are here to please
Anthony: Once again, the Dancing Water Police of Wiggle Town have found a solution to our problem.
Thank you, wonderful Water Police because all we have to do is float the boat in water and it will move.
Thank you, guys!

(GULPS)
Anthony: I have a tub here full of water so, if the Dancing Water Police of Wiggle Town are right, when we put the boat in the water it will float and start to move.
Caterina: OK, here goes.
Ready? One, two, three.
All: Yay!
Simon: Look, the rowboat floats and it’s moving!
Anthony: Oh, guys, the Wiggle Town Dancing Water Police really do float my boat.
Wow!
Simon: It’s time for goodbye
Let’s start waving
Waving goodbye to you

Just to sing for you

Goodbye to you

Waving goodbye to you.
