(So you want to) See a mythical creature Which would you like it to be? To see a mythical creature What d'you think you'd need to see? Snakes for hair, scary stare petrifying Hairy coat, giant feet, terrifying Lion's head, serpent tail, scaly bat wings Oh dear me, oh to see, one of these things (So now you want to) Be a mythical creature Which would you like it to be? If you could be a mythical creature What do you think you would need? Dragon's breath, horse's head, bloodshot eyeballs Cloven hooves, shaggy mane, giant fang-claws Scaly skin, fishes tail, beautiful voice Oh dear me, how to be, so much choice And poof

The last unicorn was born a thousand years ago She had a lovely horn and a coat that was whiter than snow In the physical world she truly was one of a kind When all the other unicorns went away she stayed behind. She lived deep in the forest and rarely was seen The creatures all loved her and called her their queen But as she grew older she wanted to know What became of her family and where did they go She was told by a troll that these secrets could be easily learned But if she left the natural world she could never return She boarded a boat all alone and sailed away And she arrived in the make believe world on the following day Unicorns, Dinosaurs, dragons galore Called out her name as they waved from the shore She was happy to see them and happy to be Forever at home in the land of make believe

Ladies and gentlemen Live from Pibloktoq Arena The mythical match-up of the millennium On the left From the Pacific North-West Nine feet standing tall Six hundred and fifty pounds of muscle A redwood planted in the octagon It’s Sasquatch - Bigfoot He’s a mountain man and a man mountain And on my right From Himalayan Heights Two and three quarter meters high Two hundred and ninety-five Kilograms of might Dinner plate hands and piercing eyes It’s Yeti - Abominable Snowman Another mountain man man mountain Proto-humans go! And tonight Under the lights A clash of monumental might Who’s the best? East or West? Who is mightiest? East and West They’re both the best When it comes down to mightiness

Mr. Breene's mountain bread Won't sit in your belly like a lump of lead Mr. Breene's mountain bread Try some today instead … Of Rye bread, White bread, pumpernickel brown bread Paratha, pita, eat a pizza Croutons, crumpets, croissants, crispy Try them all, they're all good, but nothing compares with Soda, sourdough, yeast, and sprouted Bagel, pretzel, baguette, pancake Pumpkin, potato, banana naan bread Try them all, they're all good, but nothing compares with Mr. Breene's mountain bread Won't sit in your belly like a lump of lead Mr. Breene's mountain bread Try some today instead

Robin Hobgoblin - strangest kid I ever knew Robin Hobgoblin - they say he lives in a shoe Tiny little guy he’s very small Only 14 inches tall He lives somewhere inside the walls He never answers when you call I heard him laughing - did you hear it? Creepy little household spirit And he may never go away Robin Hobgoblin - exactly what does he do? Robin Hobgoblin - he does whatever hobgoblins do At nighttime when the lights go out He starts creeping round the house Fixing things he says are broke But mainly playing pranks and jokes He’s just a creepy little gnome Who eats us out of house and home And he may never go away Robin Hobgoblin’s here to stay

I Medusa 01:39
If you see me out today Turn your face away Unless you want to turn to stone And stand forever all alone I Medusa I used to have long brown hair I used to have a pretty face Now my hair is made of snakes And people say I’m hideous I Medusa You know it’s not my fault I used to be beautiful Now when someone looks at me They turn to stone 123 I Medusa

Dear Yeti, hello Yeti dear Everything is crazy here The people never come outside I rarely ever have to hide I don’t know what is going on But clearly there is something wrong But it’s fun to watch this human zoo I’m doing fine what’s up with you? Dear Sasquatch nice to hear from you Over here is crazy too Normally this time of year We’re mobbed with climbers and their gear But I haven’t seen a single soul The sherpas must be on the dole It’s getting warmer every day I’m afraid the snow will melt away I really wouldn’t worry though I’ve seen the humans come and go I hope you’re happy over there Keep me posted and take care

I am a mythical creature I have some terrifical features I have supernatural powers I live in a far away tower I have no sisters or brothers It’s lonely to be undiscovered I get no respect from the scientists They say I don’t even exist My story’s been told throughout history Still I remain a great mystery I have some terrifical features I am a mythical creature
