Dotty and the Dragon

Clara and the Troll
Clatter clatter bang, crash bang, smash bang! Watch out everyone, here comes Clara Clumclutz, the clumsiest fairy in the land! She is the worst disaster case that anyone has ever seen. Oh dear, what can we do with Clara?

Lilly Pilly and the Wizard
Lilly Pilly likes to make everyone laugh. But if someone doesn’t laugh at her tricks, Lilly Pilly gets mad and when Lilly Pilly gets mad, she gets really, really mad. And then, watch out, everyone!
Do you ever get mad, so mad that you don’t know what to do? There is a Wizard here who just might have the magic spell you need.

Gabi and the Goblin
The festival is about to begin. But what is that terrible smell, like elephant poo and squashed ants and smelly socks, all mixed together? It will ruin everything. But not if Fairy Gabi has anything to do with it. She loves festival days, and nothing will spoil this one. Even if she has to face the meanest, grouchiest goblin in the land......
A magical story of the joys of participation in a diverse community.

Dotty and the Dragon
There once was a forest, a deep dark forest, where birds twittered and animals chattered and fairies whispered. One day, a loud sound roared into the forest. What sort of monster is this? And who will try to stop the monster?
Can you feel the magic in the Australian bush? The delightful characters in this story will help to wake up your imagination, help you to feel the spirit of the land.

Bibbly Bubbly Boo
Abracadabra,
Shimshallabam
Alicazam Kazoo.
We make magic when we try,
Bibbly Bubbly Boo.
Give it your best shot
Give it all you got
Come on, give it a go
can you succeed?
If you don’t try
You’ll never ever ever know!
Every time I make a mistake,
I learn what not to do.
So making mistakes is a really good way
of making my dreams come true.
Abracadabra,
Shimshallabam
Alicazam Kazoo.
We make magic when we try,
Bibbly Bubbly Boo.
Give it your best shot
Give it all you got
Come on, give it it a go.

You’ll never ever ever know!

Clumsy Clumclutz
I crash, I smash, I stumble
No doubt, no ifs and buts
I bang and bash and bumble
I’m a clumsy clumclutz
Everything is wrong with me
Nothing’s ever right
I think I’d better take myself outa sight.
Trouble follows me, I’m
a walking accident
of that one fact I am quite confident
Everything’s a shambles wherever I have been
I’m the worst disaster case that you’ve ever seen
(Chorus)
Oh, what can we do with Clara,
She’s as clumsy as can be
With a clatter, clatter, bang, crash bang, smash bang,
She’s a walking catastrophe
Troll says: Oh what a mess!
Fairy: See! Nobody wants me around. Nobody likes me. I don’t like me. What can I do?
Troll:
Stop your tears and
wipe your runny nose
Look down at those perfect fairy toes
Everyone has talents,
charms and blessings too
Everyone is special - that includes you
Monster: Don’t like the sound of this, I’m getting outa here!
Troll : Hey, the monsters are freaking out. Little fairy, I think we have discovered your special talent!
Chorus:
Monsters are scared of Clara,
When she makes such a noise they flee
With a clatter, clatter bang, crash bang, smash bang,
She’s as handy as can be
With a clatter, clatter bang, crash bang, smash bang,
she’s as handy as can be.

Practically Perfect
Fairy: It’s quite a tricky job just being me
And I do the job perfectly
There’s no-one quite like me
I’m the only me you see
I guess I am me perfectly
Troll: You’re practically perfect
You’re perfectly fine
You’re made from a perfectly great design
Fairy: I’m practically perfect
I’m perfectly fine
I’m a mix of all good things combined
Troll: I’m really very likeable, I am quite fine
As clever and bright as a day of sunshine
You could say I’m one of a kind
I’m made from a perfectly great design
Fairy: There’s no-one quite like me
I’m the only me you see
And I am me perfectly.
I’m practically perfect
I’m perfectly fine
I’m made from a perfectly great design
Troll: So if you have a day when you’re feeling rough
When you just don’t feel that you’re good enough
Remind yourself that you have the key
Just try to be yourself perfectly
Together: I’m practically perfect
I’m perfectly fine
I’m made from a perfectly great design
I’m practically perfect
I’m perfectly fine
A mix of all good things combined
I’m practically perfect
I’m perfectly fine
No doubt about it
I’m one of a kind.
No doubt about it
I’m one of a kind!

Shake Away Your Troubles
Wizard says: Here’s a magic spell to shimmy shake out all those angry feelings.
Stamp your foot, ( Wizard says- thump it hard)
Run in circles, (round and round on the spot)
Give a really loud shout. (aah!)
Wave your arms in the air, (wave those arms)
Shake your body about. (shake, shake shake)
Take a deep breath, (sound of breath intake)
Count to ten (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
If that doesn’t work, (we’re getting there) start all over again.
Stamp your foot, run in circles, give a really loud shout.
Wave your arms in the air, shake your body about.
Do the shoo shoo shuffle
Shake away your troubles
Shimmy shake away the frown
Shake it out
Shake it down
Shimmy shake away the frown
Wave your arms in the air, shake your body about.
Come on now, give a really loud shout. (aah!)
Do the shoo shoo shuffle
Shake away your trouble
Shimmy shake away the frown
Shake it out (It’s boogie woogie magic)
Shake it down (groove it with me)
Shimmy away the frown
Shake it out (Mm, mm)
Shake it down (Uh huh)
Shimmy away the frown
(Oh yeh)

Goblin Slime
I’m a goblin and I like nothing better
than to groove and grovel in the slime.
Don’t fit in with the rest of the crowd
Cos slimin’ is my favourite pastime
I love slime, I love grime
I love mucky sludgy spongy grungy slime
You see goblins and slime go together
like honey and honey bees
I love ooze on my fingers
And walking in mud up to my knees
I love slime, I love grime
I love mucky sludgy spongy grungy slime
Me I’m a bit of a loner
Other hobbies are a waste of my time
I have just one love in my life
Stinky oozy greasy squeezy slime
I love slime, I love grime
I love mucky sludgy spongy grungy slime
I said I like slime
(He likes slime)
I said I love slime
(He loves slime)
I said I like ooze
(He likes ooze?)
I said I love grime
(He loves grime)
I love slime, (gross) I love grime, (yuck)
I love mucky sludgy spongy grungy slime (ooh)
You see goblins and slime go together (ooh yuck)
like honey and honey bees (ooh)
I don’t fit in with the rest of the crowd
Cos slimin’ is my favourite pastime
I love slime, I love grime
I love mucky sludgy spongy grungy slime
I love mucky sludgy spongy grungy,
mucky sludgy spongy grungy, mucky sludgy spongy grungy slime.
(I guess that’s what makes him interesting?)

I am a grumpy goblin, everybody beware
I’m a mean and grouchy goblin with a grumpy goblin glare
I’m a grouch, I’m a grouch, everybody watch out

Fold your arms on your chest and do the goblin frown

Forest Fairyland
Smoky gums reach to the sky
This forest is a fairyland
Tiny lights in the treetops high
It’s fairyland. (fairyland)
Feel the magic, breathe the air
Feel the magic, the magic is everywhere
(fairyland, fairyland)
Webs sparkle with dewdrops
This forest is a fairyland
Blue fairy wrens skip and hop
in the forest fairyland
Feel the magic, breathe the air,
feel the magic, the magic is everywhere
(Fairyland, it’s Fairyland)
The forest has a magic spirit
This forest is a fairyland
All the creatures who live in it
make the magic of a fairyland
Feel the magic, breathe the air,
feel the magic,
the magic is everywhere
Fairy forest, fairyland

Fairy forest, fairyland

Imagine This
Can you feel the magic everywhere about?
It’s there if you imagine,
Imagine, imagine,
there’s magic everywhere.
Man says: Aargh! What a lot of rubbish. Magic? Hmmph!
CHORUS of fairies : We’re the dreamtime secrets of the forest
Ssh, find us if you can.
Ssh, we are hidden in the forest,
hidden here since time began.
Man says: Where’s that coming from?
Can you hear the tinkling, the echo of a giggle?
Perhaps it is the tiny folk.
Imagine, imagine,
Little bush fairy folk.
Man says: Bush fairies! Right! As if!
CHORUS of fairies: We’re the dreamtime secrets of the forest
Ssh, find us if you can.
Ssh, we are hidden in the forest,
hidden here since time began.
Man says: Right! I’ve had enough of this. Who is playing a trick on me?
Is that the wind whistling through the trees?
Maybe it’s a magic flute,
Imagine, imagine,
the sound of a magic flute.
Man says: Hah! I don’t hear a thing!
FLUTE CHORUS
Man says: Well, it still could be just the wind.
Fairy Queen: Wake up your imagination
Come feel the spirit of the land
There are ancient secrets in the forest,
hidden here since time began.
Man says: Rightio, no need to whisper. I hear you, alright?
Can you feel the magic everywhere about?
It’s there if you imagine,
Imagine, imagine,
there’s magic everywhere.
Imagine, imagine,
there’s magic everywhere.

Hands Off!
(sound effects of bulldozers)
Hands off the forest,
Leave the forest alone,
the forest is the animals’ home.
Hands off the forest,
animals live here.
A chitter and a chatter
let you know they’re here.
(Sound Effects)
Hands off the forest,
leave the forest alone
the forest is the little birds’ home.
Hands off the forest,
the birds live here.
A whistle and a twitter
let you know they’re here.

Hands off the forest
Leave the forest alone
the forest is our old trees’ home
Hands off the forest
the trees live here
The music through the leaves
let you know they’re here.
(sound effects)
Hands off the forest
Leave the forest alone
the forest is the fairies’ home
Hands off the forest
the fairies live here
A shimmer and a giggle
let you know they’re here

All sing: Hands off the forest
Leave the forest alone
All say: The forest is a bulldozer free zone
(sound effects)
Go away, bulldozers!
