If for a long time
Not so quikly, quikly.
Not so hurry, hurry,
Jump and run and fly and climb!
So maybe, maybe, maybe,
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe,
So maybe, maybe, maybe
We can get to Africa!
A-a mountains are so high!
A-a rivers are so blue and wide
A-a crocodiles, bears,
A-a monkeys, foxes, hares,
A-a and parrot, parrot green!
Story-teller (3): Suddenly a big wolf came out of the woods.

Little Red Riding Hood: What a good idea!
Group : Don’t stop ,don’t stop! Your mummy told you not to stop and not to talk to strangers.
