And then Hervon Cuckoo and Mr. Salt caught the rhythm
And couldn't help joining in as well
Hey Pepper!
Yes?
Something nobody told me
What?
Who I am
You?
You're the Gingerbread man
Newly baked this morning, take a look at my tan
Hey, hey, I'm the gingerbread man
Like a magic spell I just appeared with a bang
Hey, hey, I'm a ginger, ginger
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger gingerbread man
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, Gingerbread man
Suddenly they found me like a flash in the pan
Hey, hey, I'm the gingerbread man
Rolling round and bouncy as an orangutan
Hey, hey, I'm the ginger, ginger
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger gingerbread man
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger
Gingerbread man
From the tips of my toes to the top of my head
I'm guaranteed genuine gingerbread
As soon as you would like the dress, the party began
Hey, hey, you're the gingerbread man
Ginger, you're the greatest, I'm your number one fan
Hey, hey, I'm a ginger, ginger
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger gingerbread man
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, gingerbread man
One more time
Ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, ginger, gingerbread man
But the fun came to a sudden end
The dresser folk froze with fear as they heard noises
Muffled, thudding sounds
The big ones had woken up and were coming downstairs
Mr. Salt dashed to the transistor radio, turned it off and ran back to join Miss Pepper
Hervon Cuckoo scurried back to his clock
He slammed the front door in the nick of time
For now the kitchen door opened and a blinding light hit the dresser
Mrs. Big One had turned the kitchen light on
Mr. Big One followed her into the kitchen
The Gingerbread man was dazzled by the light
He had no idea what was going on and stood frozen to the spot
Mr. Salt whispered to him to lie down
He did
The big ones were mystified
They were certain they had heard music
Mrs. Big One thought Mr. Big One had left the radio on
But they couldn't hear any music now
Thinking the noise must have come from next door, they started to leave
But at that moment Hervon Cuckoo popped out of his clock
It was one o'clock
Cuckoo, he croaked
What a weedy little noise, said Mrs. Big One
Needs a bit of oil maybe, said Mr. Big One
Past it more like, said Mrs. Big One
Have to get rid of it if it can't do better than that
The kitchen light went out and the door slammed
The big ones went upstairs to bed
Mr. Salt was very angry
He told the Gingerbread man it was all his fault for turning on the radio
Miss Pepper said the dresser folk should never cross with the big ones
Because they could be very cruel
Hervon Cuckoo was sobbing
Mrs. Big One had said she would have to get rid of him
That meant only one thing
The dustbin
The dresser folk explained to the Gingerbread man about the dustbin
And Hervon Cuckoo's bad throat
He said he was very sorry he turned on the radio and to make up for waking the Big ones
Offered to help Hervon Cuckoo get his voice back
But what could he do?
Everyone thought hard
What could cure Cuckoo's sore throat?
Miss Pepper suddenly got the answer
Honey
A dose of honey would do the trick
The Gingerbread man said he'd fetch some
But the others told him this would mean a journey to the high shelf
Where the honeypot stood
It was a long way to climb, but the gingerbread man didn't seem to mind
