Estas son algunas de las fábulas típicas que se le cuentan a los niños. Al final por supuesto tienen su propia moraleja.

The Boys and the Frogs
Some boys, playing near a pond, saw a number of Frogs in the water and began to pelt them with stones. They killed several of them, when one of the Frogs, lifting his head out of the water, cried out: "Pray stop, my boys: what is sport to you, is death to us."

One man's pleasure may be another's pain.

Frog and Toad.
A toad and a frog were sitting on the front stoop criticizing each others looks. Each thought himself beautiful and the other ugly. While they were posturing, a girl happened by and was disgusted by both. "Yeaccchh!!" she screamed, and she stomped on each and ran away.

Percepcion of beauty is subjetive.

Y ahora... ¡a cantar!

ARE YOU SLEEPING? (Frère Jacques)

Are you sleeping, are you sleeping?
Brother John, Brother John?
Morning bells are ringing, morning bells are ringing
Ding ding dong, Ding ding dong.


THE BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly

Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast


I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO BE KING. (The Lion King)

[Simba:]
I'm gonna be a mighty king
So enemies beware!

[Zazu:]
Well I've never seen a king of beasts
With quite so little hair

[Simba:]
I'm gonna be the mane event
Like no king was before
I'm brushing up on looking down
I'm working on my roar

[Zazu:]
Thus far, a rather uninspiring thing

[Simba:]
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!

[Simba:]
No one saying do this

[Nala:]
No one saying be there

[Simba:]
No one saying stop that

[Nala:]
No one saying see here

[Zazu:]
Now see here!

[Simba:]
Free to run around all day
Free to do it all my way

[Zazu:]
I think it's time that you and I
Arranged a heart to heart

[Simba]
Kings don't need advice
From little hornbills for a start

[Zazu:]
If this is where the monarchy is headed
Count me out
Out of service, out of Africa
I wouldn't hang about
This child is getting wildly out of wing

[Simba:]
Oh, I just can't wait to be king
Everybody look left
Everybody look right
Everywhere you look
I'm standing in the spotlight

[Animals:]
Let every creature go for broke and sing
Let's hear it in the herd and on the wing
It's gonna be King Simba's finest fling

[Simba:]
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king!
Oh, I just can't wait to be king! 


UNDER THE SEA. (The Little Mermaid)

The seaweed is always greener
In somebody else's lake
You dream about goin' up there
But that is a big mistake
Just look at the world around you
Right here on the ocean floor
Such wonderful things surround you
What more is you lookin' for

Under the sea, under the sea
Darlin' it's better
Down where it's wetter,
Take it from me
Up on the shore they work all day
Out in the sun they slave away
While we devotin'
Full time to floatin'
Under the sea

Down here all the fish is happy
As off through the waves day roll
The fish on the land ain't happy
They sad 'cause they in a bowl
But fish in the bowl is lucky
They in for a worser fate
One day when the boss get hungry
Guess who goin' be on the plate (uh-oh)

Under the sea, under the sea
Nobody beat us
Fry us and eat us in fricasee
We what the land folks love to cook
Under the sea we off the hook
We got no troubles life in the bubbles
Under the sea, under the sea

Since life is sweet here
We got the beat here naturally
Even the strugeon an' the ray
They get the urge an' start to play
We got the spirit
You got to hear it under the sea

The newt play the flute
The carp play the harp
The plaice play the bass
And they soundin sharp.
The bass play the brass
The chub play the tub
The fluke is the duke of the soul
(yeah)

They ray he can play
He lings on the strings
He trout rockin' out
The blackfish she sings
The smelt and the sprat
They know where it's at
An' Oh That blowfish blow
Under the sea (under the sea)
Under the sea (under the sea)

When the sardine
Begin the beguine it's music to me
 What do they got, a lot of sand
We got a hot crustacean band
 Each little clam here
Know how to jam here under the sea
Each little slug here
Cutin' a rug here under the sea

Each little snail here
Know how to wail here
That's why it's hotter under the water
Ya' we in luck here
Down in the muck here under the sea!!


BINGO.

There was a farmer who had a dog,
and Bingo was his name. Oh!
B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O
B-I-N-G-O
And Bingo was his name. Oh!...
