SAM, FARMER'S DOG (angrily): But it is his business. You can eat grass.

JOHN, GINGERBREAD MAN: Would you please tell me why nobody's dancing?

SAM, FARMER'S DOG (in a silky tone): It's my turn, honey. Come on.

ANN, FARMER'S COW: Look out now, JOHN!

SAM, FARMER'S DOG: Hold your tongue.

JOHN, GINGERBREAD MAN: What's the matter?

SAM, FARMER'S DOG: You are splendid for dancing with.

JOHN, GINGERBREAD MAN: Why did you open your mouth?

SAM, FARMER'S DOG: It's the best way of dancing.

A lot of CREATURES join them – cockerels and hens, ducks and turkeys. JOHN, GINGERBREAD MAN seems to be a very important person among them. He is walking with an important air while the queer-looking party is dancing.)

SAM, FARMER'S DOG (to his partner): Are you ready, honey? It's high time you were in my stomach.

ANN, FARMER'S COW: It isn't simple, Sammy, but try.

(They stop while the others go on dancing).

ANN, FARMER'S COW: You look terrible! What's the matter?

SAM, FARMER'S DOG: I've eaten too much gingerbread this morning.

ANN, FARMER'S COW: How much gingerbread did you eat?

SAM, FARMER'S DOG: I ate no one and I'm never going to eat any gingerbread again.

PAM, FOX: Where are you from, gingerbread?

JOHN, GINGERBREAD MAN: Sorry, who? Me? Am I gingerbread?

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday, dear Johnny,

Happy birthday to you!
