Nestled among the steep mountains of Greece was a small village where a young boy was given the job of caring for the villager’s herd of sheep.
BOY: Well, it’s the only job they’d give me!
SHEEP: Baaaaaa!! (comments) (Not him!)
Every day the boy would lead the sheep up the mountain pasture away from the town.
BOY: This is BORING!!!!
SHEEP: Baaaaaa!!(comments)
One day, the boy came up with an idea (Ding!! sfx)
He decided to play a trick on the townspeople.
BOY: I know what I’ll do: I cry, “There’s a Wolf, there’s a Wolf!” That ought to stir some excitement!
SHEEP: You’ll be sorry!!!!
BOY: Ah, what do you know?
So that’s exactly what the boy did. He climbed to the top of the mountain pasture, stuck out his chest, and began his little scheme.......
BOY: There’s a wolf- There’s a wolf!!!
Runnin’ on down the hill,
You know he’s gonna eat up all your sheep
That’s the truth; you know he will
He’s got big, sharp teeth-and that’s no lie
You better come quick or they’re all gonna die!
There’s a wolf- There’s a wolf!!!!
Runnin on down the hill(there’s a wolf!)
Runnin on down the hill(there’s a wolf!)
The mayor and the townspeople heard the boy and came running in a panic!(mumbling in the distance)
MAYOR: Wolf, Wolf, did he say “Wolf”?
T-PEOPLE: Oh, No! Where? etc....
BOY: Wolf? What wolf? HA HA HA!
MAYOR: Young man, we are not amused! Don’t let this happen again!
pg.2
BOY: Oh, yes sir, I promise, never again, never again-
T-PEOPLE: I don’t believe this.....etc.
SHEEP: YOU’LL BE SORRY!
BOY: Ah, go be sheep!
The townspeople couldn’t believe a young boy could be so bold as to lie about something as serious as a wolf! And you would think that he heeded the words of the mayor, but he didn’t, becaiuse the very next day that boy decided to do the same thing....
BOY: I think I’ll do the same thing.
SHEEP: YOU’LL BE SORRY!!!(comments)
BOY: NO, I WON’T!!!!
So the boy once again climbed to the top of the mountain pasture, stuck out his chest, and did just what he shouldn’t do.......
BOY: There’s a wolf- There’s a wolf!!!
Runnin’ on down the hill,
You know he’s gonna eat up all your sheep
That’s the truth; you know he will
His lips go smack, and his jaws go crunch
You better hurry up cause it’s time for lunch!
There’s a wolf- There’s a wolf!!!!
Runnin on down the hill(there’s a wolf!)
Runnin on down the hill(there’s a wolf!)
Once again, the mayor and the townspeople heard the boy and came running in a panic! ( mumbling in the distance)
MAYOR: Wolf, Wolf, did he say “Wolf”?
T-PEOPLE: Oh, No! Where? etc....
BOY: What, you again? HA HA HA! They fell for it- HA HA HA!!!
MAYOR: Young man, you are trying my patience! Don’t let this happen again!
BOY: Oh, yes sir, I promise, never again, never again (suppressed laughter)
T-PEOPLE: Not again! What an obnoxious young lad.....etc.
pg.3
SHEEP: YOU’LL BE SORRY!
BOY: Ah, go knit yourself a sweater!
The next day, the boy was sitting on the ground, lazily picking at some flowers when all of all sudden, standing right in back of him was......the WOLF!!!
WOLF: How are ya?
BOY: Oh, fine and dandy!
WOLF: So, I see you’ve tricking the townspeople.
BOY: Yeah, they fall for it every time, HA HA HA !!! Who are you , anyway?
WOLF: Oh, nobody, really. Just.... THE WOLF.
BOY: Oh, nice to meet you.......AHHHHH!, I don’t believe it! HELP!!!!!
And that boy ran to the top of the hill, stuck out his chest, and sang with all his might....
BOY: There’s a wolf- There’s a wolf!!!
And he’s makin such a scary sound
I know that I was lyin’ all the other times,
But now I’m not kiddin’ around
He’s standin’ right here, and that’s what I see-
He doesn’t like sheep, but I think he likes me!
During this, There’s a wolf- There’s a wolf!!!!
townspeople And now I’m not kiddin’ around
are commenting And I’m really not kiddin’ around
in disbelief. And ya know I’m not kiddin’ around
Come on, I’m not kiddin’ around
Oh, no I’m not-CRUNCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOLF: YUMMY! (smacks lips)
MAYOR: Oh, poor boy- he never realized that liars are not believed even when they tell the truth!
(Townspeople agree as music can reprise to end story)
