The Ugly Duckling

The Ugly Duckling
2
There once was an ugly duckling,
with feathers all stubby brown
3
The other birds, in so many words, said, Quack!
get out of town.
4
Quack, Get out! Quack, quack! Get out.
5
Quack, quack! Get out of town.
6
So he went with a quack and a waddle and a quack

And a very unhappy frown.
7
All through the winter time he hid himself away
8
Ashamed to show his face,
Ashamed to show his face
9
Afraid of what others might say.
10
All through the winter in his lonely clump of
weed
11
Until a flock of swans
spied him there
12
And very soon agreed
Youre a very fine swan, indeed!
13
Me, a swan? Aw, go on.
14
Take a look at yourself in the lake and youll
see
Yes, you are a swan.
15
And he looked
And he saw
And he said
16
Gee! I am a swan!
Whee!
17
No more an ugly ducklingwith feathers all stubby
and brown
18
In fact, these birds, in so many words said, WOW,
the best in town.
19
Wow, the best
Oh boy, the best
By far, the best in town.
20
And he swam with a glide
and a snowy white back
21
And a head so noble and high.
22
Now whos an ugly duckling?
Not I !!!
