SCRIPT:


Narrator: Once upon a time there was a farm full of hens.  Some were fat, and some were skinny.  The fat hens were always making fun of the skinny hens.


Fat Hen 1: Cluck, cluck … Ha, ha, ha, ha … look at those skinny hens! Cluck, cluck .


Fat Hen 2: They don’t have food to eat!  Cluck, cluck Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha  They look sick…and so pale!  Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, cluck, cluck.


Fat Hen 1: I’m giving a party tonight in my hen house… and you are invited!


Fat Hen 2: Just don’t invite those skinny, little, ugly hens!


Fat Hen 1: Of course not!  I’m not inviting them… the party is just for us… fine and healthy hens!


Fat Hen 1, 2: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, cluck, cluck.


Narrator: But the Cooks of the farm had another plan.


Cook 1: How many hens do you have for the soup?


Cook 2: How many do you need?


Cook 1:  I need only two… but I need them fat!


Cook 2: Let me get them.


Cook 1: Hurry up… the water is boiling already.


Narrator: The cook left the kitchen and went looking for the hens.  Meanwhile in the hen house.


Skinny Hen 1: What are you going to do tonight?


Skinny Hen 2: Nothing… did you know that there’s a party going on right now… and we were not invited?


Skinny Hen 1: Why do you think so?


Skinny Hen 2: Maybe it’s because of the way we look… you know… skinny.


Narrator: Meanwhile at the party, the two fat hens were having a lot of fun.


Fat Hen 1: La, la, la, la, tra, la, tra, la, tra, la, cluck, cluck.


Fat Hen 2: I love that song!


Narrator: Suddenly the cook entered, and pointed at the two hens.


Cook: You … and you … beautiful hens, come over here!


Fat Hen 1 and 2: Oh, no!


Fat Hen 1: I wish I were skinny!


Fat Hen 2: Me too!
