1:00:05
All through the wintertime,
he hid himself away
1:00:10
Ashamed to show his face,
afraid of what others might say
1:00:16
All through the winter,
in his lonely clump of weed
1:00:22
Till a flock of swans spied him there
and very soon agreed
1:00:28
"You're a very fine swan indeed!"
1:00:35
"A swan?
1:00:36
"Me a swan? Nah, go on."
1:00:39
They said, "Yes, you're a swan.
Look at yourself in the lake. You'll see."
1:00:43
And he looked and he saw
and he said, "I am a swan!
1:00:47
"Whee!"
1:00:50
I'm not such an ugly duckling
1:00:53
No feathers all stubby and brown
1:00:57
For, in fact, these birds,
in so many words said, "Tsk!
1:01:01
"The best in town!
1:01:03
"Tsk! The best! Tsk! Tsk! The best!
1:01:06
"Tsk! Tsk! The best in town!"
1:01:09
Not a quack, not a quack,
not a waddle or a quack
1:01:13
But a glide and a whistle
and a snowy white back
1:01:17
And a head so noble and high
1:01:23
Say who's an ugly duckling?
1:01:27
Not I!
1:01:36
Not I!
1:01:38
So, Lars, it shouldn't make any difference
if they won't play with you.
1:01:42
But it does. I want to play with them,
1:01:45
but they make fun of me because I was
sick and the doctor shaved my head.
1:01:50
Yes, but look at what happened
to the ugly duckling.
1:01:53
One day soon, you'll look in the mirror -
1:01:55
much sooner than you think -
1:01:58
and your hair will be grown out,
and you'll be just like the ugly duckling.
