Lyrics Sample

Have you heard the story

About a boy called Jack?

He climbed up a beanstalk

And did not look back,

Even though there were giants in the clouds.

He was in a pickle

When he sold his cow for beans.

He thought that they were magical

But his mother was not pleased,

So she threw them out the window.

But what she didn’t know

Was that they would

Grow and grow and

Grow and grow...

Grow into a beanstalk

About a hundred metres high...
