Never dreamed I’d have such fun, storytelling? I’m Hookede!
When kids love folk n fairy tales, I’m ready to be booked.
Oh Spellbinder, tell me once upon a time,
‘N we’re OFF to Never, Never land, with magic in our mind

Hark! All you story-Lovers, at your now ripe OLI age.
Forget your ills, but NOT your pills, Join us, and Turn a page.

Oh Spellbinders. How We love your company
we’re off to Never, Never Land, where we make rapsody.

We love to tell our fairy tales, tho we’re half past eleven. ,
You’ll never dream the joy you’ll find, like dyin n goin to heaven. .

Oh Spellbinder , story wizards are we,
‘We find rainbows everywhere., Come join our company..

Stretch your love and Warm your hearts, and Come along with me
Adventure, fun and delight, is waiting here for thee. .

Oh Spellbinder tell me once upon a time,
‘N we’re OFF to Never, Never land, with magic in our mind

Never dreamed we’d have such fun, storytelling’s our rush
Kids love folk n fairy tales so we paint them w. a brush.

Oh Spellbinder tell me once upon a time,
‘N we’re OFF to Never, Never land with magic in our mind

Never dreamed we’d have such fun, storytelling? We ‘are Hooked!
When kids love folk n fairy tales, we’re ready to be booked.

Oh Spellbinder , story wizards are we,
‘We find rainbows everywhere., Come join our company..
