Pinocchio

Snooks, where are you? Snooks, what are you doing by the radio? I'm gonna listen to Lady Esther's Green Girl show. Oh, I see. And why that show? Because it's like yellow and yellow pudding. And you know what?

What? I like it. Well, come on, Snooks. You're going to have a busy day tomorrow and it's time you went to bed. Why? Well, I should think you'd want to go to bed and rest up for tomorrow.

Then you can play with your new Christmas toys all day long. Are you born to bed and rest up? No, why? Well, you've been playing with my toys more than I have. Now, let's not be selfish.

Look, will you go to bed if I sing your song? A lullaby? Uh-huh. A rockabye baby? Uh-huh. I'd rather stay here. Well, you can sit by the radio all night. But I want to tell my favorite story about pistachio.

pistachio you mean Pinocchio pistachios and nuts no he ain't daddy he's a little boy the boy's name's Pinocchio I know this story very well so do I his father caught the model wood exactly and you know his father's name?

uh huh what is it? it's a virgin just what I thought you're bluffing now when I was your age I knew the story of Pinocchio backwards You did? Yes. Will you go to sleep if I tell it to you? Backwards?

No, four words. All right, Daddy. How many are starving? Well, once upon a time, long, long ago, there was a kind old man named Japetto. He was a toy-maker, and he lived all alone. No one to talk to but his cat and his goldfish.
