Friday's assembly

As our assembly is on Friday, I'd be very grateful if the children could practice the lyrics to the song 'The Ugly Duckling'. Also, if anybody has a duck/ bird/ chicken costume or even feathers of some sort that we could use it would be fantastic if you could let me know!

There once was an ugly duckling
With feathers all stubby and brown
And the other birds said in so many words said
QUACK get out of town
QUACK get out, QUACK QUACK get out, QUACK QUACK get out of town
And he went with a quack and a waddle and a quack
In a flurry of eiderdown.

That poor little ugly duckling
Went wandering far and near
But at every place they said to his face now
QUACK get out of here
QUACK get out, QUACK QUACK get out, QUACK QUACK get out of here
And he went with a quack and a waddle and a quack
And a very unhappy tear.

All through the wintertime he hid himself away
Ashamed to show his face, afraid of what others might say
All through the winter in his lonely clump of wheat
Till a flock of swans spied him there and very soon agreed
You’re a very fine swan indeed! 

A swan? Me a swan? Ah, go on!
You’re a swan, take a look at yourself in the lake and you’ll see
And he looked, and he saw, and he said
I am a swan! Wheeeeeeee! 

I’m not such an ugly duckling
No feathers all stubby and brown
For in fact these birds in so many words said 
QUACK the best in town
QUACK the best, QUACK QUACK the best QUACK QUACK the best in town.
