But his foot was stuck, he couldn’t rise And a look of fear showed in his eyes Scene 7 The other boy saw and called out in dread “I’ll run for help! Hold tight!” He said But as the boys panic was rising high A shimmer in the water caught his eye Scene 8 Swoosh! Up from below and quite surreal, There came the most magnificent eel Scene 9 A Slimy, silvery, slippery fella With barbells and fins that act like a propeller Scene 10 The boy was still scared but soon he would see That this eel was friendly as friendly could be “Hello there my boy, it seems you are stuck” “Some days we all have a bit of bad luck” “But please do not fret do not fear do not squeal” “For help is here from, Frederick the Eel” Scene 11 Like a flash he swam down towards the trapped foot He sized up the problem and said “you stay put” Scene 12 He spun round and round, as fast as could be Scene 13 One whip of his tail and the boy was set free! Scene 14 “How did you do that!?” The boy said with wonder “My magical powers help all who fall under” “You’re amazing! Oh thank you, you saved my behind” Fredrick just smiled and said “you’re too kind” Scene 15 The boy swam on out of the glistening creek Exhausted, yet smiling from his cheek to his cheek “Now Mr Frederick I really should say goodbye” Then the eel sang a song to remember him by.. Scene 16 “Swimming up and down stream I’m a slippery guy A kind and magical anguillidae I patrol the creek looking for people to help So if you get in a pickle just let out a yelp There in a flash with skin of silvery steel Your very best friend Mr Frederick the eel”
