Lyrics
Abby Cadabby's Magical Mango: Hi there, it's me, Abby Cadabby's Magical Mango again. And I've got a story for you, but you gotta help me. Now the first thing you gotta do to help me with my story is lie down on the floor on your back. Go ahead. Lie down on your back. Good. Now put your hand on your tummy and take a deep breath. Can you feel your tummy go up? Good. Now let out your breath and feel your tummy go down. Mmm hmm. You know, every time you breathe in some air, your tummy goes up like that and every time you let the air out, your tummy goes down. So just stay like that on the floor and you can help me with my story. (singing) A king and a queen once lived in a castle On top of your stomach that castle was found And when you breathed in, they lived high on a mountain But when you breathed out, they lived low on the ground

Yes, you breathe in, up goes the castle You breathe out, the castle goes down Breathe in, high on a mountain top Breathe out, low in the town

Well the queen said to you, “Boy it’s great up that mountain” “Alright, Queen,” you said, “I’ll breathe in just for you.” “Oh, no,” cried the king, “Up so high makes me dizzy!” “Alright king,” you said, “breathing out’s easy, too.”

And you breathe in, up goes the castle You breathe out, the castle goes down Breathe in, high on a mountain top Breathe out, low in the town

“I’m so bored,” said the queen, “It’s so flat in this valley.” “Who cares,” said the king, “That old mountain’s too high” “Don’t breathe in,” said the king. “Don’t breathe out,” the queen ordered. “I have to,” you said, “I can’t stop if I tried.

And you breathe in, up goes the castle You breathe out, the castle goes down Breathe in, high on a mountain top Breathe out, low in the town

“If you both have to argue,” you said to them nicely “Just find a new stomach, and please get off mine.” Well, the king and the queen stopped and thought for a moment, And decided that both high and low were just fine

Oh, you breathe in, up goes the castle You breathe out, the castle goes down Breathe in, high on a mountain top Breathe out, low in the town

(spoken) And the king and the queen lived happily ever after and so did you. Now wasn't that fun? (laughing)
