Part 4 of Jack in the Green,

Jack’s mum had already been very busy making string out of straw and advised Jack to start working on their garland. The garland started to take shape and grew longer and longer. Because of its length and with the contest in mind, Jack had the garland put round him in a circle. “Is it not quite long enough Jack?” mother asked. “If we want to win this year’scontest, we need the garland to be much longer than it already is” Jack replied. So mother continued making more string and father helped to keep the garland nicely tied around Jack. After a while, the garland already reached up to Jack’s knees. “I don’t think this is a good idea”, Jack’s father said in a nervous way. “Oh, I will be fine dad, don’t you worry” Jack replied. “This way I can make sure nothing happens to our garland”. It was getting quite hot inside the garland, so Jack decided to remove all of his clothes. “I don’t need any clothes or bed sheets now, the garland is all I need”, Jack said.

Sing-a-long with the song 'Oh, Jack's got a garland':

(Verse 1)

Jack was in his bedroom, feeling oh so grand,

Surrounded by a garland, the longest in the land.

It wrapped around his knees, and it twined around the flowers,

Jack was in a jungle, lost for hours and hours.

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's got a garland, the longest ever seen,

Twisting and turning, like a leafy green machine.

It's getting hot, so Jack took off his clothes,

Now he's dancing in his bedroom, with a cheeky bottom pose.

(Verse2)

The sun was shining bright, and the garland kept on growing,

Jack was feeling warm, and the breeze was gently blowing.

He thought, "Who needs clothes, when I've got this leafy friend?"

So he danced around the garden, till the day came to an end.

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's got a garland, the longest ever seen,

Twisting and turning, like a leafy green machine.

It's getting hot, so Jack took off his clothes,

Now he's dancing in the garden, with a cheeky bottom pose.

(Bridge)

Neighbours peeked over, and they couldn't help but laugh,

Seeing Jack so free, in his leafy green bath.

With a garland for a wardrobe, and a smile so wide,

Jack was the happiest, with nothing to hide.

(Chorus)

Oh, Jack's got a garland, the longest ever seen,

Twisting and turning, like a leafy green machine.

It's getting hot, so Jack took off his clothes,

Now he's dancing in the garden, with a cheeky bottom pose.

(Outro)

So if you see Jack, in his garden so bright,

With a garland wrapped around him, and a smile of pure delight.

Just remember, sometimes all you need is a leafy green,

And a cheeky bottom pose, to feel like a king or queen.
