I'm a storyteller, and my stories must be told.
I have many stories, tales for both the young and old.
On my many travels I have seen many faces,
many tales have I from many places.
In Russia I am Ivan, in England I am John.
In Germany I'm Johan, In Sweden I am Jan

Once upon a time
Not so long ago
There was a little girl and her name was Emily
And she had a shop
There it is
It was rather an unusual shop because it didn't sell anything
You see, everything in that shop window was a thing that somebody had once lost
And Emily had found
And brought home to Bagpuss
Emily's cat Bagpuss
The most Important
The most Beautiful
The most Magical
Saggy old cloth cat in the whole wide world
Well now, one day Emily found a thing
And she brought it back to the shop
And put it down in front of Bagpuss
Who was in the shop window fast asleep as usual
But then Emily said some magic words
"Bagpuss, dear Bagpuss
Old fat furry cat-puss
Wake up and look at this thing that I bring
Wake up, be bright
Be golden and light
Bagpuss, Oh hear what I sing"
And Bagpuss was wide awake
And when Bagpuss wakes up all his friends wake up too
The mice on the mouse-organ woke up and stretched
Madeleine, the rag doll
Gabriel, the toad
And last of all, Professor Yaffle, who was a very distinguished old woodpecker
He climbed down off his bookend and went to see what it was that Emily had brought

He-man... And the Master of the Universe!
I am Adam, Prince of Eternia, Defender of the Secrets of Castle Greyskull.
This is Kringer, my fearless friend.
Fabulous, secret powers were revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said: "By the Power of Greyskull!"
He-man, He-man...
I have the power!
Kringer became the mighty BattleCat and I became He-man, the most powerful man in the Universe!
Only three others share this secret...
Our friends the Sorceress, Man-at-Arms, and Orko.
Together we defend Castle Greyskull...

This is a lie. You know it, we all know it.
I'm very disappointed in you. If your father was alive he'd turn in his grave.
