- [Narrator] Once upon a time in the Land of Eight

there stood a castle very great

and eight flags waved in the air

for the King of Eight had put them there.

- I'm the King of Eight and I'm here to state

that everything here has to total eight,

the guards for instance by the gate

must always number exactly eight.

- [Man] One. - [Man] Two.

- [Man] Three. - [Man] Four.

- [Man] Five. - [Man] Six.

- [Man] Seven. - [Man] Eight.

- In my castle in back of me

are eight windows you can see,

one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

In those windows are my daughters,

show yourselves my dears.

- [Daughter] One. - [Daughter] Two.

- [Daughter] Three. - [Daughter] Four.

- [Daughter] Five. - [Daughter] Six.

- [Daughter] Seven. - [Daughter] Eight.

- [King] Each daughter has a silver crown

with eight jewels going round.

- [Daughters] One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

- Though I love eight, eight is great,

eight is the number I do not--

- Wait, important news comes from the Queen,

a new baby and I have seen

that she is well and doing fine.

- Good grief, it's princess number nine.
