Puppy-Penguin Duet

Sung by Freddie and Frieda

 

[Freddie & Frieda]

We met on the internet

And fell in love right away

But face to face we never met

That is until today.


[spoken]

Hello Frieda I'm Freddie

Frieda: Uh, I didn't know you were a dog.

Freddie: I had no clue you were a penguin.

 

Freddie:

Could we be compatible?

I'm a mammal, you're a …bird(?)

Things might just get difficult,

Or so I think I've heard.


[Both]

We met on the internet

And fell in love right away

Face to face today we met

And all we can, all we can say…


Freddie: So, whaddya say, Frieda?

Frieda: Let’s Duet!


Both:

Puppy love and penguin passion

Are really just the same

Words for deeper feelings that can

be quite hard to name.


[spoken]

Frieddie: Are you having second thoughts?

Frieda: No. I was just thinking…


Frieda:

Could we have a family.

Probably we would adopt.

How legal would that be?

True love can't be stopped.


Words by Mario Tosto & David Johnson; Music by Mario Tosto

Freddie:

Your folk might not take to me.

I prefer some solid ground.

You dress so formally,

While, as you can see, I just mess around


Frieda:

Your clan could reject  me.

I tend to like the cold.

Rejection can't affect me

We'll be brave and bold.


Freddie: I know you're brave

Frieda: I know you're bold.

Freddie (dubiously): I could dress up a bit and learn to like the cold.


Both:

Puppy love and penguin passion

Are really just the same.

Words for deeper feelings that can

Be quite hard to name.

But they still mean the same!


We met on the Internet

Freddie: I'll be your Romeo

Frieda: I'll be your Juliet

Both: Into the future we go.

Into the future we go

PIG: So, now that we’re in charge we’re renaming this island to Safe Island. If you stay here, you will have nothing to worry about.

FREDDIE: Well, I really want to get on with the exploration, but I’ll certainly stay here long enough to meet Frieda!

NARRATOR: Freddie and Frieda have a date to meet in
person, face to face, for the first time. They walk toward each other from opposite sides of the island, heads down and texting all the way. Which is why they almost bump into each other as they sing about their relationship.
