02:12 Then one day, a cloud appeared up in the sky.
02:21 And a great heavenly voice spoke from on high.
02:24 Oh, good man, Noah.
02:26 Said the voice.
02:27 The things I see leave me no choice.
02:30 I must send rain and flood one day
02:32 to wash the wickedness away.
02:35 But what few things are good and true.
02:38 Those will be spared to start anew.
02:41 Now, Noah, you must build an ark.
02:45 And these dimensions you will mark.
02:47 300 cubits for the length.
02:49 To cut such logs will take some strength.
02:52 30 cubits high and 50 wide.
02:54 The entrance to be on one side.
02:57 One window and a single door.
02:59 Basement, mezzanine, and main floor.
03:01 It must be built of gopher wood.
03:04 Is that point clearly understood?
03:07 Use pitch to fill each crack or leak.
03:09 I'll begin the rains in a week.
03:13 You have seven days to do it.
03:15 So don't just stand there.
03:17 Go, man, go.
03:20 When Noah got the message.
03:21 What?
03:22 The message from the sky.
03:23 What?
03:23 That there would be a rain.
03:24 What?
03:25 And the waters would be high.
03:26 He called his sons together.
03:28 And this is what he said.
03:29 Now, Shem and Ham and Japheth, no more sleeping late in bed.
03:32 You see, I got some special orders.
03:35 You gotta help me build an ark.
03:36 What's an ark?
03:37 Some kind of boat, I reckon.
03:39 Build, build, build, build an ark.
03:41 How you build one?
03:42 Build, build, build, build an ark.
03:44 What's it for, Pap?
03:45 Night and day, no time to play.
03:48 We got to build an ark.
03:50 How soon?
03:52 Seven days to make it.
03:53 We gotta shake it.
03:55 You gotta help me build an ark.
03:57 Let's get moving.
03:58 The boys went in the forest.
03:59 What?
04:00 To cut some gopher wood.
04:01 What?
04:01 A mess of trees were chopped in that busy neighborhood.
04:04 The skies were growing darker, and time began to fly.
04:08 Before they had their luck for pile,
04:09 three days and nights went by, and Noah
04:11 called out to his children.
04:13 We got to rush and build that ark.
04:15 Looks like rain.
04:16 We're gonna need some shelter.
04:17 Rush, rush, rush, build that ark.
04:19 Can't think of what's wide.
04:21 Rush, rush, rush, build that ark.
04:23 Length, 300.
04:24 Night and day, no time to play.
04:27 We got to rush that ark.
04:29 I need a vacation.
04:30 Four more days to do it.
04:32 Let's hop right to it.
04:33 You gotta hurry with that ark.
04:36 [sawing]
04:38 [drilling]
04:40 [music playing]
04:43 [horn honking]
04:44 [music playing]
04:46 [train rumbling]
05:03 [music playing]
05:05 [thud]
05:23 [grunt]
05:24 [crack]
05:25 [music playing]
05:27 [train horn honking]
05:28 [crash]
05:29 [music playing]
05:31 [train horn honking]
05:33 [crash]
05:34 [music playing]
05:36 [yelp]
05:43 Boys, we made the deadline.
05:45 And now we've got to name this ark.
05:47 Let's see, uh, how about Shams Ark?
05:49 Hmm, Hams Ark?
05:51 Jafas Ark?
05:52 Boys, I think I've got it.
05:54 Why don't we call it Noah's Ark?
05:56 Oh, yeah!
05:58 I guess we'll call it Noah's Ark.
06:01 [music playing]
06:03 That's good.
06:05 I like it.
06:06 That's very good.
06:07 That's nice.
06:09 [sigh]
06:10 Exhausted from their job well done,
06:12 it truly was a handsome one.
06:14 The boys lay down to take a snooze when Noah cried,
06:17 "No time to lose.
06:19 We've one more duty to perform.
06:22 This final day before the storm,
06:25 into the ark we have to bring just two of every living thing.
06:31 Go north, go south, go west and east.
06:35 Find two of every bird and beast.
06:38 Invite each pair to be our guest.
06:41 Accomplish this, and then we'll rest."
06:44 The boys went out upon these words,
06:47 "Among the animals and the birds,"
06:49 and promised them admission free,
06:51 the first boat ride in history.
06:54 [singing]

07:20 [music playing]
07:24 And soon a crowd began to pour across the gangplank through the door.
07:28 This was the season's big affair,
07:31 and all the finest folks were there.
07:34 [singing]

07:51 The ducks and geese and the pelicans flew to the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's ark.
08:00 The penguins dressed in formal style, flamingos wore their pink.
08:07 The camels came in camel pile, the minks in natural mink.
08:14 Then the hoop and grains gave a holler and a whoop, so pleased that they were part of the group on the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's ark.
08:25 Noah carefully checked each guest on his list to make sure not a single one would be missed.
08:31 Well, some of those guests were odd looking critters.
08:35 The way they were built would give you the jitters.
08:38 There were duck-billed platypus half and halves.
08:42 Silly hyenas with sillier laughs.
08:45 Earth-bound emus, hopscotch and kangaroos, and the great galloping canoes came in twos.
08:54 Well, the chimps and monks and gorillas walked in to say hello and how you been on the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's ark.
09:08 The ostrich pair, they were strutting so proud, and how their feathers tickled the crowd on the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's ark.
09:19 The civet cats were seated near the horrified giraffes.
09:28 The porcupines made their point clear.
09:32 They'd stick around for the laugh.
09:34 Then the lightning flashed and the folks were all thrilled.
09:38 They knew the ocean soon would be filled for the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's ark.
09:46 The yaks and zebras were last aboard the ark, and just in time for the sky was getting dark.
09:54 Then Hamsham and Japheth looked terribly hurt.
09:57 They hung their heads and kicked their toes in the dirt.
10:01 But they were all smiles and really delighted to learn they and their wives too were invited.
10:07 And Mrs. Noah, whose task it was to pack a picnic basket, had prepared some simple vittles to fill up their empty middles.
10:20 The old gal had potato salad, macaroni, bologna, pastrami, salami, baked ham, berry jam, marmalade, lemonade, peach pie.
10:27 Oh my.
10:29 [thunder]
10:40 My, my. This was no ordinary cloudburst.
10:44 Of all known storms, this was the worst.
10:47 Oh, it rained every day, it rained every night, but the old gopher wood ark was weathertight.
10:54 How it did rock and roll once it left the land.
10:59 [thunder]
11:09 Inside, Noah had a problem on his hand.
11:13 Everyone was sick, sick, sick, sick of the rain.
11:17 And bored with the food, they began to complain.
11:21 [crying]
11:26 Some even said, "We've been in some boring places, but here day after day, the same old tired faces."
11:34 What with all the terrible snarling and growling and pushing and shoving and hissing and howling,
11:40 poor old Noah's mood was one of complete despair.
11:44 He chewed off his nails and almost tore out his hair.
11:49 Noah, Sham, Ham, and Japheth faced a difficult job.
11:53 How in the world would they ever pacify this mob?
11:56 Just how could they make them forget all this congestion?
11:59 To try to reason with them was out of the question.
12:02 Then Mrs. Noah calmly said,
12:05 "Music has charms to soothe the savage beast."
12:10 Noah thought and scratched his head.
12:13 Well, why not? It's worth a try to say the least.
12:17 Quickly, Sham, Ham, and Japheth dug down in a trunk and came up with what looked like a lot of old junk.
12:22 Uh-oh, then a negative thought popped into Noah's head.
12:26 Suppose the music irritated them instead.
12:29 Suppose that wild, crazy bunch were stampeded.
12:32 Holy cow, that would be all that he needed.
12:38 But then, when he heard how those sons of his played,
12:42 his doubts disappeared. He knew they had it made.
12:47 [music]
12:52 Each bird and each beast with a smile on his face turned to his mate
12:56 and with the utmost of grace offered her his arm.
12:59 I should say paw, or wing.
13:02 Noah was so happy he began to sing.

13:49 In one corner of this happy room sat Mrs. Hippo, filled with gloom.
13:54 Though Harry Hippo was having the time of his life, not so his wife.
13:59 She was having a jealous fit while old Harry danced and made a hit
14:03 with all the females in the place. What a disgrace.
14:07 So she was caught completely off guard when Noah said,
14:10 "Harry's such a card. He must be fun around the house.
14:14 You're lucky to have such a spouse."
14:17 "Please, that will suffice. Mr. Noah, let me give you some advice.

16:40 Now, my dear, that's no way to act. Everyone knows for an absolute fact,
16:46 when he's dancing with someone else in his arms, he's only dwelling on your charm.
16:52 So round, so firm, so graceful.
16:56 Who, me?
16:57 When you see him whisper in someone else's ear, he's raving about you, my dear.
17:03 How beautiful, how ravishing.
17:07 Who, me?
17:08 And when he smiles at someone new, he's thinking no one can compare to you.
17:14 It was love at first sight.
17:16 Who, me?
17:17 Yes, your Harry is true to you.
17:20 And I have no cause to be blue.
17:23 Where have you been hiding all my life?
17:26 Oh, Harry, say the cutest thing.
17:30 Who, me?

17:46 [thunder]
17:49 It rained and rained and rained.
17:53 And it rained some more.
17:55 Then it really began to pour. I mean pour.
17:59 [thunder]
18:02 Forty days and forty nights in all, there never was such a squall.
18:06 The wind whistled and howled and blew and the tempest grew and grew and grew.
18:12 From wave to wave, the ark was tossed and hurled.
18:16 This tiny boat with the entire population of the world.
18:19 [thunder]
18:21 Then, just as quickly as the storm had started, the downpour stopped.
18:27 The big black clouds departed.
18:30 Old Noah sent forth a dove into the air.
18:34 [dove chirping]
18:44 Returned with olive branch, forecast, weather fair.
18:48 Noah ran quickly downstairs with what he'd heard.
18:50 This was gospel truth. He got it from the bird.
18:53 The rains had stopped. The skies were bright and clear.
18:56 Their trip was over. They were here.
18:59 But where was here?
19:01 No one seemed to know or even seemed to care.
19:04 The important thing was that they were there.
19:07 [music]
19:10 Then they finally saw just where they were at.
19:13 Beached high and dry on good old Mount Ararat.
19:16 [music]
19:19 Then everyone hugged and kissed and hugged their wives.
19:24 This was a trip they'd remember all their lives.
19:28 [music]
19:30 Now they waved goodbye and began to descend.
19:33 Yes, all ashore, 'cause this was the end
19:36 of the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's Ark.
19:41 [music]
19:43 They headed home with their little ones now.
19:47 The families all grew larger somehow
19:50 on the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's Ark.
19:54 [music]
19:57 They all went off in little vans to Asia or Peru,
20:03 to Africa and other lands where life was starting anew.
20:10 Now they all could brag every place that they'd go.
20:13 Our family came over, you know,
20:16 on the maiden cruise of the good ship Noah's Ark.
20:21 [music]
20:24 So ends the tale of the world's first boat
20:27 and of the history it wrote
20:29 and of the man who proved his worth
20:32 back in the earliest times of Earth.
