And then we had to call the fire department to save Saint Nicholas...
Every year Saint Nicholas comes to visit us at school with his Zwarte Pieten. And every year it's watching out how he comes. For some reason, the horse is always prevented. It should rest before the night draft or it hurt his leg.
But the saint saves money: we sing, he comes... With a carriage or in the sidecar of a motorcycle, an army jeep...
That time we had drawn a big H on the playground, because he would come by helicopter!
We made a big circle around the H and started singing loudly. There was also a helicopter flying over (who did not participate in the scenario, but only insiders knew that), so we sang louder, because it flew by.
Then the warden got a phone call from Zwarte Piet. The helicopter had dropped Saint Nicholas and some Zwarte Pieten on the roof of the kindergarten, a little further down the street. But without the horse, they couldn't get off. If we could fix that...
