Summary
A retelling of a classic story, Bremen Town Musicians. There was a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster who had reached their time of life where they were not needed. So they got together and headed to town to become musicians. On their way they found a house to sleep in but had to get rid of the people inside first. They were successful and spent the rest of their days happy.

| 2:43.7 | I will tell you what, said the donkey. I am going to Bremen to become a town musician. |
| 2:50.7 | I am going to Bremen to become a town musician. You may as well go with me and take up music |
