Author: Once upon a time there were three little pigs: baby pig, big pig, and old pig. They lived in Pig City, West Virginia.
Baby Pig: "Yeah!" I'm baby pig. I'm going to build my house out of straw.
Big Pig: "Yeah!" I'm the fat pig and I'm smarter than baby pig. I'm going to build my house out of sticks.
Old Pig: "Bah!" I'm old pig and I'm grumpy. Baby pig and big pig are crazy. They want to build a house out of straw and sticks. "Bah!" I'm going you build my house out of bricks.
Narrator: All of the pigs built their houses. Baby pig built his out of straw. Big pig built his out of sticks. Old pig built his out of bricks.
Author: Let me introduce the worst character of this story. He's from Pig City, West Virginia and he weighs in at a whopping 567 pounds! Everyone give a big welcome for the Big Bad Salamander!
(Big Bad Salamander Enters)
(Everyone Starts Clapping and Yelling)Big Bad Salamander: "Heeeeeey There!" I'm the big bad Salamander. Are you scared? Well you should be because I'm big and mean and nasty. I'm going to destroy baby pig, big pig, and old pig's houses, take all their money, and then eat them!
(Everyone: "Oh NO!")
Author: So the big bad salamander strolled over to baby pig's house.
Big Bad Salamander: "Little Pig, Little Pig, Let me in!
(Everyone: "Oh NO!")
Baby Pig: Not by the hairs of my baby chinny chin chin!
Narrator: So the big bad salamander huffed and he puffed and he blew baby pigs house of straw down, took all of his money, and ate him.
Baby Pig: "Help!"
Scientist: Hey! Wait just a gosh-darn minute here! This whole story doesn't make sense.
Scientist: It's all wrong! There isn't supposed to be a big bad salamander. There is supposed to be a big bad pig!
Big Bad Salamander: Shush! I'm going to eat you!
(The Big Bad Salamander chases the scientist away off the stage like he is trying to eat him.)
Author: Anyway, next the big bad salamander visited big pig in his house of sticks.
Big Bad Salamander: Knock Knock!
Big Pig: Who's there?
Big Bad Salamander: Spongebob Square Pants.
Big Pig: Awesome, I love Spongebob!
Narrator: So big pig, with tiny brains, opened the door and the big bad salamander took all of his money and tore down his house. Oh yeah, then ate big pig.
Big Bad Salamander: MMMMMMM. . .. . .tastes like chicken.
Author: Next, the big bad salamander went to see old pig in his house of bricks.
Big Bad Salamander: Old Pig, Old Pig, Let me in!
Old Pig: Not by the gray hairs of my old chinny chin chin!
Big Bad Salamander: Fine. Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down.
Scientist: Now the big bad salamander huffed and he puffed until he was blue in the face. But little did he know that Old Pig and I were setting him up for a trap. . .. . .. . .
