Bilingual
: And the baker gave Jack five beans in exchange for his cow, keeping one for himself.: I guess this is goodbye old pal
You've been a perfect friend
I hate to see us part, old pal
Someday I'll buy you back
I'll see you soon again
I hope that when I do
It won't be on a plate: Magic beans!: No one would have given him more for this creature
B: Are we to dispel this curse through deceit?
BW: If you know what you want then you go and you find it and you get it -
B: Home
BW: Do we want a child or not?
And you give and you take and you bid and you bargain or you live to regret it
B: Will you please go home?
BW: There are rights and inbetweens, no one waits when fortune intervenes
And maybe they're really magic, who knows?
Why you do what you do, that's the point, all the rest of it is chatter
B: Look at her, she's crying!
BW: If the thing you do is pure in intent, if it's meant and it's just a little bent, does it matter?
B: Yes
BW: No, what matters is that everyone tells tiny lies, what's important really is the size
Only three more tries and we'll have our prize, when the end's in sight you'll realize
If the end is right, it justifies the beans!
