in an empty, crisp packet.

air vents.
Welcome to the whirly.

Up into the sky shot the familycar.
Trailing bubbles like fizzylemonade outta the windows.

A sign, floated nearby, sayingSudsy skyland.

softly on foamy bubbles.

How buzzled, the tallest spongewho wore a bubbly crown.

They all cried.
Moonlight.
Tried to fly up, but bashed intoa drifting towel.
Don't worry, I'll fix it.

(04:50):
Ooh, maybe not yet.
Alice looked around calmly.
We need something small to pokethe sparkle nozzle.
Freddy, do you still have thatstraw from lunch?
Freddie proudly pulled it out ofhis pocket.
It was slightly chewed, butstill good.

(05:11):
Alice took it gently, tooked itinside the sparkle pipe with
moonies wand, and gave it awiggle.
Zap, splosh fizz.
The leaking stopped.
Then the machine burst out Arainbow ribbon that flushed
across the sky, the spongecreatures cheered.

(05:32):
Sir Sulo placed a bubbly crownon Alice's head.
You are now princess of thesparkly swirls.
Freddie got a golden sponge ofhonor and tried to eat it.
Eh, this tastes like soap.

(05:52):
Well, this is relaxing.
I could get used to this.
Suddenly out of nowhere appeareda baby sheep bleeping softly.
It licked Freddy's cheek, and henoticed that it smelled like
conditioner.

Beep beep.
The car gave a cheery hunkreturn trip begins in five four.

bubble tunnel, spinning gentlyinto the normal car wash bay.

The brushes did one last spin.
Mom turned around like nothinghad happened.

Just a normal wash.
