Some songs were re-recorded for this version, such as "Get Ready To Wiggle" and "Dorothy the Dinosaur".

Murray: This is the story of a man who lived a long, long time ago and his name was "Uncle Noah". Now, Uncle Noah has to save some animals from a flood, so he built a really, really big boat. And he called that big boat, "Uncle Noah's Ark". There were some ducks on the ark, and the ducks went, "quack!" Could you do that with us? The ducks went, "quack!" The cows went, "moo!" Now, Uncle Noah has a rooster on the ark, and the rooster went, "cock-a-doodle-doo!" There were some cats on the ark, and the cats made a terrible row. They went, "meow!" There was a pig on the ark, and the little pig went... (He snorts.) How did that little pig go? It went... (He snorts.) There were some goats on the ark, and the goats shook their heads... (He shake his head.) ..and they went, "maa! Maa!" Now, let me see. What else was there on the ark? (Greg flopped his ears to make a donkey's ears.) Some donkeys! Let's see some long ears, donkeys. And the donkeys went, "hee-haw! Hee-haw!" Gee, it was noisy on the ark, but it was lots of fun too. So, why don't you come on board Uncle Noah's Ark with us?!
Greg: (singing) A long long time ago
As all you folks should know
Uncle Noah built himself an ark
Uncle Noah: Now, that's a boat folks!
Greg: (singing) For 40 days and nights
The rain was quite a fright
The animals nearly tore the ark apart
The ducks went quack
The cows went...
Moo!
The roosters
Cock-a-doodle-doo!
The old tom cat sure raised an awful row
Meow!
The little pig oink
Oink!
The billy goats
Baa!
The bullfrog said
Anthony: (singing) "Biggest rain we've ever had".
Greg: (singing) Uncle Noah's ark is a mad house now
(They're making animal noises.)

(A scene transitions to these are in their pony costumes & farmer brown. While, The Wiggles are playing their instruments.)

She's green She's got yellow spots. She wears a white floppy hat. But best of all, Dorothy the Dinosaur loves to eat roses. Dorothy also loves to sing this. She sings... "Romp Bomp a Chomp.

Dorothy: (She giggles.)

I'd have to find a place where I could hide her away

Or wiggle if you'd rather
Whenever I hear this music
Whenever I hear this song,
I just can't stop dancing
And you can dance along

I don't need it right now, because there's something else I'd like to show everyone. It's my favourite colouring-in book with lots and lots of great pictures inside. Just take a look at these. Have a look at the pictures and tell me what you think. (He opens a book has blank pictures on it.) They're great, aren't they? What's that? There's no pictures? Of course, there's pictures. It's a colouring-in book. There must be pictures there. Take another look. We'll have a look together this time. Have a look and see. (He opens a book has blank pictures on it. Then, he was so shocked.) You're right! There's no pictures! I don't believe this. There's supposed to be pictures there. Oh, dear. I was wondering, would you all help me do some magic to put some pictures inside the colouring book? I need everybody's help for this to work. Will you help me? You will? Thank you very much. That's wonderful! (He is using imaginary pencil to draw it in the air.) Now, what I need everyone to do is get out their magic pencil from their pocket and draw some pictures in the air for me. Just draw anything at all, it's doesn't matter, just draw it in the air. Now, throw it at the colouring book. Let's put the pictures inside the book. That's the way! Now, take a look and see. (He opens a book that has some pictures on it.) Are there some pictures there now? There are? Wow! Hey, that's great, everyone! Well done! Now, we've got some pictures inside the colouring book. Let's see if we can put some colour inside the book. (He is using imaginary crayon to rub it back & forth in his shirt.) What I need everyone to do is rub some colour from their clothes. There's lost of great colours out there. So just rub the colour from your clothes and throw it at the colouring book. Let's put the colour inside the pictures! That's the way. Now, let's take a look and see. (He opens a book that has some pictures on it. But, no colour on each pages on a book.) Is there some colour there now? What? There's no colour? (He was so shocked that there's no colour at each page on a book.) Oh, no! I thought that would work. Rubbing colour and... I know what I forgot to do. (He pulls a magic wand out of his pocket.) I forgot to use my magic wand. How silly! Let's try it one more time, everyone. (He is using imaginary crayon to rub it back & forth in his shirt. Then, he is waving his magic wand around to a colouring book.) Rub the colour form your clothes. This time, I'll wave the magic wand and we'll all say the magic word, which is, "abracadabra", and we'll see if we can put some colour inside the pictures. On three, let's all say, "abracadabra". 1, 2, 3! Abracadabra! (He put his wand into his pocket.) Now, let's have a look and see. (He opens a book that has some pictures on it. But, it has some colours on each pages on a book.) Is there some colour inside the pictures now? There is? Wow! Well done, everyone. That's fantastic magic. Give yourselves a really big clap.

(It transitions to a scene where Greg is singing, while the others are playing their instruments.)
Greg: (singing) I love it when it rains
And I lie in bed at night
I listen to it patter
On the roof soft and light
But then a storm may come
And the thunder starts to crash
The rain beats on the window
And I see the lightning flash
(Instrumental break to & the girls are holding their teddy bears & dancing the ballet.)
Greg: (singing) I hold on teddy tight
And sink down in my bed
I close my eyes so tight
And pull the covers over my head
I feel so snug and warm
I know that everything's alright
I love when it rains
As I lie in bed at night
(Instrumental break to the ending part. Until, it transitions to a bouncing ball at the title of the song: Quack Quack appears on the screen.)

Anthony: Ooh, Captain! Are you alright?
Captain Feathersword: Oh, yes, I'm fine. Just a little bump on the head, Anthony. (He gets up.)
Anthony: Captain, how do you feel?
Captain Feathersword: Well, I feel a bit quackers after that, Anthony. Quack, quack, quack.
Anthony: (He gives his feathersword to Captain.) Oh, did you just say, "Quack, quack, quack"?
Captain Feathersword: Oh, yes, indeed. Quack, quack, quack.
Anthony: We can all say that. You ready, everybody? (with Greg.) Quack, quack, quack.
Captain Feathersword: Wow, that's great! How about, um, ooh, cock-a-doodle-doo!

But only one little duck came back
One little duck went out one day
Over the hills and far away
Father duck said quack, quack, quack, quack
But none of the five little ducks came back
Oh, dear. That made father duck really sad.
Captain Feathersword: (He's sobbing, because he's very sad about little duckies being gone.)
Murray: That's Captain Feathersword.
Captain Feathersword: (In a very sad high pitched voice, while sobbing.) Oh, All of the five little duckies are gone, Murray!
Murray: Oh, Captain.
Captain Feathersword: (He's sobbing.) Oh, boo-hoo...
Murray: (He is comforting him grabbing a red bucket & a hanky.) Oh, he's very sad.
Captain Feathersword: Oh, very sad!
Murray: Don't cry, Captain. Here's a handkerchief.

Captain Feathersword: (He is laughing over that funny part where all of the little duckies are coming back now.)
Murray: Cheer up, Captain. I think he is cheered up. He's cheered up already. Hey, Captain, guess what?
Captain Feathersword: (He chuckles.) What, Murray?
Murray: There's a happy ending. Did you know that?
Captain Feathersword: Oh, wow!
