This is an altered English version of a German tongue-twister story called RhabarberBarbara (or Rhubarb Barbara), with a couple of my own additions that would not work in German.




Rhubarb Bar Barbara

A tongue-twisting tale

Once upon a time, in a small village, there lived a lady named Barbara who loved to make chocolate bars.

Everyone in the village loved Barbara’s chocolate bars, but the most loved of all was her delicious rhubarb bar.

Since everyone loved Barbara’s rhubarb bar so much, the villagers came to call her Rhubarb Bar Barbara.

Rhubarb Bar Barbara soon realised that she could sell her rhubarb bars to make some money, so she opened a bar and called it Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar.

Stories of Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s rhubarb bars spread far and wide, and Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar soon filled with customers, many of whom came back, time and again.

Her most regular customers were a group of three barbarians, who came every day to Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar to eat Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s magnificent rhubarb bars.

They were there so often that the villagers started to call them the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians.

Each Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar barbarian had a beautiful, thick beard, and they called them their Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar barbarian’s beards.

When the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians needed their Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beards cut they went to the barber.

There was only one barber in the village who could cut a Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarian’s beard, so the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians knew him as the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber.

While he trimmed their beards, the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians told the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber all about Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar, Rhubarb Bar Barbara, and her wonderful rhubarb bars.

The thought of Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s rhubarb bars, made the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber very thirsty for a special kind of beer, which he laughingly called the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber's beer.

The Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber's beer could only be bought at one bar in the area, The Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar Barbarians' Beard-Barber's Beer-Bar.

The barmaid who served the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber's beer at the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar Barbarians' Beard-Barber's Beer-Bar, was named Barbie, so everyone called her Barbie the barmaid from the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar Barbarians' Beard-Barber's Beer-Bar.

After the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber had finished cutting the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beards, the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians took him with them to the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar Barbarians' Beard-Barber's Beer-Bar, to collect Barbie the barmaid from the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar Barbarians' Beard-Barber's Beer-Bar.

Then, they all went to Rhubarb Bar Barbara's Rhubarb Bar Bar, so that the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber and Barbie the barmaid from the Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar Barbarians' Beard-Barber's Beer-Bar could finally meet Rhubarb Bar Barbara and eat some of her wonderful rhubarb bars with a nice, refreshing glass of Rhubarb Bar Barbara’s Rhubarb Bar Bar barbarians' beard-barber's beer.

Cheers!
