Kevin chamberlin - Horton Sits On the Egg / Act I Finale lyrics

[Bird Girls] Then carefully, tenderly, Gently he crept Up the trunk to the nest Where the little egg slept Then Horton the elephant smiled: [Horton] Now that's that [Bird Girls] And he sat and he sat And he sat and he sat He sat all that day And he kept the egg warm And sat all that night Through a terrible storm Ooh...Ahh! [Horton] I can't leave this nest No, I meant what I said This egg might get frozen But the Whos might be dead I couldn't say no When I heard Mayzie beg Now I'm caught between a dust speck And an incubating egg Oh no! Hunters! Someone help me! [Gertrude] Horton! ... Horton! [Horton] Hunters, someone help! When your life's going wrong And you're wondering why [Gertrude] When your tail is so long You're unable to fly [Horton, Gertrude, & Cat] Tell yourself how lucky you are. Why decry a cloudy sky An empty purse, a crazy universe My philosophy is simply: Things could be worse [All] So be happy you're here Think of life as a thrill And if worse comes to worse As we all know it will, Thank your lucky star You've gotten this far... [All] Tell yourself How lucky you are, how lucky! How lucky! how lucky you... How lucky you are, how lucky! How lucky! how lucky you... How lucky you are, how lucky! How lucky! how lucky! How lucky! how lucky! How lucky you are! How lucky you are!
