Lynn Ahrens - Chasing The Whos lyrics

[HORTON] Hey! Give that back! STOP! [SOUR KANGAROO] Up out of the jungle Up into the sky Up over the mountains [SOUR KANGAROO & BIRD GIRLS] Ten thousand feet high. [SOUR KANGAROO] Then down from the mountains [SOUR KANGAROO & BIRD GIRLS] And into the news- [ALL] Went Horton the Elephant Chasing the Whos! [WOMEN] Chasing the Whos! [MEN] Chasing the Whos! [CAT] This is the Cat in the Hat Live from Skycam Five. Folks, the Jungle of Nool Is one heck of a drive. We've got monkeys backed up To the three-oh-two I'd find alternate routes If I were you! [WICKERSHAMS, SOUR KANGAROO & BIRD GIRLS] Then over the desert, The Desert of Dreze! And into the forest With thousands of trees Past Sneetches on beaches [SOUR KANGAROO] And sour kangaroos! [ALL (except Horton & "Vocally low" men)] Went Horton the elephant Chasing the Whos Chasing the Whos! Chasing the... Chasing the Whos! Chasing the Whos! [WICKERSHAM #1] Still chasing your dust? Why it's safe as can be. [WICKERSHAM #2] We're monkeys to trust Or don't you agree? [WICKERSHAM #3] Well, just to be sure We are handing it off [WICKERSHAMS] To a black-bottomed eagle named-- [VLAD VLADIKOFF] Vlad Vladikoff! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! [HORTON] Please! Wait!! [BIRD GIRLS] All that late afternoon And far into the night That black-bottomed bird Flapped his wings in fast flight And he paid no attention To Horton's loud call: [HORTON] A person's a person No matter how small! [WHOS] OOOH... AAAHHH! We're Whos here! We're all Whos here! Please don't let us fall! Aaah! We're Whos here. We could bruise here! Helpless, weak and small. [CITIZENS OF THE JUNGLE, WHOS] On Horton traveled And on that bird flew. And, oh, there was trouble, [WHOS] Trouble on Who! [ALL] That black-bottomed eagle was cruel as could be... [HORTON] 'Cause at six fifty-six, Vlad Vladikoff dropped it The clover went tumbling and nobody stopped it And head over heels, one hundred miles down, Fell the poor little Whos and their whole tiny town! [WHOS] Aaah!
