GERTRUDE I had a little trouble 'Cause I grew a little tail. Well, it wasn't really little. It was absolutely giant! And it really was attractive But you never even noticed, So I felt a little silly even trying Besides which the tail was too heavy For normal flying.
HORTON Go on.
GERTRUDE Well, when the hunters caught you I could see that I'd been foolish 'Cause I couldn't even help you No, I couldn't even fly. And I got so very frightened 'Cause I knew I had to save you. No one else was gonna go to all the labor. It was all up to me, All you had was your next door neighbor.
GERTRUDE So I ran to the doctor.
CAT AS DR. DAKE The doctor named Dake. And she said.-
GERTRUDE My tail has been a mistake!
CAT AS DR. DAKE And she said:
GERTRUDE Dr. Dake, I've been foolish and vain.
Pluck it out! Get it off! I won't do it again!
CAT AS DR. DAKE Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!
GERTRUDE Ouch, it hurt a lot!
CAT AS DR. DAKE Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!
GERTRUDE Ooh, a tender spot
CAT AS DR. DAKE Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!
GERTRUDE Just a one feather tail...
DR. DAKE, GERTRUDE & BIRD GIRLS But suddenly, Gertrude could sail!
GERTRUDE (dramatically) I sailed on a junk And was practically sunk For you. I trampled thorough the trees Full of furious bees For you. I slogged through a fog And a choking smog Down a soggy slope Through a stinking bog While my slip was gripped By a vicious dog For you.
GERTRUDE BIRD GIRLS I galloped through the snow ooh... In eleven below For you. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Yes, even though I knew ooh... I was catching the flu For you (Achoo! ) (achoo! ) And then came the hole ooh Where I caught my sole ooh And I rolled downhill ooh Out of all control ooh 'Till I broke my fall On a jagged shoal For you! Ooh, ooh, ooh, ahh! All for you All for you All for you All for you There's nothing that I Wouldn't And I couldn't And I haven't gone through... Ahh, aah, aah, aah!
(With tremendous conviction and grit! )
I sprained my little toe, but la-la-la-la-la! I hobbled like so la-la-la-la! For you. La-la-la-la-la-la-la! Ooh... Ooh... Ooh Then came the hit and run la-la-la-la-la!
But I staggered on one la-la-la-la! For you. La-la-la-la-la-la-la! Now, here I am, ahh-ah! The worse for wear And here you are ahh-ah! I'm here! You're there! And maybe now ah! You'll know I care ahh-ah! For you! Ooh! Ooh...
GERTRUDE Oh, yes. And Horton, one more thing...
It took me seven weeks... But I found your clover, Too!
