All For You Lyrics by Stephen Flaherty & Lynn Ahrens

Seussical The Musical Jr.

0

[GERTRUDE McFUZZ] (singing)
(dramatically)
I SAILED ON A JUNK
AND WAS PRACTIC'LLY SUNK
FOR YOU.
I TRAMPLED THROUGH 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 #1, 2, & 3 (O.S.))]
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 (AHH-AH)
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!)
(LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA!)
FOR YOU (OOH...)!
NOW, HERE I AM (AHH-AH!),
THE WORSE FOR WEAR,
AND HERE YOU ARE (AHH-AH!).
I'M HERE!
YOU'RE THERE (AH!)!
AND MAYBE NOW (AHH-AH!)
YOU'LL KNOW I CARE (OOH!)
FOR YOU (OOH...)!
[GERTRUDE] (spoken)
Oh, yes. And Horton, one more thing...
[GERTRUDE] (singing)
IT TOOK ME SEVEN WEEKS...
BUT I FOUND YOUR CLOVER,
TOO!
(HORTON eagerly takes the clover from GERTRUDE.)
[HORTON THE ELEPHANT, CAT IN THE HAT (as DOCTOR DAKE), & BIRD GIRLS]
WHO!
[HORTON] (spoken)
Gertrude...I never noticed... you're...Amazing!
[GERTRUDE]
Aw, it was nothing.
[HORTON]
Hello, Whos, hello! Is anyone there?
(HE holds the clover to his ear and gets an answer as MAYOR, & MRS. MAYOR appear.)
[MAYOR, & MRS. MAYOR]
Hello!!
[HORTON]
Oh, what a relief! Why, hello, Mr. Mayor! Is JoJo all right?
(He listens again.)
[JOJO]
Hi, Horton!
[HORTON]
Oh, JoJo! Hello!
Kid, now that I've got you, I won't let you go!
I’ll shelter and guard you, because aftеr all,
[HORTON] (singing)
A PERSON’S A PERSON
NO MATTER HOW SMALL!
[MAYOR, MRS. MAYOR, JOJO, HORTON, & GERTRUDE]
A PERSON'S A PERSON
NO MATTER HOW...
(The WICKERSHAM BROTHERS and the SOUR KANGAROO/ YOUNG KANGAROO appear.)
[WICKERSHAM BROTHER #1] (spokеn)
Ha!
[WICKERSHAM BROTHERS #2, & 3]
Ha!
[SOUR KANGAROO]
Humph!
[GERTRUDE]
How did you get here?!
[SOUR KANGAROO] (singing)
YOU CAN’T RUN AWAY FROM A SOUR KANGAROO!
PALM BEACH TO PITTSBURGH TO KALAMAZOO.
AND YOU—WITH YOUR EGG AND YOUR TREE AND YOUR NEST!
I'M MAKING A SOUR CITIZEN'S ARREST!
[HORTON] (spoken)
Wait! Stop! Where are you taking me?
[SOUR KANGAROO, & WICKERSHAMS]
Well Horton, we're taking you back.
You’re gonna be goin' in style.
For talkin' to a speck
And sittin' on an egg
[WICKERSHAM #3] (singing)
YOU'RE GONNA BE...
[WICKERSHAM #2]
GONNA BE...
[WICKERSHAM #1]
GONNA BE...
[SOUR KANGAROO]
GONNA BE...
[SOUR KANGAROO, & WICKERSHAMS]
GONNA BE PUT...
[SOUR KANGAROO, & WICKERSHAMS] (spoken)
On trial!
(Segue to a courtroom in the Jungle of Nool. The CITIZENS OF THE JUNGLE will serve as the Jury. The CAT plays the court's MARSHAL.)
