How Lucky You Are (Fourth Reprise) Lyrics by Stephen Flaherty & Lynn Ahrens

Seussical The Musical Jr.

0

[MAYZIE LaBIRD] (singing)
WHEN YOU'RE DOWN IN PALM BEACH
WITH THE BREEZE IN YOUR HAIR
AND YOU DON'T HAVE AN EGG
OR A NEST OR A CARE,
TELL YOURSELF HOW LUCKY YOU ARE.
[CAT IN THE HAT (as JOSÉ THE POOLBOY)]
HOW LUCKY, HOW LUCKY YOU ARE
[MAYZIE]
WHEN IT'S DAY AFTER DAY
AFTER BEAUTIFUL DAY
TO BE LAZING AWAY
BY THE SEA WITH JOSÉ,
TELL YOURSELF HOW LUCKY YOU ARE.
[CAT (as JOSÉ THE POOLBOY)]
HOW LUCKY YOU ARE!
[MAYZIE]
STILL, I'M BORED AND I'M CRANKY AND TIRED
SITTING DAY AFTER DAY.
WHO KNEW SO MUCH WORK WAS REQUIRED
FOR NOTHING BUT PLAY.
I NEED SOMETHING DIFFERENT!
I CRAVE SOMETHING NEW!
(She grabs the CAT.)
HEY, MAYBE COULD YOU THINK OF
SOMETHING DIFF'RENT TO DO?!
(In self-defense, he hands her a flyer.)
[MAYZIE] (spoken)
A circus!
I love a show!
I think I'll go!
(MAYZIE exits as the Circus enters. SHE re-enters with souvenirs and cotton candy. We see the CIRCUS ANIMALS, now in their cages. Suddenly, she is face-to-face with HORTON.)
[MAYZIE]
Good gracious! I've seen you before. Now, let's see...
[HORTON THE ELEPHANT]
Why, Mayzie, it's Horton! Remember? It's me!
I've sat on your egg now for fifty-one weeks!
I've sat here while people have paid to take peeks!
I've sat here through lightning and hailstorms and snow!
Won't you take back your egg?
[MAYZIE]
Gee. I really don't know...
