Havin’ a Hunch Annotated

[SCARY VOICES, Offstage]
Ooh-wah-ooh-wah!
Ooh-wah-ooh-wah!

[CAT]
Have you ever had a hunch
You should follow your nose
Then you have a sudden hunch
You should follow your toes
Soon a sneaky hunch is whispering
Better go straight
And before you know it
Oh, it's so late late late late

[SCARY VOICES, Echoing]
Late late late late

[CAT]
Now a nervous hunch is telling you
You could be lost

[SCARY VOICES, Echoing]
Lost lost lost lost...

[CAT]
As it leads you down a path
You have already crossed

[SCARY VOICES, Echoing]
Crossed, crossed, crossed, crossed

[CAT]
And you have a nasty feeling
That you should've had your lunch
And you know you're havin' a hunch

[HUNCHES]
You're havin', you're havin' a hunch
You're havin' a hunch

[CAT]
A hunch

[HUNCHES]
You're havin', you're havin' a hunch
You're havin' a hunch

[CAT]
You're uncertain and confused and you're scared, oh yes
And you're wondering how your thinks got you in this mess
And there's nobody to blame but you, oh the whole thing stinks

[CAT & JOJO]
And then you think

[JOJO]
I'm a thinker, and I think thinks

[CAT]
Only you can find the way, oh you just can't stop

[JOJO]
I will think and think until I drop

[HUNCHES & CAT]
Hunch!
Your journey's just begun and so on you go
To the left, to the right, oh you just don't know
Now you have a sudden hunch
You're alone in the world
You're alone with fates and hunches all colored and curled

[CAT]
So you're overwhelmed by hunches
That disturb and pinch and punch

[HUNCHES & CAT]
And you know you're having a hunch

[HUNCHES]
You're havin', you're havin' a hunch!
You're havin' a hunch!
And oh
The places you'll go

[JOJO]
I've got brains in my head
And feet in my shoes

[ALL (EXCEPT JOJO)]
So steer yourself any direction you choose!

And oh, the places you'll go!
You're on your own, you know what you know
Don't worry about how fast or how slow
Be certain you step with caution and tet
Cause life is a great big balancing act
And will you succeed, you will, yes indeed

[JOJO]
Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent
Guaranteed

[HUNCHES & CAT]
Set your hunches free to wander
And follow them where they roam

And follow your hunch
Follow your hunch
Follow it
Follow your hunch
Follow your hunch
Follow it
Follow your hunch
Follow your hunch
Follow it

[HUNCHES, OFFSTAGE VOICES]
Follow it home

[ALL]
Anything's possible!
