About

The Cat in the Hat is back to sing his terribly ironic song about how things could be worse– right when Horton is stuck on the egg and chased by hunters.

Horton Sits On the Egg / Act I Finale Annotated

[Bird Girls]
Then carefully, tenderly,
Gently he crept
Up the trunk to the nest
Where the little egg slept
Then Horton the elephant smiled:

[Horton]
Now that's that

[Bird Girls]
And he sat and he sat
And he sat and he sat

He sat all that day
And he kept the egg warm
And sat all that night
Through a terrible storm

Ooh...Ahh!

[Horton]
I can't leave this nest
No, I meant what I said
This egg might get frozen
But the Whos might be dead
I couldn't say no
When I heard Mayzie beg
Now I'm caught between a dust speck
And an incubating egg

Oh no! Hunters! Someone help me!

[Gertrude]
Horton! ... Horton!

[Horton]
Hunters, someone help!

When your life's going wrong
And you're wondering why

[Gertrude]
When your tail is so long
You're unable to fly

[Horton, Gertrude, & Cat]
Tell yourself how lucky you are.

Why decry a cloudy sky
An empty purse, a crazy universe
My philosophy is simply:
Things could be worse

[All]
So be happy you're here
Think of life as a thrill
And if worse comes to worse
As we all know it will,
Thank your lucky star
You've gotten this far...

[All]
Tell yourself
How lucky you are, how lucky! How lucky!
how lucky you...
How lucky you are, how lucky! How lucky!
how lucky you...
How lucky you are, how lucky! How lucky!
how lucky! How lucky!
how lucky!
How lucky you are! How lucky you are!
