Chasing The Whos - Original Broadway Cast Recording

Hey! Give that back

Stop!

Up out of the jungle, up into the sky

Up over the mountains, ten thousand feet high

Then down from the mountains and into the news

Went Horton the elephant chasing the whos

Chasing the whos (chasing the whos)

(This is Cat in the hat, live from Sky Cam 5)

(Folks, the Jungle of Nool is one heck of a drive)

(We've got monkeys backed up to the 302)

(I'd find alternate routes if I were you)

Then over the desert, the desert of Dreze

And into the forest, with thousands of trees

Past sneetches on beaches, and sour kangaroos

Went Horton the elephant chasing the whos! (Chasing the whos)

Chasing the whos! (Chasing the whos)

Still chasing your dust?

Why, it's safe as can be

We're monkeys to trust

Oh, well, don't you agree?

Well, just to be sure

We're handing it off

To a black-bottomed eagle named

Vlad Vladikoff! Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Please wait!

All that late afternoon and far into the night

That black-bottomed bird flapped his wings in fast flight

And he paid no attention to Horton's loud call

A person's a person, no matter how small

(Oh, oh)

We're whos here, we're all whos here

Please don't let us fall (oh)

We're whos here, we could bruise here

Helpless, weak and small (oh)

On Horton traveled and on that bird flew

And, oh, there was trouble

Trouble on who?

That black-bottomed eagle was cruel as could be

'Cause at 6:56, Vlad Vladikoff dropped it

The clover went tumbling and nobody stopped it

Head over heels, one hundred miles down

Fell the poor little whos and their whole tiny town

Ah!
