GERTRUDE It's taken all my courage to approach you Not to mention all my stamina to follow you Across the hills and deserts. But I feel as if I'm ready To confess to you the feelings That I've hidden with great diligence and labor... Behind the façade Of your odd little next-door neighbor. My eyes are too small. I have very large feet. And I'm not very proud of my pitiful tweet But I've now got a tail That is something to see... HORTON One hundred and two. One hundred and three. GERTRUDE Oh, notice me, Horton, feather by feather. This is your next-door neighbor calling! Notice me, Horton. Horton, together We could be great Oh, notice me, Horton Put down the clover! This is your next door neighbor calling. There's a new leaf Your neighbor's turned over HORTON Over and over, Clover by clover... GERTRUDE, HORTON I was just a no one only yesterday. You showed up and showed me something more. Now I've become a someone Who has someone to believe in And to be there for... (HORTON continues his search) GERTRUDE (Quietly determined) I will not give up hope. I was hooked from the start When I noticed your kind And your powerful heart. So notice me, Horton... HORTON Oh, the world would be something new GERTRUDE Notice me, Horton HORTON If they noticed a thing or two... GERTRUDE Notice me, Horton GERTRUDE, HORTON The way I notice you. (The clock ticks as HORTON continues his clover search. GERTRUDE finally exits in defeat. Time jumps to much later in his search.) HORTON Two million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine. It's hopeless. MAYZIE You said it kid. (For a second, HORTON thinks he's heard the WHOS!) HORTON Who's there? MAYZIE It's me. Mayzie. Up here. (HORTON sees MAYZIE sitting on a huge, colorful egg, in a nest, in a tree) HORTON Mayzie .. Are you on a nest? MAYZIE (defensive) Yeah. You wanna make something of it? HORTON No, I just never thought I'd see you on a nest MAYZIE Neither did I, Hort...neither did I. (The CAT as PIANIST rides out on a small, Seussian piano and plays a musical intro for MAYZIE) Back to main page: Seussical Lyrics Broadway Seussical Lyrics
