All For You!

I love the song from seussical. I hope I can do this for someone some day.

GERTRUDE - I had a little trouble 'Cause I grew a little tail. Well, it wasn't really little. It was absolutely giant! And it really was attractive But you never even noticed, So I felt a little silly even trying Besides which the tail was too heavy For normal flying.
HORTON - Go on.
GERTRUDE - Well, when the hunters caught you I could see that I'd been foolish 'Cause I couldn't even help you No, I couldn't even fly. And I got so very frightened 'Cause I knew I had to save you. No one else was gonna go to all the labor. It was all up to me, All you had was your next door neighbor.
(THE CAT as DR. DAKE enters.)
GERTRUDE - So I ran to the doctor.
CAT AS DR. DAKE - The doctor named Dake. And she said.-
GERTRUDE - My tail has been a mistake!
CAT AS DR. DAKE - And she said:
GERTRUDE - Dr. Dake, I've been foolish and vain.Pluck it out! Get it off! I won't do it again!
CAT AS DR. DAKE - Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!
GERTRUDE - Ouch, it hurt a lot!
CAT AS DR. DAKE - Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!
GERTRUDE - Ooh, a tender spot
CAT AS DR. DAKE - Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!
GERTRUDE - Just a one feather tail...
DR. DAKE, GERTRUDE & BIRD GIRLS - But suddenly, Gertrude could sail! GERTRUDE - (dramatically)I sailed on a junk And was practically sunk For you. I trampled thorough the trees Full of furious bees For you. I slogged through a fog And a choking smog Down a soggy slope Through a stinking bog While my slip was gripped By a vicious dog For you.
GERTRUDE BIRD GIRLS - I galloped through the snow ooh... In eleven below For you. ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Yes, even though I knew ooh... I was catching the flu For you
(achoo!) (achoo!)
And then came the hole Where I caught my sole And I rolled downhill Out of all control 'Till I broke my fall On a jagged shoal For you! All for you All for you All for you All for you There's nothing that I Wouldn't And I couldn't And I haven't gone through... With tremendous conviction and grit!)I sprained my little toe, I hobbled like so For you. Then came the hit and run But I staggered on one For you. Now, here I am, The worse for wear And here you are I'm here! You're there! And maybe now You'll know I care For you!
GERTRUDE Oh, yes. And Horton, one more thing... It took me seven weeks... But I found your clover, Too!
Oh man. I was thinking I could find the song on youtube.. but that did not work out too well... oh well. this works just as fun!.. as fun? as well.. huh... kinda wierd. My brother wants to play uno attack... I don't know If I really want to. But iwill. becasue I told him I would. I hope this works. it did not work last time.Well I guess I can't put it on here. Oh well. Find All for you on You tube... like this one. This one is ok. But the original broadway cast sounds better.... :D
