Notice Me, Horton

Notice Me, Horton Lyrics

(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 vasod 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! [key change]
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

(Both)
I was just a no one only yesterday,
But you showed up and showed me something more. [key change]
Now I've become a someone
Who has someone to believe in and to be there for.

(Gertrude)
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...

(Both)
The way I notice you.
