Hey there, Barbaloot!
You look so cute
in your Barbaloot suit (GROUP 1)
Your fur's so soft, hey you know what
I'm gonna shave a little bit off your Barbaloot butt

This is it! These truffula trees
All my life I've searched for trees, such trees as these (GROUP 2)
The touch of their tufts is softer than silk
And they have the sweet smell of butterfly milk

Oh everybody now!
Na, na, na na na na
Na na na na, na, nah, neh n-eh?
Eheh, guys? C'mon, where's my back-up chorus? (SOLO)
It's not happening? It's not happening.
You guys don't feel like singing...

You need a Thneed

Oh, I got a little jingle gonna blow some minds.
Gonna sell some thneeds. (THE LORAX)
Yaahh.
Ya everybody needs a thneed.
A fine thing that all people need.
The thneed is good. (CHOIR)
The thneed is great.
Ya and it's just three ninty eigh eigh eigh eigh eight.
Ya everybody needs a thneed.
It's revolutionary guaranteeeeeed.
The thneed is new.
The thneed is nice.
And did you see that priiiiice?
Since the glorious dawn of man
there's never been a thing can do what this thing can.
So listen carefullyyy
to all the wonderful things a thneed can beeee.

It's a sock. It's a suit,
boxing glove, parachute,
a butterfly net, reusable diaper,
an exercise built, a runny nose wiper,
a sling shot, a muzzle, a jump rope, a hat,
a colourful sweater you put on your cat.
Nothing else in this world can do that.
Hold young totish up in match.
Republican, independent, unitarian, or democrattttt.
But wait, there's more. (SOLOIST AS NEWS READER)
Thanks to its all natural microfibers the thneed is super absorbent.
It also works as a hat.
Course you might want to ring it out first.
Go ahead. Go ahead. Knock yourself out. Humm. (SOLOIST AS CRITIC)
But nobody’s going to buy that thing.

How bad can it be?

How bad can I be?
I'm just doing what comes naturally
How bad can I be?
I'm just following my destiny
How bad can I be?
I'm just doing what comes naturally
How bad can I be?
How bad can I possibly be?
Well there's a principle of nature (principle of nature) (KIWI’S ECHO)
That almost every creature knows
Called survival of the fittest (survival of the fittest)
And check it this is how it goes
The animal that eats has got to scratch and fight
And claw and bite and punch
And the animal that doesn't well the animal that doesn't
Winds up someone else's l-l-lunch (lunch lunch lunch lunch lunch)
I'm just sayin'
How bad can I be?
I'm just doing what comes naturally
How bad can I be?
I'm just following my destiny
How bad can I be?
I'm just doing what comes naturally
How bad can I be?
How bad can I possibly be?
There's a principle in business (principle in business) (KIWI’S ECHO)
That everybody knows is sound
It says the people with the money (people with the money)
Make this ever loving world go 'round

So I'm biggering my company
I'm biggering my factory
I'm biggering my corporate sign
Everybody out there can take care of yours
And me? I'll take care of mine mine mine mine mine (shake that bottom line)
Let me hear you say smogedy smoke (smogedy smoke) (KIWI’S ECHO)
Schlopadee Scholp (Schlopadee Schlop)
Complain all you want it's never ever ever ever gonna stop
Come on now how bad can it possibly be?
How bad can I be?
I'm just building the economy (KIWI’S ECHO: HOW BAD CAN I BE?)
How bad can I be?
Just look at me petting this puppy
How bad can I be?
A portion of proceeds goes to charity
How bad can I be?
How bad can I possibly be?
Let's see
All the customers are buying
And the money is multiplying
And the PR people are lying
And the lawyers are denying
Who cares if a few trees are dying
This is all so gratifying
How bad
How bad can this possibly be

Nine to five

Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawnin', stretchin', try to come to life

Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'
Out on the streets, the traffic starts jumpin'
With folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

Workin' 9 to 5, what a way to make a livin'
Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

9 to 5, for service and devotion
You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
Want to move ahead but the boss won't seem to let me
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me

They let your dream, just watch 'em shatter
You're just a step on the boss man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll never take away

In the same boat with a lot of your friends
Waitin' for the day your ship 'll come in
And the tide's gonna turn an' it's all gonna roll your away

Workin' 9 to 5 what a way to make a livin'
Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'
They just use your mind and you never get the credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you
There's a better life and you think about it, don't you?
It's a rich man's game, no matter what they call it
And you spend your life putting money in his wallet

Workin' 9 to 5, oh what a way to make a livin'
Barely gettin' by, it's all takin' and no givin'
They just use you mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

9 to 5, yeah, they got you where they want you
There's a better life and you think about it, don't you?
It's a rich man's game, no matter what they call it
And you spend your life putting money in his wallet

"Money Money Money"

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I was a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money

It’s a rich man’s world.


It's a rich man’s world
Money like that is hard to find but I can't get it off my mind
Ain't it sad
so I biggered the factory, our roads, our wagons and the loads
That's alright
I meant no harm, I have to grow
Making thneeds from money trees
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In a rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In a rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a Once-ler’s world
