I was in a school play where I was Gertrude, and my crush was Horton... and before the show I told him I liked him After the show and we’re still dating.
You're so lucky because my crush wasn't a big fan of theater so I couldn't impress him with my Horton skills. Sad times....but it's ok cause I don't have a crush on him anymore lol.
@@ArtinVulpin I remember being in this show during my time in a theatre class in middle school playing a who, and all the who’s in the version we did all had to sound angry at Horton with the “la la las” at 2:15 for not noticing Gertrude earlier
All for you Lyrics: 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. 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 through all the labor. It was all up to me, all you had was your next door neighbor. So she ran to the doctor. The doctor named Dake. And she said: My tail has been a mistake! And she said: Doctor Dake I've been foolish and vain. Pluck it out! Get it off! I won't do it again! Pluck, pluck, pluck! Ouch, it hurt a lot! Pluck, pluck, pluck! Ooh, a tender spot! Pluck, pluck, pluck! Just a one feather tail. But suddenly, Gertrude could sail! I sailed on a junk and was practically sunk, for you. I trampled through 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. I galloped through the snow in eleven below, for you. Yes, even though I knew I was catching the flu, for you. (Achoo!) And then came the hole where I caught my sole and I rolled downhill out of all control, Til I broke my fall on a jagged shoal, for you! All for you. All for you. There is nothing that I wouldn't, And I couldn't, And I haven't gone through... I sprained my little toe, But 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! Oh, yes. And Horton? One more thing... It took me seven weeks, But I found your clover too.
This is my absolute favorite song in the entire musical. I love that it can be sung in head voice and sound great when belting (I'm a belter 100%)! I'm auditioning for Gertrude and this song is her audition piece! Wish me luck!
So funny story aye hahah So basically I was bird girl number 2 in this musical and I was around in 5th grade, anyways, so the bird girls and I go out for this song and just the bird girls say "suddenly Gertrude could sail" but in around I think 2 shows the other birdgirls would go of stage on accident just before the line, and they left me on stage so I had the solo of my dreams, so yea thanks

Ugh, the Jr version of this is so much better! The bit with the cat interrupting the singing disrupts the flow. It's much better if the interruption is caused by the wickershams. The version with the cat makes it to gradual and spoon fed
@gymnast2010addict: thank you SO MUCH for these songs you have posted! im working on this, too! i dont have the CD, and now im relying on youtube for this! THANK YOU!
I'm thinking of doing it as an Audition that way! Also, I think it would be cute if it's the other way. She starts off super mad and softens because she loves him.
it kind of does. she starts out soft then slowly gets madder then softens again. you can hear it in her voice, and yes you posted this 11 yrs ago, but i’m reminding you of this masterpiece.
I imagine this song as some of my characters, Denise a supersaurus explaining her trials and tribulations she did to get to Luz the lusotitan and at the end of the song she expresses that she loves him and shows him his friend that he thought he lost, two human children named Jack and Anna.

playing gertrude next weekend eek my bff is playing horton and its hella awkward when the teachers make us hold hands and be all lovey dovey but its still fun
I was in a school play where I was Gertrude, and my crush was Horton... and before the show I told him I liked him
After the show and we’re still dating.
LpsFireworkTV THATS THE BEST STORY IVE EVER HEARD
I love that!! 😍😍😍
You're so lucky because my crush wasn't a big fan of theater so I couldn't impress him with my Horton skills. Sad times....but it's ok cause I don't have a crush on him anymore lol.
Now that’s an anime plot done right
That is so cool!
All Gertrudes in the house!!!!
Ana Kusenberger yisss
YEAH
We have 3 different Gertrude's in our shows!! #anakusenberger
Here!
Haii
The epic song of exhaustion when done right is not only fun but feels and looks like you did go through all the ordeals of Gertrude McFuzz.
I feel like this should be performed with Gertrude getting increasingly more and more angry at Horton for ignoring her throughout all her troubles...
noted, I'm playing Gertrude for this!
@scarlettscali
@@ArtinVulpin I remember being in this show during my time in a theatre class in middle school playing a who, and all the who’s in the version we did all had to sound angry at Horton with the “la la las” at 2:15 for not noticing Gertrude earlier
I was gertrude and this was my FAVORITE song EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved it!!!!!!!!!!
i am having a hardddd time remembering the words and the show is tomorrow
I am a wickersham brother and Horton understudy and I love this show. In ours the wickershams are a scooter gang
TheRealGuyYTV you’re the only other Horton understudy I could find. Cool. And I replied after 5 years.
All for you Lyrics:
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.
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.

No-one else was gonna go through all the labor.
It was all up to me, all you had was your next door neighbor.
So she ran to the doctor.
The doctor named Dake.
And she said:
My tail has been a mistake!
And she said:
Doctor Dake I've been foolish and vain.
Pluck it out!
Get it off!
I won't do it again!
Pluck, pluck, pluck!
Ouch, it hurt a lot!
Pluck, pluck, pluck!
Ooh, a tender spot!
Pluck, pluck, pluck!
Just a one feather tail.
But suddenly, Gertrude could sail!
I sailed on a junk and was practically sunk, for you.
I trampled through 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.
I galloped through the snow in eleven below, for you.
Yes, even though I knew I was catching the flu, for you.
(Achoo!)
And then came the hole where I caught my sole and I rolled downhill out of all control,
Til I broke my fall on a jagged shoal, for you!
All for you.
All for you.
There is nothing that I wouldn't,
And I couldn't,
And I haven't gone through...
I sprained my little toe,
But 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!
Oh, yes. And Horton?
One more thing...
It took me seven weeks,
But I found your clover too.
I couldn’t stop laughing during this song. Our Gertrude just performed it so well
OoOo A tEnDeR sPoT
everything gertrude did for horton i would do the same for my boyfriend
if i had one
I was Gertrude twice and now I'm mayzie but it's still my favorite song❤️
"Gertrude is a huge simp."
- My sister 2021
literally, I'm playing Gertrude and my best friend is playing Horton, and all he says is "ur a simp" the entire practice
@@ArtinVulpin lmao
This is my absolute favorite song in the entire musical. I love that it can be sung in head voice and sound great when belting (I'm a belter 100%)! I'm auditioning for Gertrude and this song is her audition piece! Wish me luck!
I was a who but I loved the part that said but suddenly Gertrude could sail!! I'm gonna listen that on repeat
This video helps so much. This is the hardest song for me to do in the play because I can't remember some of the words but it helped. Thanks!
Ariel Czernia the same thing happend to me!!
Ariel Czernia Same
I was a Who! I love this play!
I was a Bird Girl in 7th grade and this was my FAVORITE song.
I'm a bird girl and I'm in 7th grade RN 😲
super late but i was also a bird girl in 7th grade and i loved it!!!
So funny story aye hahah
So basically
I was bird girl number 2 in this musical and I was around in 5th grade, anyways, so the bird girls and I go out for this song and just the bird girls say "suddenly Gertrude could sail" but in around I think 2 shows the other birdgirls would go of stage on accident just before the line, and they left me on stage so I had the solo of my dreams, so yea thanks
They wanted us to audition with a song from the show and because every girl did notice me Horton I decided to do this song instead and I got Gertrude😊
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

Gertrude
*Espionage*
1:27 why does this part get me every time
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.

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 ooh
Where I caught my sole ooh
And I rolled downhill ooh
Out of all control ooh
'Till I broke my fall
On a jagged shoal
For you!
ooh, ooh, ooh, ahh!
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...
ahh, aah, aah, aah!
(With tremendous conviction and grit!)
I sprained my little toe, but la-la-la-la-la!
I hobbled like so la-la-la-la!
For you. La-la-la-la-la-la-la!
ooh ... Ooh ... Ooh
Then came the hit and run la-la-la-la-la!
But I staggered on one la-la-la-la!
For you. La-la-la-la-la-la-la!
Now, here I am, ahh-ah!
The worse for wear
And here you are ahh-ah!
I'm here!
You're there!
And maybe now ah!
You'll know I care ahh-ah!
For you! Ooh!
ooh ...
GERTRUDE
Oh, yes. And Horton, one more thing...
It took me seven weeks...
But I found your clover,
Too!
(HORTON eagerly takes the clover from GERTRUDE)
HORTON, DR. DAKE & BIRD GIRLS
WHO!
HORTON
Gertrude...I never noticed...you're...Amazing!
GERTRUDE
Aw, it was nothing.
HORTON
Hello, Whos, hello! Is anyone there?
(HE holds the clover to his ear and gets an answer as MR. MAYOR, MRS.
MAYOR appear)
MRS. AND MRS. MAYOR
Hello!!
HORTON
Oh, what a relief! Why, hello, Mr. Mayor! Is JoJo all right?
(HE listens again)
JOJO
Hi, Horton!
HORTON
Oh, JoJo! Hello!
Kid, now that I've got you, I won't let you go!
I'll shelter and guard you, because after all,
A person's a person
No matter how small!
MR. AND MRS. MAYOR, JOJO, HORTON, GERTRUDE
A person's a person
No matter how...
(THE CAT IN THE HAT interrupts this tender moment with a whistle.)
CAT
How happy and sweet...but this tale is not over!
JOJO
Oh yes it is, too! Get me down from this clover!
CAT
I'm sorry, there's no happy ending in sight!
So all I can say is - Hey, JoJo, hold tight!
(THE WICKERSHAM BROTHERS
and the SOUR KANGAROO/YOUNG KANGAROO appear)
WICKERSHAM #1
Ha!
WICKERSHAM #2,3
Ha!
SOUR KANGAROO
Humph!
GERTRUDE
How did you get here?!
SOUR KANGAROO
You can't run away from a sour kangaroo
Palm Beach to Pittsburgh to Kalamazoo
And you - with your egg and your tree and your nest!
I'm making a sour citizen's arrest!
HORTON
Wait! Stop! Where are you taking me?
SOUR KANGAROO & WICKERSHAMS
Well Horton, we're taking you back.
You're gonna be goin' in style.

And sittin' on an egg
