Biggest Blame Fool - Original Broadway Cast Recording

Humpf, humpfed a voice

'Twas a sour kangaroo

And the young kangaroo in her pouch said

"Humpf" too

Why that speck is as small as the head of a pin

A person on that? Why there never has been

You're the biggest blame fool

In the Jungle of Nool

And I don't care who I tell

The biggest blame fool

In the Jungle of Nool

And I think so as well

Maybe I'm nasty, maybe I'm cruel

But you're the biggest blame fool

In the Jungle of Nool

It's true, please believe me, I tell you sincerely

My ears are quite keen and I heard him quite clearly

I know there's a person down there and what's more

Quite likely there's two, even three, even four

Ha, laughed a voice

Ha, laughed some others

Ha, ha, ha, laughed the Wickersham brothers!

Oh, he's the biggest blame fool

In the Jungle of Nool

And monkeys like us should know

We've been out on a limb

Lookin' down on him but he's fat, dumb

He's slow

Elephants ain't too swift as a rule

But he's the biggest blame fool

In the Jungle of Nool

'Cause he's talkin' to a speck

Talkin' to a speck, to a speck of dust

Blame fool in the Jungle of Noo

Talkin' to a speck, talkin' to a speck

To a speck of dust

Blame fool in the Jungle of Nool

R E S P E C K

Oh, please, take that speck away

Did you hear? Did you hear?

Did you, did you hear?

Through the jungle, the news quickly spread

Did you hear? Did you hear?

Did you, did you hear?

He talks to a dust speck, he's out of his head

Our topic today is Psychic elephants who hear voices

Whaddaya think, folks, is the elephant off his trunk?

Don't go away we'll he right back with speck

Clover, dust, "eighbor, 'who, stay tuned

Biggest blame fool in the Jungle of Nool

I'm Gertrude McFuzz and I live right next door

He's never done anything crazy before

Biggest blame fool in the Jungle of Nool

He's always been friendly and loyal and kind

I just don't believe Horton's out of his mind

Did you hear? Did you hear?

Did you, did you hear?

I'm Mayzie La Bird

And I live in that tree

Did you hear? Did you hear?

Did you, did you hear?

Enough about Horton

Let's talk about me

Let's talk about, talk about

Talk about, talk about me

Talkin' to a speck, talkin' to a speck

To a speck of dust

Blame fool in the Jngle of Nool

Talkin' to a speck, talkin' to a speck

To a speck of dust

Blame fool in the Jungle of Nool

I just have to save them, because after all

A person's a person no matter how small

A person's a person no matter how
