one morning in very early spring when
the snow was just beginning to melt it
was still cold enough to convince
Pinocchio that bed was infinitely
preferable to school which means that
Tommy bird wasn't exactly singing his
favorite song
Tommy on the other hand wasn't easily
discouraged
[Music]
[Music]
good morning
well come on now Pinocchio it's time to
get ready for school I'm cold
and very sleepy
if you want to go to school you have to
get up bright and early don't you want
to be smart and successful like a real
boy
I guess so father
[Music]
hey it's Brian
well I can't do anything about that
well
[Music]
For Heaven's Sake my boy now why I'm
afraid I tripped over my night shirt
father whoa and something seems to have
gone wrong with my feet as well
foreign
well no wonder you've got them turned
the wrong way
[Music]
b*at it you little
it's all your fault that I'm having
these problems this morning if you just
mind your own business and quit making
all that rack and we'd all be better oh
cute my boy that's no way to talk to my
little friend when all he wants is the
best for you I'm sorry Father
but it's not just the bird it's all that
snow I hate it
but why it's so cold but that's Nature's
Way soon the spring will come and the
snow will thaw and run into the ground
and when the ground warms up new life
will begin to appear refreshed by the
moisture from the melted snow
Fields will turn green and the rivers
will flow strong and steady to the Sea
bringing new light to all nature
blossoms of every variety Will Spring
forth and the rivers themselves will
team New Life
everywhere you look the Miracle of Life
will renew itself from the strongest to
the most fragile
foreign
[Music]
[Applause]
creatures pop out of their Burrows and
celebrate the Rites of Spring
[Music]
thank you
[Music]
all sorts of wonderful things happen in
the spring
but it can be a time fraught with Danger
[Music]
thank you
foreign
the most terrible things can happen
let me tell you about one boy who wasn't
careful down by the riverbank
he was trying to catch a rabbit for his
mother to cook for supper but as you
know rabbits run very fast the boy
wasn't watching where he was going
[Music]
oh
[Music]
[Music]
that was all
the little boy was swept over the falls
and he was never seen again understand
mm-hmm
so he must never go near the river
during spring thaw yes Father hear a
good boy Pinocchio
I can't stand this that dreaded puppet's
making me sick now go and eat your
breakfast but first be sure that you
wash your hands and face and brush your
teeth yes sir
it's disgusting hmm
is that you Charlie
my goodness I'd almost forgotten about
your breakfast
well here you go my little friend
you're a good boy too
now go straight to school I will
don't forget your lunch my boy it's ham
and cheese sandwiches and chocolate
pudding ah
oh thank you Father that sounds
wonderful
[Music]
well I'll be going farther goodbye
goodbye chocolate pudding that little
Mallet head gets all the breaks
wow I can hardly wait to eat my
sandwiches in my chocolate pudding I
wonder what ham sandwiches and chocolate
pudding tastes like
for that matter I wonder what anything
tastes like
oh gee I wish I was a real boy nonsense
what who asked your opinion anyway in
fact get off my books
what are you getting so happy about I'm
only trying to help a fat law to help
you or if you could help anyone you
wouldn't be a ghost in the first place
it's not my fault that I'm a ghost but
maybe I can keep you from becoming one
and you'll need all the help you can get
help from you that's a laugh I'm gonna
become a real boy so keep out of my way
you'll never become a real boy if you
don't listen to advice oh dry up
hey Pinocchio wait a minute the oak
fairy told me to look after you but you
gotta help won't you please try no now
leave me alone
have to be a boys Guardian when he
doesn't want your help but I gotta keep
trying I just gotta get rid of that
blasted puppet he's driving me out of my
mind before he came around here I was
the number one boy
probably studying very hard oh him again
I certainly hope he enjoys his lunch
tomorrow I think I'll make deviled egg
sandwiches for him
home he's gonna make deviled egg
sandwiches for hemlock and it isn't fair
it isn't oh hey wait a minute this might
be a stroke of luck it's a well-known
fact that foxes and weasels like eggs
and I happen to know just the guys
[Music]
oh boy my father sees this
mm-hmm
good Heavens
oh my boy
I don't understand why you're crying did
I do something wrong father no no my boy
I'm weeping because I'm so proud of the
fine grades you brought home from school
my bright little fellow
I'm all right
I'm just so happy I can't help
blubbering
[Music]
strange they weep because of their
happiness father my boys learn so much I
can hardly believe it
[Music]
a right mine's Tamara
Oh yeah deviled egg sandwiches huh
Amy Patches by this corner here every
single day
this mouse is great so I thought about
you guys right away how do we know you
ain't lying nobody calls me a liar
present company accepted
wow I'm desperate I haven't had a
deviled egg sandwich in a dog's age what
if the kid doesn't joke he'll show up
any minute now
so you're sure okay we'll see you just
gotta be patient pal one old Mallet head
comes around the corner you guys are set
that ain't better yeah that might even
be chicken in the pack you never know oh
my gosh
a plump b*llet would be acceptable
stomach is positively palpitating with
pleasure oh
[Music]
he doesn't even know he's making it for
us and how are we supposed to get it
away from the puppet what do you suppose
I've been trying to figure out all
morning stupid you know Jack you got
this strange having a choking people to
get their attention I might be able to
think of something yeah
come on down
you know how the river gets in the
spring rivering yeah you're gonna point
there
[Music]
this is what we're gonna do see we'll
lure them down the river and when he's
not looking you guys shove him in you
mean we shove them in above the Falls
that seems to me like a rather drastic
method of pilfering somebody's lunch
even for a rodent or am I wrong gosh why
don't we just take it away from them I
think we ought to be able to overpower
one little puppet because this little
puppet can talk and you don't want him
to tell Geppetto on us do you my cookies
mercy no then he has to go into the
river you don't know how it hurts me to
see my friends going hungry while this
little marionette rebels in the lap of
luxury
believe me when I say once Geppetto was
my friend then benefactor and we lived
together in harmony then he came and
spoiled it all that means this
interloper is enjoying what should
rightfully belong to us in the first
place it's time for Revenge absolutely
here he comes now oh come on
[Music]
come on an idiot
he's coming this way all right oh I'm so
excited I'm gonna meet him halfway
oh goodness Charlie are you coming to
school with me man my friends and I are
going to a real fun place thought you'd
like to come oh no I've got to hurry to
get to school on time please allow me to
introduce myself my name is Jack and I'm
the promoter of the spring mold
wrestling down at the riverbank and I'd
like you to be my guest yeah more
wrestling gosh

bombs come on pal please Pinocchio I'm
just making some new friends will you
leave me alone for a minute I don't
trust them you don't trust my new
friends no uh may I ask who you're
speaking to my friend we better be on
our way huh what's that oh yeah sure
let's go
[Music]
he's just Bound for trouble
I'm go
when are the most
all the malls are already here but you
have to get closer to the riverbank to
see them step right over there
uh by the way since the moles have just
awakened from the winter hibernation
they'd probably be terribly hungry I'll
hold your lunch by way of precaution
that's very kind thank you
who ran up to the riverbank my friend
where are the moles I don't see them you
have to get closer to the water and look
down
[Music]
patience patience
[Music]
[Music]
yeah yeah we'll be real careful when you
get to the falls
[Music]
be sure to hurry home now Japan will be
worried

passed if there ever was one
of you
do I want to panic try to pull yourself
toward the bank Pinocchio's safe where
is he
[Music]
I could have sworn I heard Pinocchio's
voice just then hmm it couldn't have
been him he's still in school
Just My Imagination
[Music]
I'm trying to pull you up

fairy take courage Pinocchio and keep
trying

real boy now pull yourself hand over
hand up my arm
I know you'll make me proud of you okay
come on once more now and pause
[Music]
so Pinocchio was able to save himself
with the aid of the oak fairy but he
wasn't out of danger yet
Pinocchio my son you didn't heed your
father's warning and that's why you've
been punished
for everything we do there's a price to
pay and when children don't listen to
their parents they Place themselves in
danger you were almost swept over the
falls because of your Disobedience and
that would have been the end of you go
now make Geppetto proud of you
bad though
oh
Papa
what was that a boy's voice and it
sounded like Pinocchio I hope he's all
right
Pinocchio Pinocchio where are you
he thinks that the brats come back
boy has he got a big surprise coming
my boy what's happened to you
you have a terrible fever and your
clothes are all wet did you fall in the
river oh well father I'm drowning you
went down to the river after I explained
how dangerous it was and I warned you to
stay away from it my father's gonna be
very angry because I was disobedient I'm
sorry Father I'll never do it again I
promise you I'll never even go near the
river again I know it was the wrong
thing to go there father please forgive
me and I'll be good I promise I promise
I told the oak fairy I'm never gonna be
disobedient again and I'll make you
proud of me of course I forgive you my
boy and now that you're home I'm going
to make you well again
[Music]
now just rest
I'll soon have you well again
[Music]
my you've got your death of gold but
don't worry it'll be all right I'll be
by your side for as long as it takes
just praying for your speedy recovery
his recovery my eye if I
had buy a place right now yeah
[Music]
dear father please spare the life of my
sweet little boy Pinocchio he's only a
small boy and probably doesn't make much
difference in the scheme of things
but I would gladly sacrifice my life if
you would just let him survive
wooden head does get well God the fever
is worse I guess I have no choice now
I'll have to go up on the mountain where
the healing herbs are
I won't be long son be patient a bit
longer
last
[Music]
I always say if you want a job done well
you better do it yourself
what's going on hey
[Music]
it feels like someone's pulling on my
whisker what a strange sensation I guess
it's a good thing I'm already a ghost
otherwise I might be in pretty serious
trouble myself with this guy I can't get
over the feeling that someone's pulling
my whisker now oh I pulled the whisker
out and now hoes knows your time has
come
yeah
how did the hammer get there on my teeth
I could have sworn that thing wasn't
here a couple of seconds ago but since
it is I might as well put it to good use
[Applause]
my pause they feel like they're broken
that Mouse will give up any minute now
that blasted puppet leads a Charmed Life
but I'm not done with them yet
after all that I guess I'll have to rely
on my own Choppers anyhow
[Music]
whatever that was it's taken care of now
but back to business I've wasted too
much time already nothing can save you
now Mallet head
[Music]
thank you
