[Music]

Lo man a

te what some

Mani what are

manatees yeah that's what I want to know

what's a

manatees a manatee is the gentle giant

of the river manatees are huge slow

moving mammals that live in the warm

Waters of the South but they're almost

extinct

really I don't smell

nothing no extinct means that there's

only a few of them left you see big

boats and barges can't see them in the

water and the manatees don't see them

coming they swim just under the surface

of the water and the boats run over

them golly I wish there was something we

could do to help

them too bad there's not a safe place

for them to

go only a few of them left eh they must

be pretty

valuable oh howdy friend I'm Billy Bob

possum and this here is Joe raccoon

yeah yeah yeah tell me Willie what's one

of them manatees worth it's Billy and I

don't know what they're worth you can't

put a price on a

manity my boy everything has a price

allow me to introduce myself vas o fat

rat At Your

Service what's the o stand for Mr fat

rat opportunity my boy and and when it

knocks you better answer the

door opportunity for what Mr bat

rat opportunity to do a good deed

Willie

Billy don't you bumpin see why we should

get those manatees away from this

place but I don't think them manties are

for

sale hello in there anybody home

we don't buy them mo we borrow

them you mean steal them don't you Mr

fat

rat steel did you say

steel why Willie you pain me to the core

that you would think I would take

something that didn't belong to me when

I was only trying to help those poor

unfortunate

Whatchamacallit I'm sorry Mr fat rat I

thought oh that's all right wiie Bob you

see I was thinking that since there's

only a few of those things left then we

should find a safe place for them to go

that's

all that's a great idea Mr fat

rat then you'll help me round them

up well as long as we're back to Big Al

tonight in time for the talent show sure

we'll help you won't we

Joe

well I guess

so fine boys fine now I got a bad back

so you boys will have to do the rounding

up meanwhile I'll go find a safe haven

for our water logged

friends before you go boys sign

this what's

this hello do I have to explain

everything it's just a contract that

says you boys will round up the manatees

and turn them over to me for

[Music]

safekeeping I guess it's okay Joe Mr

fatrat looks like a kind person to me

I'm sure he only wants to help the

manatees say Mr fat rat exactly what

kind of work do you do oh even that word

makes my back hurt son I'm one of those

rare Souls that doesn't have to work I'm

too smart for that

now some folks work for what they back

but I just never had the Knack I use my

brains and not my back not working works

for me while other Critters sweat and

strain that kind of thing Drive be

insane I just sit back and use my brain

not working works for me now there are

those who rush to work and those of us

who wait and who know knows what

tomorrow brings so I

procrastinate that means don't hurry

hurry Billy

B why work my fing to theone let others

bring the home then I sit back and make

a loan not working work for me

[Music]

yeah

now there are those who rush to work and

those of us who

wait and who knows what tomorrow brings

so I

procrastinate that means don't hurry

M

no why I work my fingers to the Bone let

others bring the bacon home and I'll sit

back and make a loan not working works

for me oh yeah not working always works

for

me yeah

better sounds to me like you want

everybody else to do the work so you can

borrow from

them don't knock it till you've tried it

Willie the name is Billy Bob not will

Bob and on second thought I don't think

your intentions are honorable I don't

think you want to help the manatees at

all I think you just want to use

them pretty smart my boy pretty smart

and you and your mask friend there are

going to help me wrong Mr fat rat all

contr oh you with the funny hair that

contract you signed says that you agree

to round up every manatee in Lost Lagoon

Joe well we thought we were helping the

manatees and I don't even know what one

just a

misunderstanding I oh it's you yep time

to go Mr fat rat we got a lot of work to

do did you say

work I sure did lots of work and I'll

need about a 100

clams 100 clams what do you need all

that dough

for well this is a list of all the

things we'll need to keep the manatees

now let's see 20 clams for

fencing fencing 20

clams Manatee food 30 clams food 30

clams well sure manatees have giant

appetites you

know giant

appetites oh sure and we'll have to

fatten them up for a few months before

folks will pay to see

them and that's 30 clams per

week per

week and 40 clams a week for

Combs

Combs of course or those manatees will

never look this

good this good you mean that's a goodl

looking

Manatee well of course they won't all

look that good that's a rare beautiful

specimen now let's see 10 clams a week

for wait a minute I uh changed my mind

about those manatees I think they're

better off just where they

are but uh Mr fat rat you can't change

your your mind we have a

contract hello in there not anymore we

don't but what about the cost of moving

the manatees we've already got them

rounded up I'll pay it I'll pay it how

much oh I think 50 clams should cover

it I thank you and the manatees thank

you yeah yeah Willie now do me a favor

you two and forget you ever met me it'll

be a pleasure Mr fat

rat all right we not only got Slim's 20

clams back but we got enough to pay for

a safe place for the manatees Mr fineas

fat rat doesn't know it yet but he

really did help the

manatees think there'll be enough left

over for some

[Music]

aspirin

[Music]

they sure look happy don't

they they sure do now they're safe from

the big boats and other Critters can

come and visit them anytime they want to

it sure would be nice if one day all

Critters took the time to think about

what might be under the water just

slowing down your boat might give am

Manatee time to get out of the way then

we'd all be a lot better

off well we better get back to Big ow
