Lyrics

Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah dah dah
 Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah
 Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah dah dah
 Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah
 Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah dah dah
 Who who wah dah
 Who who
 Now think of an elephant lumbering through.
 Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah dah dah
 Horton!
 Yes, Horton!
 Horton Hears a Who!
 On the fifteenth of May
 In the jungle of Nool
 In the heat of the day,
 In the cool of the pool,
 He was splashing
 Splash!
 Enjoying the jungle's great joys
 When Horton the elephant
 Horton the Elephant
 Horton the elephant
 Heard a small noise.
 So Horton stopped splashing
 He looked toward the sound
 That's funny.
 Thought Horton-
 There's no one around.
 Then he heard it again
 Just a very faint yelp
 As if some tiny person were calling for help
 Help! Help!
 I'll help you
 Said Horton
 But who are you, and where?
 He looked and he looked.
 He could see nothing there
 But a small speck of dust
 Blowing past...
 Through the air.
 I say! How confusing!
 I've never heard tell
 Of a small speck of dust that is able to yell,
 So you know what I think?
 Why I think that there must be
 someone on top of that small speck of dust.
 Some poor little person
 Who's shaking with fear
 That he'll blow in the pool!
 He has no way to steer!
 He's alone in the universe!
 I'll just have to save him
 Because after all,
 A person's a person, no matter how small.
 A person's a person no matter how-
 Small... Who who wah dah
 Who who who wah dah dah dah
 Who who wah dah
 Who who
 So, gently, and using
 The greatest of care,
 The elephant stretched
 His great trunk through the air,
 And he lifted the dust speck
 And carried it over
 And placed it down,
 Safe!
 On a very soft clover.
