Lyrics[]

The Cat in the Hat: (spoken) From this box will emerge Thing Two and Thing One, and they can find anything under the sun.

(sung) It can be done, it can be done. They can do anything, anything, anything under the sun.

If your nerves are getting nervous and your house is topsy-turvus, they are always at your service. Thing Two and Thing One.

Thing One: Fish, fish, there's always one, some long-faced, sour-belly son of a gun.

Thing Two: There's always some fish, some sour-belly fish who's only one wish is to flatten the fun.

Both Things: Doesn't like fun, doesn't like fun. Good, clean, wholesome, innocent fun.

The Fish: (spoken) FBI? FBI? Listen, listen. I am a fish residing at 2322 Magnolia Boulevard and I want to report a Cat in the Hat. FBI! FBI! (comericial break) Somebody please answer! Where is everybody?

One of the Things: (in falsetto) Sorry, that line is temporarily out of order.

Thing Two: There's always some fish who doesn't like fun. Good, clean, wholesome, innocent fun.

The Cat in the Hat: They can find anything, anything under the sun.

Thing Two: This reactionary fish-faced louse doesn't like flyin' kites in the house.

The Cat in the Hat: They can find anything, anything under the sun!

Thing One and Thing Two: Of all the bigoted, bigoted bores, kites, he thinks, oughta fly outdoors.

The Cat in the Hat: Thing One and Thing Two, Thing Two and Thing One.

They can find anything, anything, anything under the sun.

Thing One: (spoken) Hello.

Thing Two: (spoken) Thank you.

Thing One: (spoken; in Thing Two's voice) 22, 37, 43, 10, 67, 21, 14, 8...hike! (sung) There's always some fish, some crotchety one.

Thing Two: (in Thing One's voice) There's always some fish, some blotchety one.

There's always some fish, some sour-belly fish. There's always some fish, some fish.

The Cat in the Hat: If your nerves are getting nervous and your house is topsy-turvus, they will both be at your service on the run.

They'll find my long lost, moss-covered, three-handled family gradunza, Thing... Two... and... Thing... One!
