Well, he's just a... He's a crackerjack is what he is.

- She's right. You're doggone right. - Nothing but trouble, that guy.

- Horrid little being. - Bad luck!

Old happy feet better not show his face around here again.

I never believed That there was a rainbow

With a pot of gold at the end

I'm much too smart For fairy tales like that

Yet here I am again

I thought this time This time we're gonna make it

Why I thought so, I really don 't know

Maybe something in his eyes

Just told me so

Something in his eyes

Tell me lies

And I'll come runnin '

I must have lost my mind

I could close my eyes

And tell you Just exactly what's comin '

Life's gonna turn

Just a little unkind

Seems like everyone's sailin ' Way out on the sea

And I'm stuck here on the shore

Sun 's always shinin ' But it's never for me

Why should I try anymore?

Tell me lies, tell me lies

I'll just keep right on comin '

This time I've got To believe

In the dream

This time I've got

To believe

In his dream

Tillie!

You know, you can still catch him at the bus stop.

Danny! Wait! Danny!

So I guess it's just you and me tonight, buddy.

Hey, did you hear about that disaster down at Mammoth Pictures?

Oh, boy! What were those animals thinking?

I mean, what a bunch of noodleheads.

No offense. I'm not calling you a noodlehead.

It's just that they don't belong in pictures.

They belong back on the farm.

Look at them out there. Poor fools. They ain't got no future.

What am I telling you for? You're heading home.

You're not trying to be something you ain't.

You're leaving this mess all behind.

You know your place. I mean, I know my place, you know.

It's here driving this bus. You know, you don't see me...

Stop the bus!

Jeez! What do you wanna stop for? We just barely got started.

Exactly. See you in the movies.

Hey, get off my property.

All of Hollywood is represented here tonight for the premiere of Lil Ark Angel.

How about a big hand for Joan Crawford, Cary Grant...

... W. C. Fields, Clark Gable and L.B. Mammoth?

L.B.!

Carry on.

Ladies and gentlemen, how about a big hand for Darla Dimple?

America 's sweetheart, lover of children and animals...

... and the star of tonight's gala Hollywood premiere, Lil Ark Angel!

Darla Dimple's handprints are enshrined in the forecourt of the Chinese Theater.

Ladies and gentlemen, we're all gonna gather inside the theater...

... to see the world premiere of Lil Ark Angel...

... starring Darla Dimple.

Oh, excuse me.

- Move! - Excuse me.

Can I just squeeze past, son?

Thank you very much.

Oh, so sorry.

They're in. The minute the movie ends, we go on.

Yea, as you walk through your valley of despair...

... fear not, for I am your Lil Ark Angel...

... and I will look after every little itty-bitty, teensy-weensy one of you.

Shoot me.

My radiant glow shall be a shining beacon to light the path for you poor...

... helpless animals.

I shall lift you out of the depths of despair.

My sweet cherubic voice will sing you a lullaby to soothe your fears.

Think of me as your guardian. Fear not...

... for I, the Lil Ark Angel...

It's almost time. I'll go set the lights.

Check.

The weatherman says it's going to rain for 40 days and 40 nights.

Hark, here comes a big fat rain cloud.

Danny. Look behind you, Danny.

Danny.

Here, kitty, kitty, kitty.

Nice kitty, kitty.

How does the kitty cat go?

Meow?

Very good.

Danny, the movie's over! Everybody's leaving! We gotta...

You're a mess.

Do you really love me?

Ladies and gentlemen.

Wait!

Pl... Please, take your seats.

Today we've come to honor Miss Darla Dimple.

And because Darla Dimple cares, she's arranged a special treat for you.

Have I?

A special live show with an all-animal cast.

- Not this guppy. - Yeah. No, I'm with her.

Come on, Sawyer.

Unheard of, yes, of course, but not for "America's sweetheart...

...Iover of children and animals."

Max?

No, no, no. Now, don't try to share the credit.

You're the one who wanted us to perform for L.B.

And I wouldn't dream of performing without my frie...

l... l...

Silly cat. Run along now. Skit scat, Mr. Kitty Cat.

Isn't he cute? Run along and play, Mr. Kitty.

Sawyer?

We're all behind you, Danny. One hundred percent.

- Don't let them go. - I got them.

- Let go! Have you lost your mind? - Release me, you mad hippo!

- Wait! - One big happy family!

- Just a minute. - "You will meet with disaster!"

- Would you listen? - I'll chew your ears...

- Cranston! - "The end is near! Fat lady's sung!"

Look, if you're willing to accept what they think of you, then you can go.

I almost did.

Well, you should have. Life here for animals is the pits.

We're always playing the scapegoat.

- Quickly forgotten. - Working for scale.

Then why are you still here?

Because you can't forget the feeling, can you?

The feeling you have when you two dance together...

...when you play...

...when you sing.

They cursed you, humiliated you...

...even slammed the door in your face, but they still haven't made you forget.

Have they?

"They can smash your cookie...

...but you'll always have your fortune."

Come on. Let's go show them what we can do.

Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.

Well, it is kind of getting kind of more or less rather late.

You couldn't be more right. Hit it, Pudge!

Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen If you would be so kind

I've got someone very special here She's about to speak her mind

I've got a song to sing

If you don 't like my song I'm gonna sing it anyhow

And I got a dream in my heart

- Nothing's gonna stop us now - Nothing's gonna stop us now

You take four and 20 blackbirds And bake them in a pie

Before you put 'em in the oven You know they're gonna fly

And they'll get you

They say curiosity killed the cat I'm living proof that that's a lie

- Now I'm gonna tell you why - Now I'm gonna tell you why

Nothing's gonna stop us Nothing's gonna stop us

- Nothing's gonna stop us now - Gonna stop us now

Nothing's gonna stop us Nothing's gonna stop us

Nothing's gonna stop us now

- lf I wanna dance, I'll dance - She'll dance

Just as long as the law will allow

Dance and sing all night long

'Cause nothing's gonna stop us now

- No, no, no one can stop us now - Nothing's gonna stop us

Nothing's gonna stop us Nothing's gonna stop us

Nothing's gonna stop us Nothing's gonna stop us

No, no, no, no, no Yeah, yeah, yeah

Look for me Where there's the smell of danger

The smell of danger is my middle name

I've been very quiet But I've got a lot to say

Believe me

If you ain 't going with us Then stay out of our way

Been knocked down, cut down Locked down, shut down

- Held down, fell down - Every time

Been pushed back, bushwhacked Denied a contract

When you got yours You must have got mine

- Nothing's gonna stop us - Nothing's gonna stop us

- Nothing's gonna stop us - Nothing's gonna stop us

I got a feeling inside

And it's love, without a doubt

- I got someone I'm crazy about - He's simply mad about her
