Happy Feet
Once there was a way
To get back homeward
Are the stars out tonight?
Once there was a way to get back home
I only have eyes
Sleep, pretty darling, do not cry
For you
And I will sing a lullaby
With a song in my heart
So tell me
Tell me something good
Tell me that you love me
Tell me, baby
Tell me something good
Only you
But how can you know for sure?
Can make this world seem right
I need your love
So many songs, but I'm feeling so lonely.
Where is the love?
You don't have to be beautiful
To turn me on
I just need your body, baby
Hello
- From dusk till dawn
- Is it me you're looking for?
You don't need experience
Take
- To turn me out
- These broken wings
You just leave it all up to me
Let's talk about eggs, baby
Let's talk about you and me
You don't have to be rich
- Give me all your loving
- To be my pearl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular song
I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra- -
Boys. Boys.
Give a chick a chance.
Well, since my baby left me
It's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
And I said, "I'm feelin' so lonely, baby
I'm feelin' so lonely
Oh, I'm feelin' so lonely"...
I could die
Don't have to be rich to be my girl
Don't have to be cool to rule my world
You rule my world
You're the particular song
I'm compatible with
I just want your
- Extra time
- Extra time
- And your kiss
- And your kiss
His mom and dad met in the usual way.
The song became love...
... and love became the egg.
Memphis?
- You got it, sugar?
- Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Safe and warm.
Hold it tight, now.
Whoa, I think I felt a move in there.
And in the usual way...
... the moms left for the fishing season...
... while the dads stayed home
to do egg time.
You gonna be okay, Daddy?
Oh, sure, honey. We'll be waiting for you,
right here on Lonely Street.
I love you more and more, tell me why
Bye-bye, now.
Goodbye, Norma Jean.
Don't you worry about a thing.
Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye, boy
When all others leave...
...we remain!
When the sun vanishes...
...we remain!
I'm feelin' so lonely
I'm feelin' so lonely- -
Heed the wisdoms, brothers!
Make a huddle!
Warm thy egg!
Make a huddle!
- Share the cold!
- Share the cold.
Each must take his turn
against the icy blast...
...if we are to survive the endless night.
Raise your voices, brothers!
Give praise to the Great 'Guin...
... who puts songs in our hearts
and fish in our bellies!
Ain't no particular song
I'm more compatible with
Oh, baby, I think I wanna dance now.
No, no, no.
There is a wisdom,
brothers and sisters...
... that stands above all others.
- Never, ever...
- It's okay.
- ... no matter what...
- No harm done. See?
... drop your egg.
No, we're cool. We're cool.
Of the many thousands who sang
through that long night of winter...
... it was Memphis
who cried out most fervently...
... to turn the Earth
and bring back the sun.
- It's a boy!
- Hey, it's a girl!
- What a peach!
- What a bruiser!
- Come here, son.
- Come to Daddy, there you go.
Son, you have made
your daddy so proud.
It's all genetics, you know.
Memphis?
Is everything okay?
I don't know. I can't hear anything.
- Is it empty?
- Honey.
- Can I have it?
- Gloria.
It's okay, Maurice.
It happens sometimes, Memphis.
Yeah.
Wait, you hear that?
- Yeah.
- Hey, I can hear you, buddy.
Oh, your papa's here, it's okay.
Oh, he's okay, Maurice.
Whoa, there it is!
That's his little foot there.
There's his other one.
That's different.
Hey! Come back here, Mr. Mumble.
Gloria... .
She can call him
whatever the heck she likes.
Whoa, little Mumble.
- Mumble? Mumble?
- You okay?
Freezing. Freezing.
Oh, you'll get used to it.
Come on. Come to your daddy.
- What do you make of that?
- Little wobbly in the knees.
- Is he okay?
- I don't know.
What you doing there, boy?
I'm happy, Pa.
What you doing with your feet?
They're happy too.
- I wouldn't do that around folks, son.
- Why not?
- Well, it just ain't penguin, okay?
- Okay.
Yeah. Hey, come on over here.
Get under here. Get warm.
Watch the beak. Watch the beak-- Beak!
The beak.
Okay, good boy.
So late. What's keeping them?
Pray, brothers, the Great 'Guin
does not test us with a lean season.
Why, Noah? Have we not all been dutiful?
So when you see your mama... .
- I stand perfectly still.
- You got it.
But how will I know
which one's my mama?
Oh, you'll know.
She's got a wiggle in her walk
and a giggle in her talk.
And when she sings,
it darn near breaks your heart.
Hey, wait. I see them. I see them!
You're right! You're right!
Wives, ho!
Wives, ho!
Wives, ho!
Wait, no. Wait, no, Mumble, get back here.
No, Mumble! Get back-- Mumble!
Mumble! Mumble!
Mumble!
Michelle? Michelle?
- Roxanne?
- Michelle?
Alfie?
- Maurice!
- Michelle! Michelle!
Mommy!
Oh, she's so darling.
Excuse me. Pardon me, pardon me.
Mumble? Mumble?
Oh, Mumble.
- Mama?
- Mumble!
- Mama?
- Mumble!
Mumble!
Mama? Mama?
- Mumble, boy, where are you?
- Mama!
Memphis?
Oh, Mama. Oh, Mama.
- Oh, my.
- Daddy.
So where's the baby?
Well, honey, I'll find him.
- You lost the baby? Memphis!
- It's okay.
- Mama? Mama?
- Stay!
- Come to Mommy.
- No, Mumble.
Mama, Mama.
Hey, what's wrong with his feet?
Oh, that's just a little thing he's got going.
He'll grow out of it.
Mama!
Oh, Memphis, he's gorgeous.
- Isn't he, though?
- Look at you.
I got something for you.
Open up.
Oh, I love the way she does that.
W, X, Y and Z
Good morning, class.
Good morning, Miss Viola.
Right.
Well, today we begin with the most
important lesson you will ever learn...
...at Penguin Elementary.
Does anyone know what that is?
Anyone? Anyone?
Someone? Seymour?
- Fishing?
- No.
Mumble?
Don't eat yellow snow?
No, that's not it, no.
- It's our Heartsong, Miss.
- Thank you, Gloria. Excellent, yes.
Without our Heartsong,
we can't be truly penguin, can we?
No.
But, my dears, it's not something
that I can actually teach you.
Does anybody know why?
Anyone? Anyone?
You can't teach it to us, ma'am...
...because we have to find
our Heartsongs all by ourselves.
Well done, you.
It's the voice you hear inside...
...who you truly are.
Yes. Thank you, Gloria.
Excellent, lovely, thank you.
So let's all be very still now.
Take a moment and let it come to you.
- I got one!
- Pick me!
- Pick me! Pick me!
- One at a time. Yes, Seymour.
Don't push me
'Cause I am close to the edge
I'm trying not to lose my head
Yes, I like that one. I could
really get jiggy with that. Lovely.
I'm ready. I got one.
Oh, I thought you might, Gloria.
Midnight creeps so slowly
Into hearts of those
Who need more than they get
Daylight deals a bad hand
To a penguin
Who has laid too many bets
That's as far as I got so far.
- Oh, yes, lovely. Really lovely.
- That's beautiful.
