Rock-A-Doodle Page #4

- Yeah, thanks a million.

This has been most enlightening.

- Penguin suits, two for a dollar.

You wanna see the King, come

and get your penguin suits.

Remember, no dogs, cats, birds or meeses.

- "Dear Chanticleer, we're sorry.

"Come home, your friends."

Here guys, come on, sign this.

Here.

- Must you bother me whilst I dine?

- Snipes, sign this.

- Oh heavens.

Where have you been all my life?

Lasagna a la pasta.

- Just sign it.

- Ah, sure.

- Excuse me, sir, would you please

see that the King gets this?

- Yeah, it's really important.

- Oh, and waiter?

We asked for light cola,

this stuff weighs a ton!

- Hmm.

Get me the boss.

- It sounds bad, Pinky.

- It's only a little bad, not a big bad.

Look, he's lonely, he needs a friend.

And that bad little kitty

wants to steal him away.

You don't want that, do ya?

- [Announcer] Ladies and gentlemen,

Pinky's Palace proudly presents the King!

- Thank you, thank you very much.

(cheering)

- [Patou] Would you look at that.

- Chanticleer?

Well down in Tupelo

I was so alone

I never had no money to

have no honey for my own

That's why I'm treasure hunting

Whaa-Oo

Treasure hunting for my love

He's treasure hunting for his love

Well I've been everywhere,

searching high and low

But I ain't found no rainbow

yet that had a pot of gold

Well, I'm treasure hunting

- You know, I think he died of fear.

- Hey, what are you doing little fella?

- Something I learned in school.

- Cats don't go to school.

- But boys do.

- Hey!

You boys is dead meat.

- Chanticleer!

Good King Neptune said

he'd help me find my treasure

Far below the sea

He introduced me to

every single purty mermaid

- Patou!

So I keep treasure hunting

- Do you promise no one gets hurt?

- No one gets hurt.

You just do the number, make him happy

and keep him away from

that bad little kitty!

Treasure hunting for my love

He's treasure hunting for his love

- Hey, there's no lobsters in this number.

Get them outta here!

Wait a minute, don't spoil the show, huh?

That treasure's all I'm thinking of

Thinking of, thinking of, thinking of

Well I got treasure hunting fever

Yeah-Ya

Well I got treasure hunting fever

Yeah-Ya

Well I got treasure hunting fever

Yeah-Ya

Well I got treasure hunting fever

For love

Treasure hunting fever

Yeah I got treasure hunting fever

For love

(applause)

- Now.

Deep deep, the trouble you're in

I've thrown you to the

sharks and you can't swim

- Oh no.

Well, you can take the

rooster out of the country

but you can't take the

country out of the rooster.

Old Chanticleer had found

himself a city perch

sorta tailored to remind him

of the farm he'd left behind.

Trouble was, with Goldie on the scene

he wasn't feelin' so

lonesome for us anymore,

which was exactly the way Pinky wanted it.

'Cause that was exactly the

way the Grand Duke wanted it.

There was just one problem

with their plan, of course.

Goldie was only supposed to pretend

to fall in love with Chanticleer,

but she was falling in love for real

and that can really change a pheasant.

Love has said hello, you don't know

What that means, really means to me

- Ooooh, I think we've lost him.

- What do you mean?

He's right there.

- Oh, no, no he ain't.

He's a thousand miles away.

- Huh?

(sighs)

- Isn't it romantic?

When roosters fall in

love, they lose all reason.

- Aaah, enough mush, let's go eat.

- Eat?

How can you think of

food at a time like this?

- Lasagna!

Mm-mm-mm-mm.

- Chanticleer, Chanticleer!

- Oh Goldie, when I left the farm,

I had such a big hole in my heart.

You coulda put a John Deere

tractor through there.

- Oh, you poor thing.

- My heart is so full I could,

I could just explode like a bloated lamb.

- Oh King, you say the nicest things.

- [Edmond] Chanticleer!

This song is our treasure

that we'll share our whole life through

- Chanticleer!

- I'm Sorry, Little Buddy,

but We're just no match

for that painted feather duster.

- Oh yeah?

- Uh, hey, where you goin'?

- Well if I can't talk

to him, I'll talk to her.

As I kiss and coo

Kiss, kiss and coo with you

- [Newsboy] Read all about it,

mysterious rains spreading!

Sun don't shine for farmers!

- "Goldie Pheasant to co-star

in King's new picture."

You know, I think I'm too

little to get over those gates.

- Well, I'm not.

- [Patou] Hey, I think that's

her trailer over there.

(humming)

(clears throat)

- Excuse me, ma'am?

(gasps)

- Oh, who are you?

- Ma'am, I, I--

(sneezes)

- Oh my goodness.

(sneezing continues)

Oh, you poor thing!

There, now what are you

doing in my dressing room?

- Please ma'am, you're the

only one who can help us.

We have to talk to Chanticleer.

I mean, the King.

There's a terrible flood, and

if he doesn't come home and crow...

- Wait a minute, wait a minute!

You're the bad little

kitty Pinky told me about.

- Bad, me?

I'm not bad.

- You go away or I'll scream!

(screams)

- Please, if you'd just listen--

(screaming)

What happened?

- Ah, she's a woman.

- W-what?

That's the last straw, I've had it!

- I wasn't talking to you--

Aah!

(Pinky laughing)

- Well, well, well.

The dog, the cat, the bird and the mouse.

We meet at last, eh?

(laughing)

- Let us go!

- Max, take 'em to my

trailer, lock 'em up.

Make sure the King doesn't

get a whiff of this.

- Oh no, what have I done?

(laughing)

- No dogs, cats, boids or meeses.

- Ahah!

- [Patou] Now I gotta admit,

as bad guys go, the Duke's

nephew Hunch was more a

hoot than he was horrible.

- (gurgling) Oh, boy.

- [Patou] But still, he was a nuisance

and as we were tied up at the moment,

we weren't all that happy to see him.

- Ahah!

I will always think of you

Ma, I miss your apple pie

Ma, I miss your stew

But most of all Ma, I miss you

Look at that, ooh, anticipation!

Ow!

Ah, oh!

(crashing)

Let's get away, you and me together

Two birds of a feather flying--

- [Pinky] Cut, cut, cut!

Murray, what's with the snow here?

Take five, everybody.

And Miss Pheasant, how 'bout a smile, hmm?

Oh, it's supposed to be

summer, for cryin' out loud!

- King, may I talk to you?

- Ah honey, don't pay no mind.

You're gonna do just fine.

- Yeah, but--

- Now, now, no buts about it, honey.

- King, I've done something awful.

- What is it, baby?

Patou, Snipes, Peepers.

Goldie, where'd you get this?

- From you, that night we first met.

- They were here?

- They're still here.

- Why didn't you tell me?

- 'Cause she wasn't supposed to!

(gasps)

Goldie, I'm disappointed in ya.

I said to entertain

him, not to educate him.

- Entertain me?

What's this all about?

- Calm down, kid, your

friends are just fine.

- No they're not, King.

He's got them tied up in his--

- Shut up!

- What?

Where are they?

What have you done with 'em?

- Don't hurt him boys,

he's got a movie to make.

- I ain't making nothin' with you.

- Oh but King, I got a lotta

money tied up in this picture.

I don't wanna lose my money,
