Look at Him

look at him!

now then, children,
let's not make a fuss

look at him!

are you sure he's really one of us?

family likeness isn't strong,
still you won't poke fun.
all of you must get along--
he's a special son.

(IDA, spoken:)
Come along, all of you now, follow me.
But stay close to me at all times or you may get trodden on... and beware of the cat!

look at him--
legs are bandy
and the knees are knocked.
look at him

dad was obviously egg-shell-shocked

bet the neighbors scream and howl
when they see our brood.
he's the foulest waterfowl

why are you so rude?

DOWNY (spoken):
Ooh, touchy!

look at him!
come on, Ida, tell me what went wrong?
look at him!
did you leave him in the egg too long?

I admire you for your pluck
srictly "entre nous"
he may be no pin-up duck...
neither, dear, are you!

look at you, look at me
what's it matter?

DOWNY (spoken):
isn't it obvious?

why do I make you all laugh and scoff?

BEAKY (spoken):
have you seen your reflection?

why don't we play with the fishes?

because you'd scare them off!
(laughter)

look at him
you admit he is a bit extreme?

now our parents will start quibbling

look at him
just a variation on a theme

he's a truly ugly sibling

I don't want to see my son
left out on a limb
why is it that everyone has to jeer?

there's your answer, dear...

look at him!

peck, peck, peck, peck!
I hate to be picky
but the duck--peck, peck--
looks a little bit dicky!
look at him--sqwuak!--
did you ever see a pig with wings?
look at him--sqwuak!--don't genetics do the strangest things?
though the thought may not appeal
break the ties that bind
if you gave the cat a meal...
nobody would mind

look at him
he's an ugly one, there is no doubt
look at him
does he have his giblets inside-out?
what else would explain his looks
being quite so rough?
how on earth would gourmet cooks
know which end to stuff?!

look at him, look at us
see the difference
look at him, look at us
where's the match?

TURKEY & HENRIETTA:
sometimes we find it is kinder
if some eggs never hatch

look at him!
still a duckling
but there's so much more...
look at him!
finest cat food that I ever saw
better still he won't be missed--
they think he's a flop
maybe they'll let me assist
giving him the chop!

TURKEY (spoken):
now in a moment you will be presented to Her Grace... she is looked up to by both men and animal.

IDA (spoken):
Now, don't turn your toes in, just bow your head politely and say "Quack"

DUCKLINGS (individually)
quack! quack! quack! quack!

Honk!

look at him
now he's ruining our photograph

just imagine how he's feeling

look at him
mother nature must have had a laugh

in a way he's quite appealing

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
look at him

look at him
na na na na na na na na na

a relation one should sever

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
a relation one should sever
look at him!

look at him
na na na na na na na na na

he is gawky in whatever he does, oh
he really is an ugly oiseau

he's my son and I love him
do you see what you've done?
you're to blame
this duckyard would be so boring
if we all looked the same

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
look at him

look at him

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
and be thankful that he's not your kid

but we've got him as a brother

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
look at him

look at him

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
bound to go the way the dodo did

and he's worse than any other

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
bodywork designed to shock

la la la la la

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
prospects pretty dim

la la la la la

DRAKE/TURKEY/MAUREEN/HENRIETTA:
he should form a solo flock

look at him little thing
his neck just made to wring

look at him,
look at me,
look at you,
you'll agree
anywhere you look will be less grim
than a glimpse of this wimp of wimps...
look at him!!!
