00:01:47I have it.
00:02:00Don't I look beautiful?
00:02:08Can you hear me?
00:02:14My dear, dear tummy.
00:02:35Mr. Tubby, wow!
00:02:55Once upon a time, there was an orchestra, which was busy tuning up.
00:02:59First, the oboe gave his aid to the strings, woodwinds, to the brass.
00:03:23Up and around the scales, they raced helter-skelter, faster and faster.
00:03:33All but Tubby the tuba, a fat little tuba, puffing away, but oh so slow.
00:04:06Ladies and gentlemen, tonight we rehearse a new composition.
00:04:16Oh no, not again.
00:04:19What's the matter, Tubby?
00:04:23Um-pah.
00:04:24Well, isn't that what you always play?
00:04:27Oh, Pee-wee, don't you understand?
00:04:31Every time we do a new piece, you all get such pretty tunes to play.
00:04:36But I, nothing but boom-pah, boom-pah all the time.
00:04:44But Tubby, people never write melodies for tubas.
00:04:47It just isn't done.
00:04:58First, the violins dance the lovely little tune on their strings.
00:05:07Here, catch!
00:05:09Got it!
00:05:19My turn!
00:05:39My turn!
00:05:41My turn!

00:06:11Watch me, darling. Catch me.
00:06:29Gotcha!
00:06:34Oh, Tommy, you're sitting on me!
00:06:44You clumsy fool!
00:06:49I'm sorry, Miss Fiddle.
00:06:52Fiddle? Well, really?
00:06:55You will please address us as violins. Fiddle, indeed.
00:07:02Tubby, what is the matter?
00:07:04Please, sir. I thought it would be so nice to dance with the pretty little tune,
00:07:09instead of going oom-pa, oom-pa all the time.
00:07:16Dance! Dance! Well, really?
00:07:27Dance!

00:12:27The End
00:13:02Hey, tubby!
00:13:04Meet the best idea you've ever had.
00:13:07Listen!
00:13:11Why don't you join the circus?
00:13:16Join the circus?
00:13:18Me?
00:13:19Why not?
00:13:20It's more fun than going oom-pa all the time.
00:13:25But what about my little melody?
00:13:27What little melody?
00:13:29Forget it!
00:13:30Tummy melodies are not for tubers.
00:13:34Why don't you face it?
00:13:36You want to be somebody?
00:13:37Huh?
00:13:38Huh?
00:13:38All right, then.
00:13:39Join the circus.
00:13:43Well?
00:13:45But what would I do?
00:13:47I'm not very talented.
00:13:49Why, that's easy, tubby.
00:13:51You could be a bareback rider.
00:13:56A lion tamer.
00:13:58A clown.
00:14:02A juggler.
00:14:05And a crowbat.
00:14:10You could be anything your heart desires.
00:14:18Why?
00:14:19You're the most wonderful idea I've ever had.
00:14:22Come on, let's go.
00:14:23Come on, let's go.
00:14:53Oh!
00:14:54Oh!
00:14:55See you there!
00:14:55Heave!
00:14:57Heave!
00:14:59Fire!
00:15:08Huh?
00:15:12Oh!
00:15:16See you there!
00:15:18Heave!
00:15:19Heave!
00:15:21Fire!
00:15:23Sir?
00:15:27Wilder!
00:15:30Sir?
00:15:31Yes, sir?
00:15:41Yes?
00:15:44Mr. Pepperino?
00:15:45I have that honor.
00:15:47What can I do for you, my flat little friend?
00:15:52Tell him.
00:15:53Tell him you want to join the circus.
00:15:55I want to join the circus.
00:15:59Very interesting.
00:16:05I've got it.
00:16:09Ah, my fat little friend, I have just a job for you.
00:16:14Wow.
00:16:15My elephants are always very thirsty.
00:16:20So, your job, B2.
00:16:23Make sure that the elephants have enough water to drink.
00:16:32Congratulations.
00:16:42Do you know how many buckets of water it takes to fill an empty elephant?
00:16:50Oh, more than that.
00:17:14Oh, more than that.
00:17:16I think we've had quite enough water to drink.
00:17:18At least for now.
00:17:20Oh, thank you.
00:17:25Bobby, the circus is about to start.
00:17:28Why don't you take a pee?
00:17:30You deserve it.
00:17:33You deserve it.
00:17:38Wow.
00:17:46Ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please.
00:17:56Super Tumper is the great big show you're going to see.
00:17:59Stupendous is the word for it, I proudly guarantee.
00:18:04Spectacular, sensational, I don't exaggerate.
00:18:08Incredible, remarkable, or maybe I mean great.
00:18:12Death-defying acrobats will take your breath away.
00:18:16The man who rides the bike up there will make you look away.
00:18:20Then out will come the elephants in baggy saggy pants.
00:18:24They'll choose their favorite partners and go right into their dance.
00:18:32The most ferocious animals will do their tricks for you.
00:18:37The sawdust on the circus floor will be red, white, and blue.
00:18:41Just watch the clowns go hippity-hot, the horses clippity-clop.
00:18:45The greatest show on earth will make your heart go flippity-flop.
00:18:49So exciting and so wonderful, astoundingly incredible,
00:18:53remarkably sensational, amazingly fantastical,
00:18:56adventurous and moisterous, delirious and glamorous,
00:19:00hilarious and glorious.
00:19:06Well, take your breath away!
00:19:22And now...
00:19:30Excuse me.
00:19:32Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:19:34Oops.
00:19:35Sorry.
00:19:36Oh, oh, dear.
00:19:37Oh, my.
00:19:38Oh, dear.
00:19:41Hey, Tummy!
00:19:42Look at me!
00:19:45Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
00:20:12Hey, Tubby, you'd be a sight to see.
00:20:17Come on up, Tubby, this is fun.
00:20:20Here I come.
00:20:29See how easy it is?
00:20:31Come on.
00:20:34Easy, easy.
00:20:39That's it, Tubby, you're doing fine.
00:20:43Watch it! Watch it! Watch it!
00:21:05Hey, Tubby, you forgot your hat!
00:21:08Ha ha!
00:21:11No!
00:21:13Me!
00:21:14Out!
00:21:15Out!
00:21:17Out!
00:21:17Get out!
00:21:22Flash Professor, girl!
00:21:23Mother!
00:21:42Cheer up, Tubby. Things aren't that bad, honey.
00:21:45Oh, let's face it. I'm a failure at everything.
00:21:51No, Tommy. No, honey. You just tried to be the wrong thing. That's all.
00:21:57Now you listen to me. Be yourself. You can't be anybody else. Be yourself.
00:22:08That's my advice to you or else you'll always be a nobody.
00:22:12So be yourself or else.
00:22:17Oh, hippopotamus would look very curious, flying like a fucker's lamb.
00:22:28A fierce and hungry lion would look very silly, trying to bake an apple pie.
00:22:38I think you'd get a laugh if you saw a tall giraffe swinging by his tail from a tree.
00:22:46I think an octopus would look quite ridiculous, knitting sweaters at the bottom of the sea.
00:22:57So be yourself. And do the things that you know best. Be yourself. I think that you'll be happiest by
00:23:11being no one else but you.
00:23:14Ha, ha, ha! I get the idea, Tubby!
00:23:18Uh-huh!
00:23:19A kangaroo in kilts with a penguin up on stilts.
00:23:24A walking down fifth avenue.
00:23:29A dirt traffic pop. Whistling autos to our stop.
00:23:34What's the city coming to?
00:23:39I'd like to see your face if a duck sold second base at the Yankee Stadium.
00:23:48Jump!
00:23:49A sleepy fucker doll would make everybody smile.
00:23:55Chewing blisperly up on some bubble gum.
00:24:01So I'll be myself.
00:24:05And do the things that I do best. I'll be myself.
00:24:11I think that I'd be happiest by being no one else but me.
00:24:18But, but, Mrs. Elephant, the only thing I do best is oom-pah.
00:24:25What's so wonderful about that?
00:24:27Hmm. Well, let's hear it.
00:24:30There must be something we can do with an oom-pah.
00:24:34Well, all right.
00:24:42See what I mean?
00:24:43Oh, no! Oh, no! Don't stop! Keep playing! Keep playing!
00:24:50Oh, Tubby! That oom-pah! It turns me off!
00:24:55It makes me want to dance!
00:24:58Ooh!
00:25:00Ooh!
00:25:01Ooh!
00:25:02Tubby!
00:25:02What a marvelous dance step for an elephant!
00:25:06Ooh!
00:25:16Is that fat little tuba still here?
00:25:19I'll...
00:25:20Don't you shoosh me!
00:25:22Watch!
00:25:24Watch!
00:25:24And listen!
00:25:33What is this?
00:25:35Never have I seen the elephants dance so beautifully!
00:25:39What has happened?
00:25:42What has happened?
00:25:51I-I-I-I was just leaving!
00:25:54Leaving? Why?
00:25:57Huh?
00:25:58My dear, dear, Tubby!
00:26:01I am a genius!
00:26:04I have the most wonderful, sensational idea!
00:26:08How would you and your oh-so-graceful elephants like to be the main attraction of my circus?
00:26:18Huh?
00:26:18Here is a contract!
00:26:21Sign here!
00:26:22Just a moment, Tubby!
00:26:24One minute, my dear boy!

00:26:32Aha!

00:26:49Now will you sign!
00:26:51Tubby!
00:26:51I knew it!
00:26:52I knew it!
00:26:52I just knew it!
00:26:54I knew Pa was good for something!
00:26:57Fantastic!
00:26:58Absolutely fantastic!
00:27:00Ladies and gentlemen, I have the greatest honor to present for the first time anywhere,
00:27:13the great Tubby!

00:29:42Oh, thank you.
00:29:44We want honey! We want honey!
00:29:47Honey, listen, Lord, listen.
00:29:49They want you, honey, they want you, they really want you.
00:29:52Please want tubby! Please want tubby!
00:29:55Please want tubby! Please want tubby!
00:30:00Please want tubby!
00:30:10Hey, did you hear what's happened to tubby?
00:30:13He's a big star in the circus now, and he did it with his oompa.
00:30:17Maybe next time you won't laugh at him.
00:30:30I'mΡΠΊΠΈΠΌ!
00:30:32I'm
00:31:34Mr. Chubby, what's the secret of your success?
00:31:37How do you make that marvelous oomph-a?
00:31:42It's really very simple.
00:31:45First you take an oomph, then you take a pa.
00:31:48You put the boat together, you get oomph-a-pa.
00:31:52Oomph-a-pa.
00:31:54Don't forget to say the oomph before you say the pa.
00:31:58What good is an oomph without that little pa?
00:32:02All together now.
00:32:02Oomph-a-pa.
00:32:04Oomph-a-pa.
00:32:06Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.

00:33:07Pee-wee!
00:33:11Pee-wee!
00:33:12Ah, there's my car.
00:33:13Long old chap, I'll give you a lift.
00:33:20Circus James, please.
00:33:21Very good, Mr. Tubby, sir.
00:33:26Mr. Tubby, wow!
00:33:29You've come a long way, Tubby.
00:33:31Huh?
00:33:32Oh, yes, yes, I suppose I have.
00:33:34Uh, how does it feel to be back home?
00:33:38Not bad.
00:33:39Not bad, old boy.
00:33:41Of course, it doesn't compare with London, Paris, Bangkok, Rome, Hong Kong, Singapore.
00:33:46You're gonna jab her all day?
00:33:48But Pee-wee's my best friend.
00:33:50I can't just ignore him.
00:33:51And your new act, you can't ignore that either.
00:33:54Okay, okay.
00:33:56Uh, look, uh, Pee-wee, I'm breaking in a new act tonight, and I really have to...
00:34:01Why don't you, uh, look over some of my scrapbooks?
00:34:04I won't be long.
00:34:06Here, read about how they loved me and told you.
00:34:17Oh, look, Tubby, the good old concert hall, remember?
00:34:22Oh, yes, hmm, interesting.
00:34:24The orchestra ought to see you now, huh, Tubby, huh?
00:34:28Oh, are they, by the way?
00:34:29Oh, James.
00:34:30At your service, Mr. Tubby?
00:34:32Have some passes sent over to the orchestra, will you please, James?
00:34:35Uh, the best in the circus.
00:34:37Splendid, Mr. Tubby, sir.
00:34:38They'll appreciate that, Tubby.
00:34:41Yes, I know.
00:34:42We won't be playing at the concert hall this week.
00:34:45Going on tour?
00:34:46How nice.
00:34:48Well, not exactly.
00:34:49You see, Tubby, the whole orchestra is leaving tomorrow for the Singing City,
00:34:54where everybody has a melody all his own.
00:34:58And we're going to choose the best tunes there and play them next season.
00:35:03About time they played something besides Beethoven's.
00:35:07Well?
00:35:09Well, what?
00:35:10Tubby, what about that little melody you were going to find and play someday?
00:35:17Huh?
00:35:18Oh, oh, oh, that.
00:35:20Yes, that.
00:35:22Remember what you said once to me, Pee-wee?
00:35:26But, Tubby, people never write melodies for tubas.
00:35:28It just isn't done.
00:35:31But maybe somebody in that city has a melody for a tuba.
00:35:35It'd be better than an umpah, wouldn't it?
00:35:37I happen to have the most famous umpah in the world.
00:35:41Ah, here we are at last.
00:35:42We want Tubby!
00:35:44We want Tubby!
00:35:45We want Tubby!
00:35:47We want Tubby!
00:35:48We want Tubby!
00:35:50We want Tubby!
00:35:50We want Tubby!
00:35:51We want Tubby!
00:35:55Here, old boy, be my guest tonight.
00:35:58Uh, best seat in the house.
00:36:01We will be...
00:36:06Ah, my good friend Pepperino.
00:36:08Everything ready for the new act?
00:36:10Yes.
00:36:10Yes, what, but first we must talk.
00:36:19Any tickets left?
00:36:21No, standing room only in the gallery.
00:36:30Tubby?
00:36:33Tubby?
00:36:34Son, we don't think you should do your new act tonight.
00:36:37Why not?
00:36:38It's sensational.
00:36:39No, no, sir.
00:36:40It's too dangerous.
00:36:43I can do it.
00:36:44And if you're too scared, I'll do it myself.
00:36:47Excuse me.
00:36:48I must get ready.
00:36:51Oh, Tubby, I beg you.
00:36:52I beg you, honey, not to do the new act.
00:36:55Beg?
00:36:57Pepperino does not beg.
00:37:00I order you not to do the new act.
00:37:03Won't you change your mind, please?
00:37:06I'm sorry, Mrs. Elephant.
00:37:08My mind's made up.
00:37:09And that's...
00:37:11Final.
00:37:15That's our cue.
00:37:17You'd better go and announce the great new act.
00:37:19Big shot.
00:37:21All right.
00:37:22But just one little thing, my fat little friend.
00:37:25Never, never in all my life have I seen such a big, swelled-up head.
00:37:31Not even on a tuba.
00:37:34And that's final two.
00:37:36I declare to goodness, Tubby.
00:37:38I don't know what's got into you.
00:37:41And just when everything was going so well, huh?
00:37:45That's us.
00:37:46That's us.
00:37:47Let's go.
00:37:53Ladies and gentlemen of all ages,

00:39:29These ferocious beasts
00:39:31have not been fed
00:39:33for three days.
00:39:40I think I'm going to faint.
00:39:43There it is.
00:39:44There it goes.
00:39:45There it is.
00:39:55You can look now, buddy.
00:39:57We made it.

00:43:14Oh, yeah, Shelby, yeah!

00:43:34No!
00:43:35No!
00:43:36No!
00:43:36How do we get that idiot out of the cave?
00:43:39Be quiet.
00:43:40Be quiet.
00:43:40I'm thinking.
00:43:41Let's see.
00:43:42Uh-oh.
00:43:43Oh!
00:43:44Ha-ha-ha-ha!
00:43:45I have it!
00:43:46I have it!
00:43:49Okay.
00:43:51You're the boss.
00:43:55Oh!
00:43:57Thank you, Samson.
00:44:09There's gonna be no shower!
00:44:10I'm gonna get aad of her!
00:44:11There's gonna be no shower!
00:44:12There's gonna be no shower!
00:44:13You're the wind!
00:44:17You're the wind!
00:44:25Mm, it's a hot!
00:44:26I'll put it in the wind!
00:44:28And they'll pull the wind!
00:44:29Take a bow, Tubby. Take a bow. I said bow.
00:44:43Come on, Tubby. Act like a star. Bow.
00:44:48Hey, Tubby! Don't catch cold!
00:45:01The exit is there.
00:45:04Oh, yes, sir. Thank you.
00:45:10Ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please.
00:45:16Tonight, a new star has been born.
00:45:21This is Elephant.
00:45:30Good old Mrs. Elephant. You deserve it.
00:45:52Hey, Tubby, where are you?
00:45:55Pee-wee! You saw?
00:45:57Yep.
00:45:58Oh, no.
00:46:00Pee-wee?
00:46:01Uh-huh?
00:46:03Pee-wee, I've been a stuck-up fathead. I'm sorry.
00:46:07Oh, skip it.
00:46:09Oh, come on, Tubby. Cheer up. Remember what I once told you?
00:46:13Things could be bad. Things could be better. Things could be bad.
00:46:18And they could be worse.
00:46:20Oh, Pee-wee. I'm a flop, a failure, a fizzle.
00:46:25Oh, cut it out, Tubby. Come back to the orchestra and forget about all this.
00:46:32Oh, Pee-wee. My oom-pa playing days are over. I need something more than that.
00:46:38It's still that melody you really want, isn't it, Tubby?
00:46:48Tubby, I've got it. Don't you remember I told you that the whole orchestra is going to the singing city
00:46:53to find new melodies to play?
00:46:56Do you really think?
00:46:57Who knows?
00:46:58Come on, Tubby. The orchestra bus leaves in a few hours. We'll have to hurry.
00:47:02But supposing I don't find one?
00:47:04Then you'll just have to keep on looking until you do. Come on.
00:47:23Hi, everybody. Look who's here.
00:47:25Well, if it isn't the great circus star.
00:47:31Heard you laid an egg last night.
00:47:36Welcome back, Tubby.
00:47:38All right, driver. Let's be off.
00:47:41Cheer up, Tubby.
00:47:43When the buds begin to pop
00:47:46And the robin takes a hop
00:47:49Everybody says it's spring today
00:47:53I suppose that may be so
00:47:55But I'd like for you to know
00:47:57I can always tell it's spring another way
00:48:02I can always tell it's spring
00:48:05When there's laughter in the air
00:48:07It makes me want to sing
00:48:09When the world is free from care
00:48:11Put your smile back into place
00:48:13Let your heart go tra-la-la
00:48:15You'll have springtime on your face
00:48:17When you blow that oom-pah
00:48:35Look, Tubby. There it is.
00:48:45The whole city sang
00:48:47Clocks tick-tocked and rang their bells
00:48:54The little houses were fat and skinny
00:48:57And puffed songs through their chimney pipes
00:49:14And harem scarum
00:49:16All the crooked and straight little streets
00:49:18Came running and bumping into each other
00:49:24eggε
00:49:27Who's over here?
00:49:33Who's over there?
00:49:36Who's over there?
00:49:45THE END
00:50:13Ah, welcome, welcome, welcome. A little refreshment before we start the festivities.
00:50:26Let us tell you what we'll tell you, fruits and candies and tomatoes, too.
00:50:33We will see as long as we will do.
00:50:42Oh, a round little penny for a round little berry.
00:50:48My strawberries are very red, my strawberries are very red.
00:50:53Buy my cabbage heads instead, buy my cabbage heads instead.
00:50:58Candy on a stick is very sticky, candy on a stick is very sticky.
00:51:06Buy an orange, squeeze an orange.
00:51:17And now, ladies and gentlemen, I will announce you.
00:51:26Hear ye! Hear ye!
00:51:29Can you hear me?
00:51:32Don't you dare go off in a huff.
00:51:35I know I'm singing loud enough.
00:51:40Prince Cello and all the ladies and gentlemen of the great orchestra.
00:51:45The orchestra has come to the city to find new melodies next season to play.
00:51:53All orphan tunes are invited to the ball
00:51:57For the prince to choose the fairest of them all.
00:52:02Hear ye! Hear ye!
00:52:05Here they come!
00:52:18First, the woodwinds.
00:52:42His Highness, Prince Cello.
00:52:54Oh, Celeste, isn't he handsome?
00:53:00And now, the great ladies in their gleaming dresses, the violin.
00:53:06Oh, Celeste.
00:53:09Oh, Celeste.
00:53:15Isn't he handsome?
00:53:22The golden trumpets, trombones, and French horns.
00:53:40The double bass.
00:53:50And last of all, the xylophone.
00:54:03For you.
00:54:06To be the tabba.
00:54:09Oh, enter.
00:54:32Who's that?
00:54:34One of the orphan melodies.
00:54:36What's her name?
00:54:38Celeste.
00:54:39Like the instrument?
00:54:40That's right, because she sounds just like one.
00:54:49See what I mean?
00:54:53Celeste.
00:54:54Oh, she's beautiful.
00:55:03That's the terrible Miss Squeak.
00:55:05She runs the orphanage.
00:55:17I sure hope your orchestra adopts all those orphan melodies.
00:55:22Well now, Sonny, you'd better skedaddle to that palace or you'll miss the contest in the ball.
00:55:26That-a-way.
00:55:29Poor little Celeste.
00:55:35Oh, no, you're not going to the ball.
00:55:39Nobody would ever choose a silly, tinkling tune like you.
00:55:51All right, my dears.
00:55:53All right, my dears.
00:55:53Is everybody ready?
00:55:55Yes, Miss Squeak.
00:55:57All right, my dears.
00:55:59We are off to the ball.
00:56:16I wonder if I'm pretty, I think it's such a pity to be a melody like me.
00:56:29The loneliest tune in the city.
00:56:34I wish the prince would say, come dance with me, I pray.
00:56:41But who would ever dance perchance with the loneliest tune in the city?
00:57:16I wish the prince would say, come dance with me.
00:57:19Tubby, where have you been?
00:57:21I got lost.
00:57:23Pee-wee, I found her.
00:57:24The most beautiful melody in the world.
00:57:27Oh, sure, sure, sure, Tubby.
00:57:28But come on, those orphan melodies will be here any minute now.
00:57:55Hi, Tubby.
00:57:56Dressed from the ball, I see.
00:57:59Ho, ho, ho.
00:58:09Disgrace.
00:58:13Boy, you know something, Tubby?
00:58:15You really are a mess.
00:58:17Here, see if we can tidy you up a bit.
00:58:25Ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please.
00:58:30Presenting Miss Squeak and her orphan tunes who compete in the contest very, very soon.
00:58:44Wow, plenty to choose from, huh, Tubby?
00:58:50Marching tunes.
00:58:54Dancing tunes.
00:58:57Whistling tunes.
00:58:59I've already chosen mine.
00:59:01You have?
00:59:02Which one?
00:59:04I don't see her.
00:59:06Maybe she didn't come.
00:59:08Well, go find out, you nanny.
00:59:13Lovely ball, isn't it?
00:59:17Miss Squeak, where is Celeste?
00:59:19In a dark, empty closet, where she belongs.
00:59:24All right, now, we must mingle with the guests, my dear.
00:59:37Well, are you just going to sit there?
00:59:41What else can I do?
00:59:43Do?
00:59:44Do?
00:59:45Do what any hero would do.
00:59:47Go to the rescue.
00:59:55Charge!
01:00:06Come on!
01:00:15Time for the square dance, everybody!
01:00:21Choose your partners, do-si-do.
01:00:23Strike up the music, and away we go.
01:00:34Trumpets, hop and skip with your tunes.
01:00:43Violins, now pluck your strings.
01:00:55Passoo, now dance with Ole Miss Squeak.
01:01:04Slap that bass.
01:01:07Trumbo slide.
01:01:12Slap that bass.
01:01:14Slap that bass.
01:01:15Slap that bass.
01:01:15You're much too slow.
01:01:17How fast can you go?
01:01:38Hear ye!
01:01:40Hear ye!
01:01:41Can you hear me?
01:01:42Prince Jello is ready to judge every tune.
01:01:47Make way for the prince as he enters the room.
01:02:07ΒΆΒΆ
01:02:30Come on! They've probably started the contest by now!
01:02:36The first tune of the contest will be Miss Mary Scherzo!
01:02:43Miss Mary Scherzo!
01:02:49Miss Mary Scherzo!
01:02:50Miss Mary Scherzo!
01:02:50Miss Mary Scherzo!

01:04:45Celeste! Stand away from the door!
01:04:49Ready! Aim! Blow!
01:04:58Come on, Celeste! No time to lose! Gee!

01:06:35I said, next, please.
01:06:38Hmm.
01:06:39There being no other tunes,
01:06:41I hereby declare the contest to be closed.
01:06:44No, it isn't.
01:06:45It is now my great pleasure to present Celeste.
01:06:59Celeste, how dare you come to the ball?
01:07:03You leave her alone.
01:07:04Why, you fat little, impudent little...
01:07:14All orphan tunes are welcome here.
01:07:17Let her sing.
01:07:22Dobby, where have you been?
01:07:48Oh, no.
01:07:52Excuse me, your highness,
01:07:54but I choose Celeste as my melody.
01:07:58Oh!

01:08:54Thank you, Tommy.
01:08:59Goodbye.
01:09:03Please, Celeste, may I have this dance?
01:09:07A pleasure, Your Highness.

01:14:03May I?
01:14:04Why, of course.
01:14:08Yeah, I'll hold the music for you.
01:14:47Say, you're a very fine tuba.
01:14:50Do you know it?
01:14:52Here, why don't you try this with your orchestra sometime?
01:14:57Oh, I couldn't.
01:15:00Oh, balderdash.
01:15:03Besides, you've been doing me a favor.
01:15:06How many bullfrogs ever get a composition performed by a real symphony orchestra?
01:15:11Well, if you put it that way.
01:15:16Oh, thank you.

01:26:45Once upon a time, there was an orchestra, which was busy tuning up.

01:27:02to the brass.
