The Mayor of Whoville a man named McDodd
who's devoted and faired and a little bit odd.
The Mayor and his wife they had children to spare.
96 daughters, some here and some there.
96 girls to love, 96 girls to teach.
But the Mayor had only few second for each.
Daddy, I do better than best on my whostory test.
Ah, whostory. I remembered well.
That's one of my girls.
Her is has been using my hairbrush?
Her is has been using my hairbrush.
Look, over there!
There, all better.
Can I please have whophone, daddy?
Everyone else in my class has one.
Oh, really? Everyone?
- Aw! I will think about it. - Daddy, look! Daddy look!
Toos!
It's a "th" sweetheart. It's "Tooth"
In Whoville tradition unlike yours or mine
Mayor's oldest is the next Mayor of line.
And who was the oldest lead and stand tall?
It was JoJo, his son, the smallest who all.
So, JoJo, what's what's shaking?
What's happening? What's the world?
Now to you or to me, it's abundantly clear
that JoJo did not want his father's career.
But the Mayor pressed forward completely deluded.
And JoJo just sat there in silence and lude it.
Oh, JoJo!
- Hey! Why this he get more time? - That's not fair!
Son! Hey!
And why didn't he speak?
Well I think the leg was afraid if he did,
he might let down his dad.
