Scarecrow: Did you hear that? He'll announce us at once. I've as good as got my brain.
Tin Man: I can fairly hear my heart beating.
Dick: I'll be home in time for supper.
Cowardly Lioness: In another hour. I'll be queen of the forest. Long live the queen! (Singing)
If I were queen of the forest
Not king
Not duke
Not prince
My regal robes of the forest
Would be satin
Not cotton
Not chintz
I'd command each thing
Be it fish or fowl
With a woof!
And a woof!
And a royal growl
As I'd click my heel
All the trees would kneel
And the mountains bow
And the bull kowtow
And the sparrow would take wing.
If I... If I were queen
Each rabbit would show respect to me
The chipmunks genuflect to me
Though my tail would lash
I would show compash
For every underling
If I...
If I were queen
Just queen (Dick, Scarecrowette, and Tin Man roll down the rug then they wrap her in rug like a royal cape. Tin Man breaks the flower pot with his axe making it look like a crown and placed it on Lioness's head) Monarch of all I survey
(Chuckling)
Monarch
Of all I survey
Dick, Scarecrowette, Tin Man bow to her.
Dick: Your majesty, If you were queen, you wouldn't be afraid of anything?
Cowardly Lioness: Not nobody, not nohow!
Tin Man: Not even a rhinoceros?
Cowardly Lioness: Imposserous!
Dick: How about a hippopotamus?
Cowardly Lioness: Why, I'd trash him from top to bottom-us.
Dick: Supposing you met an elephant?
Cowardly Lioness: I'd knot him in cellophant!
Scarecrowette: What if it were a brontosaurus?
Cowardly Lioness: I'd show him who's queen of the forest!
Dick, Scarecrowette, and Tin Man: (Together) How?
Cowardly Lioness: How? (Removes the rug) Courage! What makes a king out of a slave? Courage! What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage! What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! What makes the spinkx the Seventh Wonder? Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! What makes Hottentot so hot? What puts the ape in apricot? What have they got that I ain't got?
Dick, Scarecrowette and Tin Man: (Together) Courage!
Cowardly Lion: (Smiling) You can say that again.(Confused) Huh?
