Let Me Be Surprised |
This is the Great Hall of Judgement |
Judgement?! |
Oh, not to worry, Charlie. |
You’ll go to Heaven. |
All dogs go to Heaven because, |
unlike people, dogs are naturally good, and loyal, and kind |
Ah, yeah, that’s true |
Welcome to doing whatever you wish! |
Ah, this is really a lovely place you got here |
Eating whenever you please! |
(spoken) |
Follow me |
(sung) |
To a constant temperate climate |
We keep it 73 degrees |
(spoken) |
We’re still in Fahrenheit here |
That’s fine with me |
Welcome to no more rat race! |
Oh boy |
To order and calm instead |
Ah, great |
Welcome… to being dead! |
(spoken) |
What?! |
You mean I’m… I’m… |
Stone-cold, I’m afraid |
I can’t believe it! |
I’ve been murdered! |
I’m having trouble finding any goodness or loyalty here. |
But let me see… |
He killed me! |
I beg your pardon? |
There’s a mistake been made here! |
(sung) |
I don’t wanna die! |
You got the wrong guy! |
I was double-crossed by a dirty rat |
Actually, this rat was a dog, but his car ran me down |
I just blew outta jail |
I just got back to town |
Hey! |
This is hard to explain |
May I speak to your superior? |
'Cause I don’t wanna die! |
Welcome to doing whatever you wish! |
You got the wrong guy! |
Laughing and singing all day |
(spoken) |
Hey! |
My time’s not up yet! |
Oh, it is. |
There’s no mistake about that. |
We know everything |
Murdered in the prime of my life! |
Damn that Carface, I’ll kill 'im! |
Hey, this must be the watch department, huh? |
You might call it that. |
See, this watch is your life… and it’s stopped |
Well, can’t you just wind it up or something? |
And send you back? |
Oh no, no, no! |
No one’s ever allowed to go back. |
Just put your paw right here |
What’s that for? |
For our book of records. |
You see, everything about you that was, or will be, |
is right here |
Oh, isn’t that wonderful? |
I love it here. |
You mean there’s no surprises or |
anything? |
Oh no, no, no. |
We know everything |
Oh, that’s just lovely. |
The clouds, the grass, the air |
Heaven is a wonderful place |
Yeah. |
No surprises, huh? |
Say, would you like to dance? |
You mean if I’m waiting for an inside straight up here I’d know in advance |
whether I filled it? |
We know how it all turns out |
You must’ve studied dancing. |
You have natural rhythm. |
Unusual, for a whippet |
Oh! |
I’m getting dizzy! |
Everything is so lovely here. |
So planned, so ordered… and that’s what driving |
me crazy |
(sung) |
I need Brazil |
The throb, the thrill |
I’ve never been there, but someday I will! |
Adventure and danger, love from a stranger |
Let me be surprised! |
(La-de-da-de-da-bom-ba-bom) |
(Ha ha!) |
Today there’s sun |
They said there’d be snow |
When all’s said and done |
It’s fun not to know! |
What keeps my heart humming |
Is guessing what’s coming |
Let me be surprised! |
Oh! |
Ain’t it great? |
Ain’t it great? |
When fate makes you wait? |
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la! |
The world seems mirthless |
You feel worthless |
Then suddenly |
There’s a big bone on your plate! |
Oh, Charlie, please remember |
Down there’s a world of used cars |
And singles' bars |
Broken dreams |
And out-of-reach stars! |
But, it isn’t over |
Not for this rover |
I don’t like to steal |
Ha ha! |
But I don’t buy this deal |
La-la-la! |
In 'bout three seconds, she’ll have realized |
Ha ha! |
And she’s gonna be… |
Charlie, what are you doing? |
Wait’ll you see! |
What’s that you have behind your back? |
She’s gonna be… |
Charlie, don’t wind that watch! |
Surprised! |
Charlie! |
