Let It Grow

You don’t know me
But my name’s Cy
I’m just the O’Hare Delivery Guy
But it seems like trees might be worth a try
So I say let it grow
Dan:
My name is Dan
Rose:
And my name’s Rose
Dan and Rose:
Our son Wesley kind of glows
And that’s not good, so we suppose
We should let it grow!
Ted’s Mom:
Let it grow
Let it grow
Crowd:
You can’t reap what you don’t sow
Plant a seed inside the earth
Just one way to know its worth
Let’s celebrate the world’s rebirth
We say let it grow!
Marie:
My name’s Marie
And I am three!
I would really like to see a tree!
La la la la la la la la la la li
I say let it grow
Grammy Norma:
I’m Grammy Norma
I’m old, and I’ve got gray hair
But I remember when trees were everywhere
And no one had to pay for air
So I say let it grow!
Crowd:
Let it grow
Let it grow
Like it did so long ago!
It is just one tiny seed
But it’s all we really need
It’s time to change the life we lead
Time to let it grow!
O’Hare:
My name’s O’Hare
I’m one of you
I live here in Thneedville too
The things you say just might be true
It could be time to start anew
And maybe change my point of view
Naw!
I say let it die!
Let it die
Let it die
Let it shrivel up and…
Come on!
Who’s with me?
Huh?
Marie:
Nobody
Singing Delivery Man:
You greedy dirtbag!
Crowd:
Let it grow
Let it grow
Let the love inside you show
Plant a seed inside the earth
Just one way to know its worth
Let’s celebrate the world’s rebirth
We say let it grow!
Let it grow
Let it grow
You can’t reap what you don’t sow
It is just one tiny seed
But it’s all we really need
It’s time to banish all your greed
Imagine Thneedville flowered and treed!
Let this be our solemn creed!
We say let it grow
(In Thneedville)
We say let it grow
(It's a brand new dawn)
We say let it grow
(In Thneedville)
We say let it grow
It’s a brand new dawn
