Lyrics

[JOJO] (singing) THIS MIGHT BE A POOL, LIKE I'VE READ OF IN BOOKS, CONNECTED TO ONE OF THOSE UNDERGROUND BROOKS! AN UNDERGROUND RIVER THAT STARTS HERE AND FLOWS RIGHT UNDER THIS BATHTUB! AND THEN— [JOJO] (spoken) Who knows! [JOJO] (singing) IT'S POSSIBLE! ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE! [JOJO, & CAT IN THE HAT] IT'S POSSIBLE! ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE! (JOJO's imagination starts to expand.) [< b="">] IT MIGHT GO ALONG, DOWN WHERE NO ONE CAN SEE, RIGHT UNDER STATE HIGHWAY TWO HUNDRED AND THREE! RIGHT UNDER THE WAGONS! RIGHT UNDER THE TOES [JOJO] (spoken) Of Mrs. Umbroso...! [JOJO] (singing) WHO'S HANGING OUT CLOTHES! IT'S POSSIBLE! ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE. [JOJO, & CAT] IT'S POSSIBLE. ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE. [JOJO] THIS MIGHT BE A RIVER NOW MIGHTN'T IT BE, CONNECTING McELLIGOT'S POOL WITH THE SEA! THEN MAYBE SOME FISH MIGHT BE SWIMMING... SWIMMING TOWARD ME! (We are suddenly underwater. Strange FISH appear–all shapes and sizes, wildly-colored and wildly improbable. The FISH dance and swoop through the water in a "water ballet" with JOJO.) [FISH, & (FALSETTO GROUP)] AH (OO-WEE-EE-EE-EE-OOH!)! IT'S POSSIBLE! IT'S POSSIBLE... AH (OO-WEE-EE-EE-EE-OOH!)! IT'S POSSIBLE! IT'S POSSIBLE... [FISH] AH... AH...AH...AH... AH...AH...AH! [JOJO, & (FISH)] OH, THE SEA IS SO FULL (OOH... WAH-OOH...) OF A NUMBER OF FISH IF A FELLOW IS PATIENT (OOH... WAH-OOH...) HE MIGHT GET HIS WISH! AND THAT'S WHY I THINK (OOH... WAH-OOH...) THAT I'M NOT SUCH A FOOL WHEN I SIT HERE AND FISH (WHEN I SIT HERE AND FISH) IN McELLIGOT'S POOL! IT'S POSSIBLE (IT'S POSSIBLE). (IT'S POSSIBLE) ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE (POSSIBLE.). IT'S POSSIBLE (IT'S POSSIBLE). (IT'S POSSIBLE) ANYTHING'S POSSIBLE (POSSIBLE.). [JOJO] IT'S POSSIBLE... ANYTHING... ANYTHING... (JOJO's PARENTS abruptly interrupt his fantasy.) [MAYOR] (spoken) JoJo! The tub's overflowed on the floor! The water is running right under the door! [MRS. MAYOR] The ceiling is peeling! You've flooded the den! Oh, JoJo, I think you've been Thinking again! [MAYOR] I say this with firmness and terrible sorrow. Young man, we will deal with you comе tomorrow! (MAYOR and MRS. MAYOR exit.) [JOJO] (singing) I STILL THINK THAT I'M NOT SUCH A FOOL WHEN I SIT HERE AND FISH IN McELLIGOT'S POOL! [CAT] IT'S POSSIBLE. (The FISH magically re-appеar.) [JOJO, CAT, & FISH] ANYTHING'S... POSSIBLE! (Lights out on JOJO, as JOJO's PARENTS appear.)<>
