Song #3: The Worry Song

Fades to Matthew, Jessica and Pajama Sam sighing happily.

Matthew: Wow, heaven looks good.

Jessica: Yeah, I wish I can more there.

Pajama Sam: Me too.

Eli: I know you kids are, but you're not angels.

Jessica: Oh, right.

Eli: Now, did you know that the famous guy named 'Gene Kelly?'

Matthew: You mean an actor who plays Joe in "Anchors Aweigh?"

Eli: That's right, and he teaches the king about how to dance.

Pajama Sam: The king? Who's the king?

Antonia: Why, Jerry the mouse, of course.

Jessica: Jerry the mouse… is he a king?

Antonia: Correct, and he sang a song about being worry. So let's sing-along with him!

Pajama Sam: Good idea!

Antonia grabs the remote and presses a button to turn the television on. Then it shows Joe began singing to Jerry the Mouse.


Joe:

If you worry, if you worry

If you bother your head

Jerry the Mouse: I do

Joe:

It won't help you, it won't help you

It will hurt you instead

Jerry the Mouse: It will?

Joe:

Grouchers, groaners, cranks and moaners

They're so unfair

Jerry the Mouse: I know

Joe:

If you can't be gay and merry

Lock yourself in solitary

Though it hurts you, though it hurts you

Be a pleasanter guy

You may even learn to like it

If you give it a try

Jerry the Mouse: I'll try

Joe:

You could laugh and sing and dance

As gaily as an elf

But don't expect to get much help

If you don't help yourself

Joe: Will you try?

Jerry the Mouse: If you show me

Joe: I'll show you

Jerry the Mouse: I'll try

Joe: Good!

Joe:

One, two, three, four

Jerry the Mouse:

One, two, three, four

Joe:

One, two, three

Jerry the Mouse:

One, two, three

Joe:

La-la-la-la-la-la

Jerry the Mouse:

La-la-la-la-la-la

Joe: You see?

Jerry the Mouse: It's easy!

*Joe & Jerry the Mouse's Dance Break*

Children:

If you worry, if you worry

If you bother your head

It won't help you, it won't help you

It will hurt you instead

Grouchers, groaners, cranks and moaners

They're so unfair

If you can't be gay and merry

Lock yourself in solitary

*Joe & Jerry the Mouse's Dance Break*

Children:

Though it hurts you, though it hurts you

Be a pleasanter guy

You may even learn to like it

If you give it a try

You could laugh and sing and dance

As gaily as an elf

So try, try, try!

Jerry the Mouse: Look at me! I'm dancing!

*Joe & Jerry the Mouse's Final Dance Break*

Jerry the Mouse places a medal onto his shirt and they do a final pose together as the song ends.


Then fades to Matthew and Jessica, their eyes sparkled in amazed.

Matthew & Jessica: Wow!

Jessica: Mr. Kelly really loves to dance.

Matthew: Yeah, especially Jerry.
