[rooster crowing]

[male narrator] It sure was a beautiful morning.

The sun came up glowing and glitzeling.

And when the dawn broke

all the witzel birds woke.

The witzel birds all woke up witzeling.

[birds chirping]

[music continues]

[dramatic music]

[male narrator] An unusually beautiful morning it was.

Even the Grinch woke up witzeling.

[whistles]

His dog, Max, was amazed!

He stared up from the floor.

A witzeling Grinch?

Never happened before.

Never before had this nasty, old guy

left out of his bed with a smile in his eye

and witzeling, "Hello," to the birds in the sky.

[whistling]

Unbelievable!

This was gooder than good.

This was grander than grand.

There was peace in his heart.

There'd be peace in the land.

And a very good morning to you, Mr. Grinch.

Oh, it is, is it?

Well, i-it seems so, sort of.

I see nothing to witzel about.

You must be out of your head, no doubt.

I think the time has come for thee

to repeat the Grinch's oath with me.

[both] A Grinch is unhelpful

unfriendly, unkind.

With ungracious thoughts..

...in an unhealthy mind.

A Grinch is uncheerful

uncouth and unclean.

'Now, say this together!'

[both] I'm frightfully mean!

My eyes are both shifty.

My fingers are thrifty.

My mouth will not smile.

Not half of an inch.

I'm a Grinch.

I am a Grinch.

I'm a Grinch!

That's my boy!

Now, go out and prove it.

[whimpering]

[The Grinch] Prove it. Prove it.

Prove it.

Prove it.

You get this crate out of my way.

I am tremendously so, so sorry, mister..

Whatever your name is.

I do seem to be blockerizing

and obstructivating your mobility.

Obstructivating my mobility willity.

However, Mr. Hosts, if you would be so kind

as to hold my hot dog..

'That's a good fellow.'

I will de-blockorize and de-obstructivate this roadway

[The Grinch] Having problems, Mr. Cat in the Hat?

Come inside.

I have something to show you.

This, sir, is my Acoustical

Anti-Audial Bleeper.

Otherwise known as my Vacu-Sound Sweeper.

That?

That's the darn thing

that makes the sound sound stupid?

It sucks out of the air every noise

every sound

and gargles the sound waves

for 50 miles 'round!

'Nifty little contraption, isn't it?'

It's implausible, it's impossible

it's unreasonable and unlawsible.

Such things never happen in the middle of the day.

'And if they do, I ignore them'

and they're bound to go away..

No hidey-widey from Grinchy-Winchy.

That cat!

I snurgled his sound.

'Now I'll even do more.'

Take this up to my shop on the 39th floor.

That cat's gonna suffer like never before!

That Grinch, that Grinch.

He has smuggled our light.

He's guzzled our sound.

He's bamboozled our lives.

And a way must be found to cease him

from schploting his evil around.

[dramatic music]

That Grinch. That Grinch.

Deep inside his freaky freakness

there must be a soft spot.

[blows]

There must be a weakness.

Despite the grim fact that he's depraved and deranged

I will find that soft spot.

That Grinch can be changed.

He hates cows.

He hates cats.

He hates frogs, he hates doves.

Is there no one, no one?

Nobody he loves?

Absolutely not!

That's a lot of rot!

[whooshing]

Rowdy-doe! I've got it!

I've got it, I've got the Grinch

[The Grinch] Yes, mama.

[sniffles]

Hand me a wrench, Max.

We've got work to do.

[male narrator] Once again, it was a beautiful morning.

Once again, the sun came up glitzeling

and the witzel birds once more were witzeling.

This was gooder than good.

This was grander than grand.

There was peace in his heart.

There'd be peace in the land.

And a very good morning to you, Mr. Grinch.

Oh, it is, is it?

I think the time has come for thee

to repeat The Grinch's oath..
