Thneedville (Original Demo)

In Thneedville

It's a brand new day

Can't see the sun

But we like it that way

Here in get more than we need-ville

In Thneedville

You're never alone

(Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo)

'Cause you've always got

The stuff that you own

Just got my baby a phone

In Thneedville

Where the smog is real

And all the trees are made of plastic and steel

Here in growing like a weed-ville

In Thneedville

(Oh-oh-oh-ooh-ooh)

Where the buildings all grow

(Where the buildings all grow)

And the street lights sprout

And the chemicals flow

I just went swimming and now I glow

Just one place has stayed the same

The hill that bears our founder's name

A tradition we maintain

Soon to become a pizza chain

Pizza chain

Pi-i-i-izza chain

Oh look, it's Aloysius O'Hare (Aloysius O'Hare)

The man who bottled up fresh air

And became a zillionaire

Everyone 'round here works for me

I sell them something they should get for free

We live in perfect harmony

In Thneedville

In Thneedville

Hip-hooray

Hip-hooray

Hip-hip-hooray

All I ever wanted is a Whozit

I would never flaunt it

Oh, how I'd use it

Everybody has one

Like Jared and Julie and Jim

And even Ronald Schlook has one

And nobody's lamer than him

And I would play with it all day

(Ooo, play with it all day)

And never ever lose it

(Never ever)

'Cause all I ever wanted is a Whozit

Except for the time that I wanted a scooter

A cellphone, a trombone, a laptop computer

A sports car, an SUV, robot that looks like me

A broad sword, a surfboard, a gas-powered sled

A little pet monkey that danced on my head

But this, this it totally different

'Cause all I ever wanted in my life

Is the stuff that I don't have

In Thneedville

It's a brand new day

(All I've ever wanted is the stuff that I don't have)

Can't see the sun

But we like it that way

Here in get more than we need-ville

(Want it terribly)

In Thneedville

(Want it horribly)

You're never alone

(All I've ever wanted is the stuff that I don't have)

Because you've always got the stuff that you own

(Where is the stuff that I haven't had?)

Here in spend until you bleed-ville

Growing like a weed-ville

Please don't mention greed-ville

We're happy here in...Thneedville
