Emma: How you can stand there
And say what you’re saying,
I just don’t know!
I must admit
The Sahara is one place
I’m praying
We just won’t go!

Matthew: Who would have thought
That one little kiss …
Soft and sweet
From the lips of a lovely girl …
Would change my life?
But by my life …
It will!

Song lyrics to Doctor Dolittle, Written by Leslie Bricusse, Performed by Anthony Newley, William Dix and Ginny Tyler in the movie Doctor Dolittle

Matthew: This is the world of Doctor Dolittle –
The wonderful world of Doctor Dolittle –
Where crocodiles talk
And elephants sing
And animals do most any old thing;
Where polar bears wear top hats,
And leopards with spots wear spats.

Song lyrics to Beautiful Things, Written by Leslie Bricusse, Performed by Anthony Newley and Samantha Eggar with vocal by Diana Lee in Doctor Dolittle

Emma, I can’t explain what it is that he is
But he is what he is for a very good reason
I can’t explain why he does what he does
But he does what he does cause his heart is pure –
Of that much, I’m sure.

Song lyrics to My Friend The Doctor, Written by Leslie Bricusse, Performed by Anthony Newley in Doctor Dolittle

Matthew: He’s altogether a marvelous man, an’ he understands the Irish!
… and any man who understands the Irish
Can’t be reckoned altogether bad –
The same way that a lunatic
Whose patron saint is Patrick
Can’t be reckoned altogether mad.

Doctor Dolittle is a charming fantasy excursion. It creates a wonderful world of endless imagination through music, dance and special effects. Rex Harrison stars in the madcap adventures of a 19th Century English doctor.  The doctor walks and talks and squawks with the animals. Based on the charming stories of Hugh Lofting, the good doctor gets himself into all sorts of funny predicaments in this fun family film.  It earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture. It has terrific music, fine acting, lovable creatures and a joyous fantasy tale. Doctor Dolittle is a classic for young and old alike.
