The Tale Of Mr Morton

Lyrics & Music by: Lynn Ahrens

Performed by: Jack Sheldon
6
This is the tale of Mister Morton
7
Mister Morton is who?
8
He is the subject of our tale
9
and the predicate tells what Mister Morton must do
10
Mister Morton walked down the street
11
Mister Morton walked
12
Mister Morton talked to his cat
13
Mister Morton talked
14
(Hello, cat. You look good.)
15
Mister Morton was lonely
16
Mister Morton was
17
Mister Morton is the subject of the sentence
18
and what the predicate says, he does
19
Mister Morton knew just one girl
20
Mister Morton knew
21
Mister Morton grew flowers for Perl
22
Mister Morton grew
23
Mister Morton was very shy
24
Mister Morton was
25
Mister Morton is the subject of the sentence
26
and what the predicate says, he does
27
The subject is a noun, that's person, place or thing
28
It's who or what the sentence is about
29
And the predicate is the verb
30
That's the action word
31
that gets the subject up and out
32
Mister Morton wrote Pearl a poem
33
Mister Morton wrote
34
Pearl replied in the afternoon
35
Pearl replied by a note
36
Mister Morton was very nervous
37
Mister Morton was
38
Mister Morton is the subject of the sentence
39
and what the predicate says, he does!
40
The cat stretched,
41
the sun beat down,
42
a neighbor chased his kid.
43
(come here kid - come on!)
44
Each sentence is completed when
45
you know the subject did.
46
Mister Morton knocked on her door
47
Mister Morton knocked
48
Mister Morton sat on her porch
49
Yes, he just sat and rocked
50
Mister Morton was a very nervous man
51
when she opened up the door he ran.
52
Mister Morton climbed up his stairs
53
Mister Morton climbed
54
Mister Morton rhymed pretty words
55
Mister Morton rhymed
56
Mister Morton was lonely
57
Mister Morton was
58
until Pearl showed up with a single rose.
59
Who says women can't propose?
60
Now Mister Morton is happy
61
and Pearl and the cat are too
62
They're the subjects of the sentence
63
and what the predicate says, they do
