The Flying Mouse (1934) Movie Script

1
I would like to be a bird
And go sailing through the sky
If I were a little bird
I would flap my wings and fly
I would go from tree to tree
Fly along so merrily
All the other mice would envy me
I would like to be a bird
Help! Help!
Help! Help! Help!
Poor butterfly.
Brave little mouse,
you've been kind to me.
I'll grant one wish.
What shall it be?
I wanna fly.
Oh, a mouse was never made to fly.
Think carefully, beware.
Please, I wanna fly like the birds.
Well, if wings are what you wish,
then you shall have a pair.
Hello there, brother!
I'm not your brother, I'm a mouse.
A mouse?
No mouse can fly. They ain't got wings.
So if you ain't a bat...
...you're nothin'. Think of that.
- A mouse? Ha-ha!
- A mouse? Ha-ha!
A mouse?
You're nothin' but a nothin'
A nothin', a nothin'
You're nothin' but a nothin'
You're not a thing at all
You're nothin' but a nothin'
A nothin', a nothin'
You're nothin' but a nothin'
A nothin', a nothin'
Nothin'
Why are you crying, little mouse?
Don't you like to fly?
I'm not a mouse. I'm a nothin'.
I wish that I could die.
Come, come, my little friend. Cheer up.
You've learned your lesson. Start a new.
Do your best, be yourself,
and life will smile on you.
Oh, Ma, Ma, Ma!
Ma!
