The Cat in the Cap (based on Dr. Seuss's poem)
The rain beats down, the rain beats down, screenwriters Aleksey Karayev, O. Ryvkin
Rain beats upon the rooftop.
Like streaming rivers flow the streets, director Aleksey Karayev
And the square's a whole pond. art director Aleksandr Petrov
All of the sparrows flew away, camera Nikolay Gribkov
All of the mice skedaddled,
And some umbrellas, like small boats, composer A. Nimenskiy
Are floating down the street.
This rain has poured, This rain has poured,
This rain has poured a whole week.
Where are we to go on a walk
And what are we to do?
These books we've read a hundred times,
And all these toys are boring.
We are so bored, we are so bored,
So bored of being bored!
Mom!
Why so dopey? Why so mopey?
How dare you two kids be bored?
Take a good, hard look around you,
There is so much to explore:
Here's a forest dense!
Here are mountains high!
Here is a string sonorous!
Plink, plink!
Here is a fish that can speak!
This is all nonsense!
Neither fish nor cats can speak!
Fish do not play any games,
fish do not fly in the sky.
It's time to fly, Dibs, I'm the pilot!
Hold on!
Hurrah!
You'll crash!
I don't think so...
This is no sea, this is no island.
It's a tub with a fig!
Well, obviously, it's not an island.
Obviously, it's an elephant!
Oh, yeah! The wardrobe's not to be played in!
It's totally not a wardrobe, It's totally a train station!

[ VASYA WAS HERE ] [ A priest had a dog... ]
Bim-bom, bim-bom,
Topsy-turvy is this home...
Let's keep playing...
Let's start tidying!
Mom!
