You've got it, kid! (That thing you've got). The world is yours! (Bad things are not). Put on your hat, Zip up your coat. Those things will keep Your ship afloat. You've got your dreams All packed up tight. And never fear Bumps in the night. But you will find The things you fear: Those Huffs and Puffs That laugh and jeer. You might get sad (Oh yes, you might) And that is when You'll take your flight. You'll run away (Oh yes, you will). Those things that huff Will chase you still. Your flights, you'll find, Will take you far. About as far As Barnard's Star. Those Huffs will fall, And you'll be free! The day is yours! (I guarantee) Yet don't forget When you've grown tall, The dreams you dreamt When you were small.

For Seuss
You've got it, kid! (That thing you've got). The world is yours! (Bad things are not). Put on your hat, Zip up your coat. Those things will keep Your ship afloat. You've got your dreams All packed up tight. And never fear Bumps in the night. But you will find The things you fear: Those Huffs and Puffs That laugh and jeer. You might get sad (Oh yes, you might) And that is when You'll take your flight. You'll run away (Oh yes, you will). Those things that huff Will chase you still. Your flights, you'll find, Will take you far. About as far As Barnard's Star. Those Huffs will fall, And you'll be free! The day is yours! (I guarantee) Yet don't forget When you've grown tall, The dreams you dreamt When you were small.
