"What did you say?" said Dorothy.
"I said," repeated the Lion, "If the thoughts have forms, what kind of
shape must her thoughts be in?"
"Which might apply to us all," said Dorothy.
"What?" asked the Lion. "What did you say?"
"I said," replied Dorothy, beginning to sing:
"If thoughts are things that go bump in the night,
what kind of thoughts do you think are right?
What kind of thoughts do you think to yourself?
What kind of thoughts will you think tonight?"
Everyone joined in to repeat the last line:
"What kind of thoughts will you think tonight?"
Dorothy began again:
"If thoughts are things that can give you a fright,
What kind of thoughts will you bring to sight?
What kind of thoughts do you think to yourself?
What kind of thoughts will you think tonight?"
Again everyone joined in:
Ohhh... What kind of thoughts will you think tonight?
The Lion said, "Let me make one up:
If thoughts have wings and can fly away,
what kind of thoughts are you thinking today?"
"Very good!" said Dorothy, as they all chimed in:
"What kind of thoughts are you thinking today?"
"Let me try," said the Scarecrow:
"If thoughts are things that can zip and zoom,
what kind of thoughts do you think in your room?"
They all sang at the top of their voices:
"What kind of thoughts do you think in your room?"
By now, everyone was in rare humor.
