Curious George

Who's to say

What's impossible

Well, they forgot

This world keeps spinning

And with each new day

I can feel a change

in everything

And as the surface breaks,

reflections fade

But in some ways,

they remain the same

And as my mind begins to

spread its wings

There's no stopping curiosity

I want to turn the whole thing

upside down

I'll find the things

they say just can't be found

I'll share this love I find

with everyone

We'll sing and dance

to Mother Nature's songs

I don't want this feeling to go away

Who's to say

I can't do everything

Well, I can try

And as I roll along

I begin to find

Things aren't always just what they seem

I want to turn the whole thing

upside down

I'll find the things

they say just can't be found

I'll share this love I find

with everyone

We'll sing and dance

to Mother Nature's songs

This world keeps spinning

And there's no time to waste

Well, it all keeps spinning, spinning

round and round

And upside down

Who's to say what's impossible

and can't be found

I don't want this feeling to go away

Please don't go away

Please don't go away

Please don't go away

Is this how it's supposed to be

Is this how it's supposed to be

Now, as I was saying,

life was a constant struggle for survival.

Australopithecus had no time

to enjoy himself...

because around every corner was danger.

- Way to go.

- Oh, good one.

It wasn't until an amazing discovery...

that man was able to take time

and enjoy life.

And why was that?

What made Ogg and Grogg's life

so much better?

- A video game?

- No.

- The Internet?

- No.

- A rocket sled?

- A mountain of chocolate.

- Star stickers?

- No.

- Look. No, no, that wasn't a real question.

- Peanut butter?

That's right.

Fire.

Look at that. Impressive, huh?

Miss Dunlop, why do we have to come

to this boring museum every single week?

It's not boring. It's very interesting.

This led to hot dinners.

- Eventually became the microwave.

- Three, two, one.

Oh! Oh, no.

Hot. Fire's hot.

Yes. Where was I?

- Hey, is that a real spear?

- Can we play with it?

Kids, a museum is a place

where we observe. We don't play.

- This stinks.

- What else can we do?

- Yeah, this is boring.

- Children, be polite.

- Lunchtime!

- Yeah, lunch.

Lunchtime? It's only 9:00 a. m.

Buddy system. Stay with your buddies.

Oh, well, each kid has a buddy

so they can all keep track of each other.

Everyone needs a partner, right?

Oh, yeah. I'm not following.

Well...

- Lungfish!

- Excuse me?

Next Thursday, I'm going to talk

to your class about the lungfish...

the closest living relative of the tetrapods.

- It's pretty great.

- I look forward to hearing it.

You know, I look forward

to all your Thursday lectures.

I wish today was Thursday.

- I mean, I know that it's Thursday.

- Don't worry.

- I just meant, when it's not, I wish it was.

- It's not a big deal.

Here.

I should go catch up to my lungfish.

I mean, class.

Way to go, Maggie.

Way to go.

I'll see you next week, Miss Dunlop.

Oh, how embarrassing.

- Ted?

- Mr Bloomsberry.

Walk with me, Ted.

I'm afraid that Ogg and Grogg,

all of our friends here...

they're just not bringing in the crowds

like they used to.

What do you mean?

It breaks my heart,

but I have to sell the museum. We're broke.

Broke?

Mr Bloomsberry, the museum can't close!

I have no choice, Ted.

Museum attendance is down.

No one's buying anything

from the gift shop.

Even the glow-in-the-dark star stickers?

Even the glow-in-the-dark star stickers.

Man, I love those.

I especially love the Milky Way... Wait!

What will happen to the museum?

- Well, I'm glad you asked.

- Junior?

Lt'll be torn down

and a parking lot put in its place...

with high hourly rates

and no daily maximums.

Ka-ching!

The world doesn't need another parking lot.

The world needs a place

where kids' brains can grow.

Exactly. That's why I'm thinking...

they can grow trying to count

all the spaces in the new parking lot.

Come on. How fun is that?

- He's not serious, is he?

- Well...

It's time, Father.

We're not going to get a better offer.

I know. I know.

Wait. What if we did something?

What if we got an amazing new exhibit?

You know, Ted, you need to worry

about finding an amazing new job.

- Well, hold on, Junior.

- But I was just trying... Oh, great.

Ted, if you have an idea,

now is the time to speak up. What exhibit?

Yes, what exhibit?

- It's the...

- Yes?

- The famous and...

- Yes.

- And rare, of course...

- Yes. Yes.

- The incredible...

- Come on.

- Spit it out.

- Don't be shy, Ted. Come on.

What about the Lost Shrine of Zagawa?

Oh, my goodness.

I'm sorry. "The lost... "

You lost me at, "the lost. "

It's an ancient idol.

Twenty tons of granite...

carved by 1,000 craftsmen over a 100 years.

I had all the charts ready.

I was all set to go to Africa

when something happened.

Slips my mind.

Hello, how about the birth of your only son?

That would be me.

Yes, then I began another adventure,

raising Junior.

Well, now that that's done,

you can finally finish what you've started...

- which is bringing home...

- Yeah! The Lost Shrine of Zagawa.

You'll put this museum on the map.

- I'll need a team of 10 men.

- Oh, at least 10.

It's a four-day hike into the jungle.

You go, girl.

I mean, sir.

We'll be cutting through heavy brush

for 12 hours a day.
