I'll bet a lot of you folks don't believe that. About a wish coming true, do you? Well, I didn't either. Of course, I'm just a cricket singing my way from hearth to hearth... but... let me tell you what made me change my mind. One night, a long time-- Pardon me. Wait 'til I, I fix this thing here. There. One night, a long time ago, my travels took me to a quaint little village. It was a beautiful night. The stars were shining like diamonds... high above the roofs of that sleepy old town. Pretty as a picture. Page 2/38 As I wandered along the crooked streets, there wasn't a soul to be seen. The only sign of life was a lighted window... in the shop of a wood-carver named, uh, Geppetto. So, I hopped over. And looked in. It was a shame to see a nice cheerful fire like that going to waste. So what do I do? I go in. I looked around. Of course, being in a strange place like that, I didn't know what to expect. A cricket can't be too careful, you know. Soon as I saw there was no one about, I made myself at home. As I stood there warming my... myself, I took a look around. Well, sir, you never saw such a place. The most fantastic clocks you ever laid your eyes on. And all carved out of wood. And cute little music boxes, each one a work of art. Shelf after shelf of toys and-- And then something else caught my eye. A puppet! You know, one of those marionette things, all strings and joints. Cute little fella. Ding, ding! Going up? Good piece of wood too. Well, now. It won't take much longer. Just a little more paint Page 3/38 and he's all finished. I think he'll be all right. Don't you, Figaro? Um, huh, uh, beg pardon. See? That makes a big difference. Very good. Very, very goo-- Well, you can't please everybody. Now, I have just the name for you. Pinocchio! Do you like it, Figaro? No? You do, don't you, Cleo? Well, we'll leave it to little Woodenhead. Do you like it? That settles it! Pinocchio it is! Come on, now, we'll try you out. Music, Professor! Hey! Ow, ow, ow, ouch! Ta-Ta-Take it easy there! Oh, break it up, will you? Lot of downbeats in there. Little Woodenhead Go play your part Bring a littlejoy to every heart Little do you know and yet it's true That I'm mighty proud of you Little wooden feet and best of all Little wooden seat in case you fall Oh-ho! How graceful! My little Woodenhead Cleo, meet Pinocchio. Say, "How do you do?" Say hello to Figaro. Oops! Oh-ho-ho! Page 4/38 Up to mischief already. You see what happens? Boo! Up we go! Ahh. You're a cute little fellow. And that smile? You know, I-- You rascal.Jealous, huh? You know, Pinocchio, I think Figaro is jealous of you. Oh-ho, don't worry, Figaro. I sti-- Uh-oh. I wonder what time it is. It's getting late. Come, now. We go to bed. Good night, Pinocchio. Little funny face. Good night, Cleo, my little water baby. Figaro. You say good night too. Go on. Now go to sleep, my little mermaid. Good night. This is my idea of comfort. Solid comfort. Look at him, Figaro. He almost looks alive. Wouldn't it be nice if he was a real boy? Oh, well. Come on. We go to sleep. Ah, Figaro. I forgot to open the window. Oh, Figaro! Look, look! The wishing star! Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight; I wish I may, I wish I might... have the wish I make tonight. Figaro, you know what I wish? I wish that Page 5/38 my little Pinocchio... might be a real boy. Wouldn't that be nice? Just think! A real boy! A very lovely thought. But not at all practical. A real... boy. Quiet! After all, enough's enough. Now what's up? Hey, what's going on here? As I live and breathe, a fairy! Mm-mmm. Good Geppetto, you have given so much happiness to others. You deserve to have your wish come true. Little puppet made of pine, wake. The gift of life is thine. Whew! What they can't do these days! I can move! I can talk! I can walk! - Yes, Pinocchio, I've given you life. - Why? Because tonight, Geppetto wished for a real boy. - Am I a real boy? - No, Pinocchio. To make Geppetto's wish come true will be entirely up to you. - Up to me? - Prove yourself brave, truthful and unselfish, - and someday you will be a real boy. - A real boy! That won't be easy. You must learn to choose Page 6/38 between right and wrong. Right and wrong? But how will I know? - How will he know. - Your conscience will tell you. - What are conscience? - What are conscience! I'll tell ya! A conscience is that still small voice that people won't listen to. - That's just the trouble with the world today, you see? - Are you my conscience? Who, me? Would you like to be Pinocchio's conscience? Well, w-- uh, I-- I-- uh-- Ohh. Uh-huh. Very well. What is your name? Uh, oh, uh, Cricket's the name. Jiminy Cricket. - Kneel, Mr Cricket. - Huh? No tricks now. I dub you Pinocchio's conscience, lord high keeper of the knowledge of right and wrong, counsellor in moments of temptation... and guide along the straight and narrow path. Arise, Sir Jiminy Cricket. Well! Oh-ho-ho! My, my! Mmm. Say, that's pretty swell. Gee... thanks. But, uh, don't I get a badge or something? - Well, we'll see. - You mean maybe I will? - I shouldn't wonder. - Make it a gold one? Page 7/38 Maybe. Now, remember, Pinocchio, be a good boy. And always let your conscience be your guide. Goodbye, milady. Goodbye! Not bad, says I. Oh, yeah. Ho-ho-ho. Almost forgot about you. Well, Pinoke. -Maybe you and I had better have a little heart-to-heart talk. -Why? - Well, you want to be a real boy, don't you? - Uh-huh! All right. Sit down, son. - Now, you see, the world is full of temptations. - Temptations? Yep. Temptations. They're the wrong things that seem right at the time. But, uh, even though the right things may seem wrong sometimes, uh, sometimes the, the wrong things may be right at the wrong time. Or, uh, visa versa. - Understand? - Uh-uh. But I'm gonna do right! Atta boy, Pinoke. And I'm gonna help you. And anytime you need me, you know, just whistle... like this. Like this? No, no. Try it again, Pinoke. Like this? No, son. Now, listen. That's it! Come on, now, let's sing it! Page 8/38 When you get in trouble and you don't know right from wrong Give a little whistle Give a little whistle When you meet temptation and the urge is very strong Give a little whistle Give a little whistle Not just a little squeak Pucker up and blow -And if your whistle's weak, yell -Jiminy Cricket? Right! Take the straight and narrow path and if you start to slide Give a little whistle Give a little whistle And always let your conscience be your guide Take the straight and narrow path and if you start to slide Give a little whistle Yoo-hoo! Give a little whistle Whoo-hoo! And always let your conscience be your guide And always let your conscience be your guide Look out, Pinoke! - Who is there? - It's me! Oh, it's me. Shh, Figaro. There's somebody in here. Shh! Be careful now, Figaro. He might spring out on us at any time. He's in here somewhere. Here I am! Oh... Pinocchio. How did you get down here? Page 9/38 - I fell down. - Oh, you did. - Ohh! You're talking! - Uh-huh. - N-N-N-No! - Yes, and I can move too! No, n-no, you, you can't-- I-I'm dreaming in my sleep. W-W-Wake me up. Wake me up! Now we see who is dreaming. Go on. Say something. Gee, you're funny. Do it again! - You do talk! - Yes, the Blue Fairy came-- - The Blue Fairy? - Uh-huh. - And I got a conscience. - A conscience! And someday I'm gonna be a real boy! A real boy! It is my wish. It's come true! Figaro, look! He-- He's alive. He can talk! - Let's say hello to Figaro. - Hello to Figaro. Ohh. Oh, Cleo, I almost forgot. Look! It's Pinocchio! She's my little water baby. Isn't she cute? Yeah, cute.
