Honest John's Diagnosis


From Disney's Pinocchio:



Honest John:
Oh, you poor, poor boy.
You must be a nervous wreck.
That's it! You are a nervous wreck!
We must diagnose this case at once.
(TO GIDEON) Quick, Doctor, your notebook.
Bless my soul.
My, my.
Just as I thought.
A slight touch of monetary complications
with bucolic semilunar contraptions
of the flying trapezes.
Say, "Hippopotamus".

Pinocchio: Hi-ho-hotamus.

Honest John: I knew it!
Compound transmission of the pandemonium
with percussion and spasmodic frantic
disintegration.
Close your eyes. What do you see?

Pinocchio: Nothing.

Honest John: Open 'em. Now what do you see?

Pinocchio: Spots.

Honest John: Now, that heart.
Ooh, my goodness!
A palpating syncopation of the killer diller
with a wicky-wacky stomping of the floy joy.
(TO GIDEON) Quick, Doctor, that report!
This makes it perfectly clear!
My boy, you are allergic.

Pinocchio: Allergic?

Honest John: Yes, and there is only one cure.
A vacation on Pleasure Island!
