Song lyricsLittle wooden head go play your part. Bring a little joy 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 wooden head. |

NotesThe song is included in Pinocchio Movie Songs. Figaro was Disney's favorite character. He pushed for the kitten to appear in the film as much as possible. After the film, Walt Disney swapped Minnie Mouse's little cocker spaniel with Figaro. The animators had a difficult time choosing how to animate Geppetto. Early models looked too much like Doc from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937). So eventually decided to model him after his voice actor, Christian Rub. The animation of the sparkles produced by the Blue Fairy's magic were designed by abstract animator Oskar Fischinger, who was working on the Toccata and Fugue sequence of Fantasia (1940).
