Which Line Didn't Make it to Wonderland?

Alice Wonderland Disney Cheshire Cat classic lyrics deleted line
Disney's animated Alice in Wonderland isn't perfect, but its unique and unforgettable style makes it my favorite Disney film (or, at least tied for first place with Peter Pan).

The movie's sharp, off-the-wall lyrics and dialogue are quite unlike anything in any other Disney feature. Here's a list of some gems, but can you spot the line that didn't make it into the final film? The answer sits under the next pic.

1) What it is, it wouldn't be--and what it wouldn't be, it would.

2) Not aquamarine!

3) I never, never ever do a thing about the weather, 'cause the weather never, ever does a thing for me.

4) Doh something, Doo-doo!

5)
Started it tomorrow, but we'll finish yesterday.
 

6)  How cheerfully he seems to grin, how neatly spreads his claws--and welcomes little fishes in with gently smiling jaws.

7) Follow the directions and directly you'll be directed in the right direction.

8) We don't want weeds in our bed!

9) If you'll believe that I believe that you believe in me, then I'll believe that you believe that I believe in you.
 

10) Start at the beginning, and when you get to the end...stop!

11)
Don't tell the Queen what you have seen, nor say that's what we said.

12) This watch is full of wheels!

Pete's Dragon: A Classic LP Returns...Almost Complete

Pete's Dragon review album cover art Disney soundtrack LP iTunes
After a long, long stay in the vault, the 1977 Pete's Dragon LP recently arrived on iTunes and Amazon MP3. Fans can rejoice, and then puzzle over the deletion of one of the album's tracks.

Pete's Dragon is no Marry Poppins, but the songs are still a lot of fun, and if you've never heard this album before, you might be surprised to find that several of the tracks differ quite a bit from the movie versions, particularly Mickey Rooney's "I Saw a Dragon." The songs are also in the wrong order (the album's always been like that), so you'll probably want to fix that on your playlist.
