About the Song
Because We're Kids is from The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T. is a 1953 musical fantasy film. It is notable for being the only feature film ever written by Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss), who was responsible for the story, screenplay and lyrics. It was directed by Roy Rowland (with many takes actually directed by producer Stanley Kramer, although uncredited). The film was rereleased in 1958 under the title Crazy Music. Made in 1953 which was a critical technology transition year, where Eastmancolor would begin to edge-out Three-Strip Technicolor for color production. This film was formatted for the more traditional 1.37:1 aspect ratio, rather than the emerging (beginning with Shane) 1.66:1/1.85:1 "flat wide screen" format. Nevertheless, The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T. was a last-gasp use of the 1.37:1 Three-Strip Technicolor format, which would seldom, if ever, save for so-called "restorations", be seen.    Download this sheet!
