Sesame Street

Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame Street

Come and play
Everything's A-OK
Friendly neighbors there
That's where we meet
Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street

It's a magic carpet ride
Every door will open wide
To Happy people like you
Happy people like-
What a beautiful
Sunny Day
Sweepin' the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet
Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame street...
How to get to Sesame Street

Alligator King

One two three four five six seven!

Said the Alligator King to his seven sons,
"I'm feelin' mighty down.
Whichever of you can cheer me up
Will get to wear my crown."

His first son brought seven oyster pearls
From the bottom of the China Sea.
The second gave him seven statues of girls
With clocks where their stomachs should be.

The third son gave him seven rubies
From the sheikdom down there beneath.
The King thought the rubies were cherries,
And he broke off seven of his teeth.

The fourth son tried to cheer him up
With seven lemon drops.
The King said, "I'm sorry son,
Since that ruby episode,
I just haven't got the chops."

The fifth son brought the King perfume
In seven fancy silver jars;
The King took a whiff, and he broke out in spots
'Cause it smelled like cheap cigars.

The sixth son gave him seven diamond rings
To wear upon his toes.
The King snagged his foot on the royal red rug
And crumpled up his nose.

The seventh son of the Alligator King
Was a thoughtful little whelp.
He said, "Daddy, appears to me
That you could use a little help."
Said the Alligator King to his seventh son,
“My son, you win the crown.
You didn't bring me diamonds or rubies, but
You helped me up when I was down.
Take the crown; it's yours, my son.
I hope you don't mind the dents.
I got it on sale at a discount store-Cost me all of seven cents!"

Seven!

I Love Trash

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty
.Anything ragged or rotten or rusty.
Yes, I love trash.
I have here a sneaker that's tattered and worn,
It's all full of holes and the laces are torn.
.A gift from my mother the day I was born,
I love it because it's trash.

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty,
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty,
Yes, I love trash.

I have here some newspaper thirteen months old,
I've wrapped some fish inside it, it's smelly and old,
But I wouldn't trade it for a big pot o' gold,
I love it because it's trash.

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty,
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty,
Yes, I love trash.

I've a clock that won't work,
And an old telephone.
A broken umbrella, a rusty trombone.
And I am delighted to call them my own!
I love them because they're trash

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty,
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty,
Yes, I love, I love, I love trash!

It's Not Easy Bein' Green

It's not that easy bein' green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves.
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that
.It's not easy bein' green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're not standing out
Like flashy sparkles in the water- or stars in the sky.
But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain, or tall like a tree.
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why,
But why wonder why?
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

We All Sing with the Same Voice

My hair is black and red.
My hair is yellow.
My eyes are brown and green and blue.
My name is Jack and Fred.
My name's Amanda Sue.
I'm called Kareem Abdul.
My name is you.
I live in southern France.
I'm from a Texas ranch.
I come from Mecca and Peru.
I live across the street,
In the mountains, on a beach.
I come from everywhere
And my name is you.

We all sing with the same voice,
The same song, the same voice.
We all sing with the same voice,
And we sing in harmony.

Sometimes I get mad and mean.
Sometimes I feel happy.
And when I want to cry, I do.
When I'm by myself at night,
I hold my teddy tight
Until the morning light.
My name is you.
I have sisters one, two, three.
In my family there's just me.
I've got one daddy.
I've got two.
Grandpa helps me cross the street.
My cat walks on furry feet.
I love my parakeet.
My name is you.

We all sing with the same voice,
The same song, the same voice.
We all sing with the same voice,
And we sing in harmony.

I like to run and climb.
I like to sit and read.
I like to watch my TV, too.
And when it's time for bed,I like my stories read
,"Sweet dreams" and "Love you" said,
My name is you.

We all sing with the same voice,
The same song, the same voice.
We all sing with the same voice,
And we sing in harmony.
