An adventure is something we promise is going to excite you
(Hahh-ah-ah-ah-ahh)
An adventure is something as thrilling as it can be
(Hahh-ah-ah-hah-ah-ah-ahhh)
Adventures make wonderful stories and so we invite you, yeah
(Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoooh)
To hear about something that happened to my friends and me.
(Hah-ah-ah-ah-ah. Hah-ah-ah-ah-ahhh. Oh! )
(Spoken) Here we go!
Took off in Elmo's jet
(His jet)
A ride we won't forget
(Won't forget)
And bailed out just below a huge tall mountain
We climbed for hours and hours
(And hours)
Then found some spooky towers
(Spooky towers)
Inside we helped a fellow with his counting
Chorus:
Adventure!
We swear to you
Adventure!
Our story's true
We had an adventure today
We had an adventure
Oh, what a thrill
Adventure!
Say what you will
It really happened to us just this way
We opened up the door
(Opened up a door)
And saw a dinosaur
(Uh-oh! A dinosaur)
He was chasing Ernie but that boy got lucky
Quick thinking saved the day
(Saved the day)
We scared that beast away
(Get Back! )
With just a squeak or two from rubber duckie
Repeat chorus
(Go! Go! Go! Go!... continues under next verse)
With the help of a map that I carry in my pocket
We found our way aboard a trashcan rocket. OW!
Went further out of space than any other singers
And landed on Saturn with some honkers and dingers
We made it back home with the help of Super Grover
Hey, that was some adventure. Too bad it's over
Repeat chorus
Fades out
(Another suggestion for the previously missing line
That now reads "And landed on Saturn..." was this):

We shuffled our faces laughin' like fish
Really flip flappin' we had not wish
You said, "Look! The ceiling is down."
You said 5 times with that beautiful frown
Adventure I love Adventure
Adventure I need a new Adventure now
We laugh and we dance where the river once ran
Blinkin' our eyes ansdwavin' our hands
We jump in the water that never makes sense
So full of glee and so full o' suspense
Adventure
Air couldn't touch us as we lay on the wall...
Watchin' a play never playin' at all
Movin' through what we could not resist
Moved by a hand that was never a fist

We are adventuring, we are adventurers
And in the heart of Nepal we ran into trouble
When thieves caught sight of our elegant rubble
They ransacked our camp without saying goodnight
Okay, so yeah, but it was cool
Cuz we're like, adventurers
We are adventuring, we are adventurers
We've been to every place anywhere in the world
We are adventuring, we are adventurers
We are adventuring we are adventurers
Deep in the fall it was blazing hot
Below the equators the sunlight would start
We've travelled through jungles and tigers we've fought
But it's all cool, you know
Cuz we're like, adventurers
We are adventuring, we are adventurers
We've been to every place anywhere in the world
We are adventuring, we are adventurers
Castles and causeways and monasteries and hideaways
Castles and causeways and monasteries and hideaways
Castles and causeways and monasteries and hideaways
We are adventuring, we are adventurers
We've been to every place anywhere in the world
We are adventuring, we are adventurers
Oh and it's such fun with all these sights we've seen
Oh and it's such fun with all these sights we've seen
Oh and it's such fun with all these sights we've seen
