Ever since my life began,
There've been times I need somebody here,
To help me understand.
I can find my plan with a helping hand from you.
Your help will do.
And I'll be here to help you too.
Ever since my time was new,
There's been things I need somebody here,
To help me try and do.
I can see them through with a helping hand from you.
Your help will do.
And I'll be here to help you through.
And I'll be here to help you too.
Ever since the world was made,
There's been times a person needs to find a friend who's not afraid,
And I know I'll do the things I got to do workin' with you.
I've got a helping hand,
Waiting to hold your hand.
I've got a helping hand for you.
I've got a helping hand,
Waiting to hold your hand.
I've got a helping hand for you.
Every place I go,
No one seems to know.
Everything is always the same.
Still I need to trust,
In the best of us.
Can't we change the rules of the game?
It's time for everyone.
Time to live as one.
Watching here and there,
No one seems to care.
We could tear the whole thing apart.
Can't we pay the price?
Make a sacrifice?
Know we're different right from the start?
It's time for everyone.
Time to live as one.
It's time for everyone.
Time to live as one.
Needle fights the thread.
?? works the bread.
Wind and wave make war on the sea.
Nature knows the way.
Shows it everyday.
To join us though we still disagree.
It's time for everyone.
Time to live as one.
It's time for everyone.
Time to live as one.
It's time for everyone.
Remember when,
Now and then,
Everything went wrong?
And then our friends would sing,
The friendship song.
Remember, Red?
You and I,
We'd nearly cry,
To know their love was strong,
And by and by,
We'd start to sing along.
We sang,
Try a little longer,
For your friends.
Try a little a stronger,
For your friends.
You work all night.
You work all day.
You still can't keep,
Those worry blues away.
Try a little longer,
For your friends.
Try a little a stronger,
For your friends.
Life comes up.
Life goes down.
There's just one way,
To keep it,
Going 'round.
Try a little longer,
For your friends.
Try a little a stronger,
For your friends.
(Repeat)
Remember when,
Now and then,
Everything went wrong?
And then our friends would sing,

Do you, Piggy, take this frog
To be your lawful wedded husband
Do you?
I do...
Do you, Froggie take this Pig
To be your lawful wedded wife
Until you die?
Well, I? Well....I...?
Do you?
(gulp) I do...
Then because you share a love so big
I now pronounce you frog and pig
What better way could anything end?
It's neat and it's sweet
It's a ding dong treat
Knittin' socks for little feet
Just sittin' with your knittin' all day long
You know knittin's friendly
And knittin's fun
Knittin's good for everyone
And that is why we sing this knittin' song
Well it's knit one pearl two
What's a Doozer gonna do
With a gol-darn
Ball of yarn?
It's stitch three drop four
Pitch that knittin' out the door right now
There's a green there's a red
There's a knot in my thread
A knitter needs his noggin read
So don't come 'round and speak to me of yarn
You can k-nit all day and k-nothin' fits
'Cause only k-nitwits like to k-nit
And k-nittin' k-needles just ain't worth a darn
Well it's knit one pearl two
What's a Doozer gonna do
With a gol-darn
Ball of yarn?
It's stitch three drop four
"You know sometimes it's just so good to be alone "
Just don't know what time it is
And sometimes it's sunny like sweet apple honey
I try to remember my name
Sometimes the sky is like blueberry pie
And my heart feels the same 'til
I just don't know what time it is
And sometimes the rain starts to laugh in my veins
Till I feel like a leaf in a tree
That's when my heart starts to tumble apart
when I take my dog for a walk, he takes me for a run
dragging me along the street is his idea of fun.
From lamp post to lamp post, we jog along the street
Well, I can paint and I can sew and I can sweep it clean.
I can pop the popcorn.
I can fill the pop machine.
I can even be the diving queen.
I can do it on my own.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
I can do it.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
On my own
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
I can do it on my own
I can build a grand stand,
For the fans from near and far.
I can be the band, because I play a mean guitar.
I can even be the swimming star.
I can do it on my own.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Yes I can.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
On my own.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
I can do it on my own.
Don't pretend that you can bake and race and bang a hammer.
Why pretend when you want the best,
And we all know that I am her.
Don't pretend that no one else has got abilities.
I don't need pretending all I need is me, me, me!
I can swim and I can win,
'Cause I'm the referee.
I can give myself the prize for popularity.
I can even shout, "Hooray for me!"
I can do it on my own.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Yes I can.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Gonna do it.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
On my own.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Stand back.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Look out.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Gonna do it.
(Do it, do it. On your own.)
Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for a lime.
She put the lime in the coconut, she drank them both up

Pretty day
Sunny sky
Lovely pictures
Dance in your eyes
It all seems so right
It all seems so rare
Summer soft
Sudden breeze
Watch the wind
Play tag in the trees
The world is so bright
So perfectly fair
Lovers sing
Children dance
For a minute
We've got a chance
Why couldn't we fly
I know we'd get by
Sunny sky
Pretty day
Just a push
And we're on the way
Yes couldn't we ride
Side by side
Why couldn't we fly
I know we'd get by
Sunny sky
Pretty day
Just a push
And we're on the way
Yes couldn't we ride
Side by side

Be kind to your neighborhood monsters
for they are not as scarry as they seem
if you see one scaddeling
down the lane or paddeling
up the stream
don't screem
for a monster could be somebody's mommy
and their feelings aren't exactly made of wood
so offer one a piece of your salami
be kind to the monsters in your neighborhood
(hmmmmm hum hmm hmm hum)
daring and brave
(la la la and something) monsters
never misbehave
or hardly
ever
loving and loyal
true to the end
hairy, but Not scarry monsters
want to be your friend
for a monster could be somebody's mommy
and their feelings aren't exactly made of wood
so offer one a piece of your salami
be kind to the monsters in you neighborhood

Yellow moon where the
Zulu chief and I do hide

"I'm Going to Go Back There Someday"
This looks familiar, vaguely familiar,
Almost unreal, yet, it's too soon to feel yet.
Close to my soul, and yet so far away.
I'm going to go back there someday.
Sun rises, night falls, sometimes the sky calls.
Is that a song there, and do I belong there?
I've never been there, but I know the way.
I'm going to go back there someday.
Come and go with me, it's more fun to share,
We'll both be completely at home in midair.
We're flyin', not walkin', on featherless wings.
We can hold onto love like invisible strings.
There's not a word yet for old friends who've just met.
Part heaven, part space, or have I found my place?
You can just visit, but I plan to stay.
I'm going to go back there someday.
Pick any song you please
Click we're in harmony
Stick to me and you'll see
What a kick it is to be
Friends, friends, friends 'til the end
You travel where you will
I'll tag along and we'll
See most of everywhere
Everyone will know that we're
Friends, Friends, Friends 'til the end
Sometimes when we feel a little bored
We play a little game but we don't keep score
Friendship is its own reward
Fun just to play the game
Win lose it's all the same
Who cares who really comes in first?
Let's spell it out!
F Someone asks of me
R You and me a team
I Say we'll always be friends 'til the
E-N-D
Dance your cares away
Worry's for another day
Let the music play
Down at Fraggle Rock
Work your cares away
Dancing's for another day
Let the Fraggles play
We're Gobo Mokey Wembley Boober Red
Dance your cares away
Worry's for another day
Let the music play

Do you love the Doozer days working all day long?
Will you follow Doozer ways building with a song?

Do you dream of Doozer chores sleeping in your home?
Yes we do, yes we do
Yes we really, really do
Yes we do, yes we do

Can you dig and fill a trench?
Yes I really can
Can you monkey with a wrench?

Can you dream of Doozer towers?
Yes I really can
Can you call on Doozer power?
Yes we really can
Yes we can, yes we can
Yes we really, really can
Yes we can, yes we can

"Listen carefully now " - The Architect
Does a Doozer ever doze?
Does a Doozer shirk?
Does a Doozer thumb his nose at doing Doozer work?
No we don't, no we don't
No we really, really don't
No we don't, no we don't
No we really don't
"Now answer me this " - The Architect
Will a Doozer ever snooze?

Well you can go take a bath.
Figure out math.
Eat a Doozer tower on the garden path.
But you can't do that.
No, no, no, you can't do that.
No you can't do any of that,
Without a hat.
Well you can ride on your bike.
Go fly a kite.
Make a sticky sandwich in the middle of the night.
No you can't do any of that,
Without a hat.
Well you can talk real tough.
Huff and puff.
Say you didn't mean it and all that stuff.
But you can't do that.
No you can't do that.
No you can't do any of that ,
With out a hat.
Can't do any of that,
With out a hat.
You can't do any of that.
Well you can be real brave.
Be real bold.
Over come a danger,
Just as good as gold.
But you can't do that.
No you can't do that.
No you can't do any of that,
Sometimes I'm alone,
Sitting on my very own,
Trying to find a simple kind of clue.
And I would like to know,
Why the Doozers move me so,
Doing all the things that Doozers do.
Why do caterpillars crawl?
Why is there a sky?
Why is there a world at all?
And why do I ask why?
Here I go again.
Why do questions never end?
What keeps callin' all day long to me?
Secrets come and go.
I know we're not the only ones.
Sometimes magic, sometimes only me.
Why do caterpillars crawl?
Why is there a sky?
Why is there a world at all?
Well when I'm wembling west

Yes it's a doodley doodley doo
Do doodley doo bop boobley boo

I'll get information and speculation for the exploration it's true
And the expectations of the operation are very high
But the motivation for the perpetration is a botheration right through
And the preparation of the accusation leaves me high and dry
But I'm on the case and I'm in the chase and I won't go back
'Cause I'm on the track, to know (to know), to know (to know)
And the facts come in 'til my senses spin
But my mind is clear and I'm searching here
To know (to know), to know (to know), to know (to know)
There's a lot I want to know
Now the aggravation of the investigation is the imputation of guilt
And the implication is a prevarication when they talk to me
But my reputation for concentration and inspiration is built
On a dedication to imagination to a high degree
But I'm on the case and I'm in the chase and I won't go back
'Cause I'm on the track, to know (to know), to know (to know)
And the facts come in 'til my senses spin
But my mind is clear and I'm searching here
To know (to know), to know (to know), to know (to know)
There's a lot I want to know
There's a lot I want to know
I don't care what they say
'Cause I know where to find my way
It won't be the way they said to go
'Cause I'm not like they say
I just want to find my own way
I'm going the way I've got to go
So show me the way to go
And I'll go free
The song, the song, the song, of songs
Everybody down at Fraggle Rock
Don't be late it's time for taking stock
Everybody's got a part to play
Everybody brought their hearts today
Sing about the rock and sing it strong
'Cause we belong to the song
And the rock goes on and on and on
One is for the ones who came before
Two is for the treasures at our door
Three is for the rockin' jubilee
Four is for the future that will be
When we start to sing we sing it strong
'Cause we belong to the song
And the rock goes on and on and
'Cause we belong to the song
And the rock goes on and on and
'Cause we belong to the song
And the rock goes on and on and
'Cause we belong to the song
And the rock goes on and on and
'Cause we belong to the song
Our melody,
Come and sing it with me.
It's a song where you know you belong.
Our melody,
Come and sing it with me.
Paul Williams, Kenny Ascher
It starts when we're kids
A show-off in school
Makin' faces at friends
You're a clown and a fool
Doin' prat-falls and bird-calls
and bad imitations
Ignoring your homework
Is that dedication?
You work through the mirror
You're getting standing ovations
You're burning with hope
You're building up steam.
What was once juvenilish
Is grown-up and stylish
You're close to your dream
Then somebody out there loves you
Stands up and hollers for more
Paul Williams
There was a time when I was sure
That you and I were truly one
That our future was forever
And would never come undone
And we came so close to being close
And though you cared for me
There's distance in your eyes tonight
So we're not meant to be
The love is gone
The love is gone
The sweetest dream
That you have ever known
The love is gone
The love is gone
I wish you well
But I must leave you now alone
There comes a moment in your life
Like a window and you see
Your future there before you
And how perfect life can be
But adventure calls with unknown voices
Pulling you away
Be careful or you may regret
The choice you make someday
It was almost love
It was almost always
It was like a fairytale we'd live out
You and I
And yes some dream come true
And yes some dreams fall through
And yes the time has come for us to say goodbye
Yes some dreams come true
Yes some dreams fall through
"My birthday!" -Boober
"Yea!" -Red
"Happy birthday, Boober!" -Fraggles
"Let's have a party!" -Gobo
The birthday gifts,
Are on their way,
We can have a super holiday.
Stay a little longer with your friends.
Play a little longer with your friends.
The birthday gifts,
Are on their way,
We can have a super holiday.
(Stay a little longer with your friends)
(Play a little longer with your friends)
"Red, about that business of me liking fun and games." -Boober
"And that stuff about me being afraid." -Red
"Those are secrets, right?" -Boober
"Right!" -Red
The birthday boy,
Is back to stay,
We can have a noisy holiday.
Stay a little longer with your friends.
Play a little longer with your friends.
Stay a little longer with your friends.
Paul Williams
With a thankful
With a endless joy
With a growing family
Every girl and boy
Will be nephew and niece to me
(Nephew and niece to me)
Will bring love, hope and peace to me
(Love hope and peace to me)
Yes, and every night will end
And every day will start
With a grateful prayer
And a thankful heart
With an open smile and with open doors
I will bid you welcome
What is mine is yours
With a glass raised to toast your health
(With a glass raised to toast your health)
And a promise to share the wealth
(Promise to share the wealth)
I will sail a friendly course
File a friendly chart
On a sea of love and a thankful heart
Life is like a journey
Who knows when it ends?
Yes, and if you need to know
The measure of a man
You simply count his friends
Stop and look around you
The glory that you see
Is born again each day
Don't let it slip away
How precious life can be
With a thankful heart that is wide awake
I do make this promise
With every breath I take
Will be used now to sing your praise
(Used now to sing your praise)
And beg you to share my days
With a loving guarantee
That even if we part
I will hold you close in a thankful heart
I will hold you close in a thankful heart
When you think you've got problems
When you're feeling confused
When you don't know from troubles
And your brain is in a shnew
Every Thomas Dick and hairy-face baboon
Thinks he knows which way to go
But I'm telling you the way you want to be
Listen up because I know
Don't be shy don't be lonely
Don't go falling on the floor
Watch you need now is only
Do the stuff you've always done before
Everybody's got some problems of their own
Everybody gets the blues
If you take some good advice I've got for you
Then you won't feel confused
Don't be shy don't be lonely
Don't go falling on the floor
Watch you need now is only
Do the stuff you've always done

Muppet News Anchorman:

Sam: Hmm.
Chorus of Penguins:
They're fin-all-y getting ma-rrr-ied now!
[Musical bridge, sounds of wedding bells]
Miss Piggy:
He'll make me happy
Each time I see him
He'll be the reason
My heart can sing
He'll stand beside me
And now I'm everything.
Kermit:
She'll make me happy
Each time I hold her
And I will follow
where my heart may lead
And she'll be all I'll ever need
Babies:
Days go passing into years
Old Ladies:
Years go passing day by day.
Audience (with sobbing heard):
She'll make him happy
Now and forever
Until forever
their love will grow
She only knows
he'll make her happy
That's all she needs to know.
They'll be so happy
Now and forever
Until forever
their love will grow-
Miss Piggy:
I only know
He'll make me happy
That's all I need...to...know...
Fozzie: (whispering): Hey, Gonzo, I thought you were going to play the
priest?
Gonzo: (enthralled): Shhhh!
Priest:
Do you, Piggy, take this frog to be your lawful wedded husband--do you?
Miss Piggy:
I do...
Priest:
Do you Froggie take this Pig to be your lawful wedded wife until you die?
Kermit:
Well, I? Well....I...?
Priest:
Do you?
Kermit:
(gulp). I do...
Priest:
Then because you share a love so big
I now pronounce you frog and pig.
[THE Kiss.]
Celebration, cheering from all the Muppets. Penguins evidently are tossed
or throw themselves across the aisle.
Kermit:
What better way could anything end?
Hand in hand with a friend.
I can't stop the way I feel
Come my frog, what's the deal
Tell me what you've got in mind
Cause this pig's runnin' out of time
Treat me right, don't make me cry
Or I promise, this pig will fly
She drives me crazy like no one else
She drives me crazy, and I can't help myself
I can't get any rest
People say, I'm obsessed
Everything they say is true
Cause I can't get enough of you
Just say, I do, then it's agreed
I'll be the only pig you'll ever need
She drives me crazy like no one else
She drives me crazy, and I can't help myself
Youwon't make it without me
That is ???, guaranteed
You drive me crazy like no one else
You drive me crazy, and I can't help myself
You drive me crazy like no one else
You drive me crazy, and I can't help myself
You drive me crazy like no one else
Paul Williams
When a cold wind blows it chills you
Chills you to the bone
But there's nothing in nature that
freezes your heart
Like years of being alone
It paints you with indifference
Like a lady paints with rouge
And the worst of the worst
The most hated and cursed
Is the one that we call Scrooge (yeah)
Unkind as any
And the wrath of many
This is that Ebenezer Scrooge
Oh, there goes Mr. Humbug
There goes Mr. Grim
If they gave a prize for bein' mean
the winner would be him
Oh, Scroogey loves his money
'Cause he thinks it gives him power
If he became a flavor you can bet he would be sour
There goes Mr. Skinflint
There goes Mr. Greed
The undisputed master of
The underhanded deed
He charges folks a fortune
For his dark and drafty houses
As poor folk live in misery
It's even worse for mouses
He must be so lonely
He must be so sad
He goes to extremes
To convince us he's bad
He's really a victim of fear and of pride
Look close and there must be
a sweet man inside--Naaaah!
There goes Mr. Outrage
There goes Mr. Sneer
He has no time for friends or fun
His anger makes that clear
Don't ask him for a favor
'Cause his nastiness increases
No crust of bread for those in need
No cheeses for us meeses
There goes Mr. Heartless
There goes Mr. Cruel
He never gives
He only takes
He lets this hunger rule
If bein' mean's a way of life you
practice and rehearse
Then all that work is paying off
'Cause Scrooge is getting worse
Every day
In every way
Cold moon,
Lonely as can be,
Sailing where the starlight fades to blue.
Don't you,
Sometimes feel like me,
Wish the friends you dream about were true?
And they would sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Some day,
You may tumble down,
Sad because your light is nearly through.
Moon stay,
I will search around,
Climb until your light is bright as new.
And then I'll sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Sail away with you.
Get some wire and some glue
'Cause we know what to do
Gonna build a rocket to the stars
We'll use our toys, it's got to fly real far
Pack up my flashlight, some tape and headphones too
Count down to Neptune? Oh, please don't hit the moon
Six, five, four, three, two, one, blast off!
Rock, rock, rocket to the stars
Rock, rock, rocket right past Mars
Rock, rock, rocket in the sky
Rock, rock, rocket go bye-bye
Gonna take our rocket to the stars
I'll bring my telescope so we'll know where we are
I'll make some sandwiches cause spacemen have to eat
I'll bring a parachute in case I have to leave
Who knows what we might see, across the galaxy
Maybe some U.F.O.'s. What if they take my nose?
Blast off into the sky, one question: why?
Gonna take our friend back to her home
Down here on Earth she's lost and all alone
I'll bring my cookies to dip in the milky way
One more question: Do you think we'll be gone all day?

Miss Piggy: (spoken): Kermie--do you remember the opening number?
Kermit: You mean...
Look at me, here I am
Right where I belong
I see that face coming back to me
Like an old familiar song.
What better place could anyone be?
Cause you're here with me!
It's all I've been looking for
And so much more!
And now I'm here
Now you're here!
Cause I am here right where I belong!
[Musical bridge]
All:
Look at us!
Here we are!
Right where we belong!
The curtains' up and the lights are bright
And they're playing our old song!
(Electric Mayhem: Hey Kermit's back! Kermit!)
Kermit:
What better place could anyone be?
Cause you're here with me!
All:
So here we go!
Let's start the show!
Jeff Moss
Look at me
Here I am
Right where I belong
I see that face coming back to me
Like an old familiar song
What better place could anyone be?
Cause you're here with me
It's all I've been looking for
And so much more
And now I'm here
Now you're here
Nothin' can go wrong
Cause I am here right where I belong!
Look at us!
Here we are!
Right where we belong!
The curtains' up and the lights are bright
And they're playing our old song!
What better place could anyone be?
Cause you're here with me!
So here we go!
You're made of rags,
And scraps and tags,
And no one thinks you're real.
And when you go,
They'll never know,
The loneliness I feel.
Dance with me,
My ragtime queen,
Before I set you free.
On lonely days,
You'll know the ways,
That you are just like me.
To make your face,
I found some lace,
And sewed you, every part.
To make you feel,
That you were real,
I gave away my heart.
Dance with me,
My ragtime queen,
Before I set you free.
On lonely days,
You'll know the ways,
That you are just like me.
I believe in magic words
I believe in love
I believe in buried treasure falling from above
One more time the world goes round
One more magic day
Now I've learned the magic sound that speeds it on its way
And it goes pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
Sweet melody
Pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
Neat harmony
Whoa pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
That's music to me
Pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
Pukka pukka squeetily dee
You can learn the magic too
You can learn to sing
You can learn the special words that live in everything
Teach your ear to here the stones
Listen to the trees
Magic is as magic does
It lives in you and me
And it goes pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
Sweet melody
Pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
Neat harmony
Whoa pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
That's music to me
Pukka pukka pukka pukka squeetily boink
Pukka pukka squeetily dee
Pukka pukka squeetily dee
I can almost see a world of harmony.
Music in the air,
Friendship everywhere,
Ties of love uniting you and me.
I can almost see a world of harmony.
Peace and love to share,
Radishes to spare,
Babies everywhere,
In their underwear,
All the world aware,
We can truly care,
Ties of love uniting you and me.
La la la la la
(Squeetly-dee squeetly boing)
La la la-la la la-la
(Deedly-dee diddly doing)
La-la la la la

La-la Pass it on
When it's nice and bright
And it brings delight
Let your heart choose right
Gotta pass it on
When it rolls real good
Like a rollie should
Then it's understood
Gonna pass it on
When you're giving love away
Love will come again to stay
What you give is what you gain
When you pass it on
When I give a gift to you
I know you're gonna give it too
That's why givin's what we do
As we pass it on
Pass it on Pass it on

Wish upon all the good things that you do

Love will come again to stay
What you give is what you gain
When you pass it on
When I give a gift to you
I know you're gonna give it too
That's why givin's what we do
As we pass it on
Fraggle, Fraggle, two by four,
Let's go through the pantry door.
Go through thin and go through fat.
Let's go look for Boober's hat.
But my hat just isn't there.
Then let's go find a juicy pear.
If that juicy pear is gooey,
Let's go find some chicken chop suey.
If that chicken chop suey is tough,
Let's go find some stroganoff.
If that stroganoff is phony,
Let's go find some macaroni.
Macaroni is too long.
We're closer now then ever before
How much alike we are perhaps we're long last bothers
There's love in our world and we're showing it more
We even think the you know there may be others
Our world says welcome stranger
Everybody's a friend
We can always use a friend
Favorite story's to tell
In our world
Some say our world is getting too small
So many things to learn but well enjoy each lesson
I say with kindness "There's room for us all"
Problems don't worry us when half the fun is guessing
Our world is always changing , Everydays a surprise
Live a lifetime of surprise, Love can open your eyes
In our world
When night lays sad upon you go watch the simple sunrise
Love can open your eyes to our world
Some say our world is getting too small
So many things to learn but well enjoy each lesson
I say with kindness "There's room for us all"
Problems don't worry us when half the fun is guessing
Our world is always changing , Everydays a surprise
In our world
In our world
Headed down the road I'm going round and round
Walking through the light and through the free and easy land
All I want to know is how the world goes round
All I want to be is a traveling be a wandering man
Well you go one way
See it's some kind of fun way
Start exploring the two way
Wow it's just like a thruway
When you get to the three way
Can't be sure it's a free way
Got to find me the true way
That's the only way home
Well you go one way
See it's some kind of fun way
Start exploring the two way
Wow it's just like a thruway
When you get to the three way
Can't be sure it's a free way
Got to find me the true way
Never before have two souls joined so freely and so fast. For me this is heaven like the door's and why should they take back---- oooh they would'nt dare. Is this an angels wish for men? ,laugh when we touched we made it ours . Never before and never again aaaaaaaaaaaagh.
Give me one and give me two,
Cover me with muck and goo.
Give me three and give me four,
Cover me with guck and gore.
One, two, muck and goo,
Down my sock and in my shoe.
Three, four, guck and gore,
Spin me 'round and sing some more.
Give me five and give me six,
Cover me with big, fat sticks.
Give me seven, give me eight.
Cover me with slime and slate.
Five, six and big, fat sticks,
An ice cream cone for me to lick.
Seven, eight, slime and slate,
Sing it now and don't be late.
Give me, give me number nine,
A bag of bones and a ball of twine.
Give me, give me number ten,
Run back home and start again.
Nine, nine, a ball of twine,
First it's yours and then it's mine.
Ten, ten, that's the end,
So run back home and start again.

We're Marley and Marley
Averious and greed
We took advantage of the poor
Just ignored the needy
We specialized in causing pain
Spreading fear and doubt
And if you could not pay the rent
We simply threw you out
We're Marley and Marley
Our hearts were painted black
We should have known our evil deeds
Would put us both in shackles
Captive
Bound
We're double-ironed
Exhausted by the weight
As freedom comes from giving love
So, prison comes with hate
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo
Doomed, Scrooge!
You're doomed for all time
Your future is a horror story
Written by your crime
Your chains are forged
By what you say and do
So, have your fun
When life is done
A nightmare waits for you
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo
We're Marley and Marley
Whoooooo

HIM:
Was I dumb or was I blind
Or did my heart just lose its mind
Why'd I go and throw our perfect dream away
HER:
Looking back I'll never know
How I ever let you go
But destiny could see we deserved to have another day
BOTH:
Love led us here
Right back to where we belong
We followed a star
And here we are
Now heaven seems so near
Love led us here
HIM:
I confess it's sad but true
I lost myself when I lost you
But I held your mem'ry through each lonely night
HER:
Let's forget what's gone before
Now we both know so much more
And we've been given another chance to make it work out right
BOTH:
Love led us here
Right back to where we belong
We followed a star
And here we are
Now heaven seems so near
Love led us here
HIM:
Now I know that life can take you by surprise
And sweep you off your feet
BOTH:
Did this happen to us or are we just dreaming
We followed a star
And here we are
Now heaven seems so near
Love led us here
HIM:
So take my hand
HER:
And have no fear
BOTH:
We'll be alright
You don't know how it tastes until you try.
You don't know how to laugh till you cry.
You don't know where you've been till you're homeward bound,
And you don't know what you've lost until it's found.
(Yodel)
Once I thought the world was made for me.
Once I thought experience was free.
Never knew you'd have to pay the price,
Then I found you sometimes pay it twice.
You don't know how it tastes until you try.
You don't know how to laugh until you cry.
You don't know where you've been until you're homeward bound,
And you don't know what you've lost until it's found.
(Yodel)
Now I've done some living and I know,
Everything you gain is bound to go.
Then one day my luck just turned around.
The thing I loved and lost is lost and found.
You don't know how it tastes until you try.
You don't know how to laugh until you cry.
You don't know where you've been until you're homeward bound,
And you don't know what you've lost until it's found.
You don't know how it tastes until you try.
You don't know how to laugh until you cry.
You don't know where you've been until you're homeward bound,
And you don't know what you've lost until it's found.
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it spell it sell it
Just for you
Now then listen to me Fraggles
Give your Fraggle mouths a-waggle
You can chew a Doozer tower till you're blue (you're blue)
But there's a mighty day a coming
When the food will hit your tummy
And you'll know that what I'm telling you is true (is true)
So if you want to get a hold of something extra good as gold
You gotta stop and give a thought to what you do (what you do)
Never eat another tower till I tell you what it's doing to you
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it spell it sell it
Just for you
Well you eat a Doozer tower
And it's as pretty as a flower
And a flower's what you pick up in a field (a field)
But the field can have a hole
And you can fall in while you stroll
And a Gorg can come along to find a meal (a meal)
And he can pack you in a sack
And you can try to scramble back
But then you'll never, ever, ever get free (get free)
'Cause every time you eat a tower you'll be shut up for eternity
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it, spell it, sell it
Just for you
And if you want to hear a story
That is horrible and gory
Let me tell you about a Fraggle I knew (I knew)
He was sitting on a byway
Eating up a Doozer highway
In the way a hungry Fraggle will do (will do)
Then he started in a-changing and he started rearranging
And I promise you this story is true (is true)
By the time it was done he was a human being through and through
Listen to Convincing John
And all your troubles will be gone
He's gonna tell it, spell it, sell it, (but don't eat it!)
Music grows in the rose
Rock and rain and the blowin' snowstorm
Everything seems to sing
Everywhere I go
I say 1, 2, play me do
Let me sound as sweet as you
Play me wide
Play me long
Let me be your song
Play me down on the ground
Song comes singing from the midnight places
Raise me high in the sky
Song comes drifting through
I say 1, 2, play me do
Let me sound as sweet as you
Play me wide
Play me long
Let me be your song
Play me high
Play me low
Play me where the wild winds blowing
Play me wide
Play me long
Play me for your song
I say 1, 2 , play me do
Let me sound as sweet as you
Play me wide
Play me long
It's not that easy being 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 that easy being 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!
Paul Williams
It's in the singing of a street corner choir
It's going home and getting warm by the fire
It's true
Wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
A cup of kindness that we share with another
A sweet reunion with a friend or a brother
In all the places you find love
It feels like Christmas
It is the season of the heart
A special time of caring
The ways of love made clear
It is the season of the spirit
The message if we hear it
Is make it last all year
It's in the giving of a gift to another
A pair of mittens that were made by your mother
It's all the ways that we show love
That feel like Christmas
A part of childhood we'll always remember
It is the summer of the soul in December
Yes, when you do your best for love
It feels like Christmas
It is the season of the heart
A special time of caring
The ways of love made clear
It is the season of the spirit
The message if we hear it
Is make it last all year
It's in the singing of a street corner choir
It's going home and getting warm by the fire
It's true, wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
It's true, wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
It feels like Christmas
It feels like Christmas
There's a story going round
And it started long ago
And everyone keeps telling it
In places high and low
And because my heart is weary
I really want to know
Is it true what they say is it true?
Is it true there is magic
That we have never known?
Is it true there are powers
That we can call our own?
Is it true there is someone
Whose wonders stand alone?
Is it true what they say is it true?
Is it true?
Not because they told me so
Is it true?
Not because the story's old
Is it true?
Not until you really know
Is it true?
Not until you feel it grow
Is it true?
Now I see it with my eyes
Is it true?
Now I've see the glory rise
Is it true?
Now I know the reason why
Is it true?
Is it true that the doubters
Say that they believe?
Is it true that the skeptics finally receive?
For a heart that is weary
It matters through and through
Is it true what they say
Is it true?
But I know when I wander with an achin' in my heart
We been waitin' round and hopin'
For the magic time to start
And now there's no more waitin'
Good news for me and you
'Cause it's true yes it's true yes it's true
Is it true?
Not because they told me so
Is it true? Not because the story's old
Is it true? Not until you really know
Is it true? Not until you feel it grow
Is it true? Now I see it with my eyes
Is it true? Now I've see the glory rise
Is it true? Now I know the reason why
When I was just a little bitty trash heap
Mama told me Child there's something you should know (you should know):
Everybody's got to have a special dream that they can dream
That means troubles that means pain that means woe woe woe
That means troubles that means pain that means woe woe woe
Now I've lived some and I've learned some
But my mama told me all I need to know (need to know):
Everybody that I meet just seems to make my life complete
Bring me troubles bring me pain they bring me woe woe woe
They bring me troubles bring me pain they bring me woe woe woe
First they lay down their heavy burden (heavy burden)
Then I show them what to do and where to go (where to go)
Well I'm a lucky lucky girl
I'm like a swine before a pearl
I see troubles I see pain I see woe woe woe
I see troubles I see pain I see woe woe woe
Oh gimme your troubles
Give me your pa-a-in

Baby Rowlf at piano
Baby Piggy:
No matter what life may bring,
no matter what I may do,
be sure of one special thing
I'm gonna always be loving you.
Tempo speeds up, Rowlf plays an awesome piano intro...
Baby Piggy:
I'm gonna be a movie star
And I'm gonna learn to drive a car
Gonna be a vetenarian too
And I'm gonna always love you.

Then I think I'll study criminal law
And I'm gonna scuba dive too.
And I'm gonna always love you.

I'm always here.
I'm never there.
I'm never, ever anywhere.
Excepting here, 'cause here is where I'm in.
But when I go from here to there,
My here comes with me everywhere,
Jeff Moss
He'll make me happy
Each time I see him
He'll be the reason
My heart can sing
He'll stand beside me
And I'll have everything
She'll make me happy
Each time I hold her
And I will follow
Where my heart may lead
And she'll be all I'll ever need
Days go passing into years
Years go passing day by day

Now and forever
Until forever
Their love will grow
She only knows
He'll make her happy

They'll be so happy
Now and forever
Until forever
Their love will grow
I only know
He'll make me happy
Oh, there's no fire in the fireplace
There's no carpet on the floor
Don't try to order dinner
There's no kitchen anymore
But if the road's been kinda bumpy
And you need to rest a spell
Well, welcome home to Happiness Hotel
If you've got luggage keep it handy
But you're running out of luck
'Cause the bellhops ain't to organized
And the elevator's stuck
Still if you don't mind friendly animals
And can learn to stand the smell
Well, welcome home to Happiness Hotel
Welcome home
Oh, welcome home
No matter where you wander
You will never do as well
Okay the lobby's looking shabby
And it's got the wrong address
And the whole dern thing has been condemned by 'Merican Express
Still the management is cheerful though the whole joint's gone to hell
Well welcome home to Happiness Hotel
Oh there are bugs
There are bugs
And there are lice
There are lice
Sure we have our little problems
But you'll never beat the price
You've got every kind of critter
You've got ev'ry kind of pest
But we treat 'em all as equals
Jes' like any other guest
Though you're cleaner than the others
Still as far as we can tell
You'll fit right in to Happiness Hotel
Take a pinch of this and a shake of that
And a splash of somethin' good
'Cause the cook just knows by the twitch in her nose
The way a good cook should
Take an ounce of this and a pound of that
And a ton of something else
And you stir it 'round and you let it brown
Till the whole concoction melts
Give it a whoop with a loop-the-loop a ladle and a scoop
It's a good-time goombah soup
A good time can be had by all
With a good-time goombah soup
It'll rock your socks till you caterwaul
That good-time goombah soup
It's a soup that laughs and barks and jeers
It's the old-time goombah soup
It'll pin your ears till you give three cheers
It's a good-time goombah soup
Everybody wants some more
It's an old-time goombah soup
With a hey and a ho and I love it so
The good-time goombah soup
Put a little shake here
And a little shake there
Well they threw us in a cage and there's no key.
We gotta find a way that we can get free.
There's just one thing that might be found.
Gotta rock this joint till the bars fall down.
'Cause everybody here's gotta shout till we all break out.
Gotta rock our way to freedom.
Gotta roll right back and seat(?) 'em.
Gotta flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.
Mokey took a stick and she banged bars.
Red started rockin' till she seen stars.
Boober blew a harp like a wild thing.
Got myself a guitar and began to sing.
'Cause everybody here gotta shout till we all break out.
We're gonna rock our way to freedom.
We're gonna roll right back and seat(?) 'em.
We're gonna flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.
Back, back, back, back, back to Fraggle Rock (3 X's)
Don't need no key don't need bail.
Gonna bust right out of this old jail.
Gonna beat those bars till they drop their locks.
Gonna spring ourselves loose with the Fraggle Rock rock.
'Cause everybody here's gotta shout till we all break out.
We gonna rock our way to freedom.
We gonna roll right back and seat(?) 'em.
Gonna flip flop skipity hop,
Back to Fraggle Rock.
Gonna flip flop skipity hop,
Every day the world begins again
Sunny skies or rain
Come and follow me
Every sunrise shows me more and more
So much to explore
Come and follow me
Every morning every day
Every evening calling me away
While the sun goes 'round
I'll still be found
Following the sound
Something's calling me
When the world goes drifting back to bed
Memories in my head
Wonders follow me
Every morning every day
Every evening calling me away
Every morning every day
We've found the way,
To live on easy street.
No more troubles.
No more cares and woes.
Oh, happy day!
It's made our lives complete.
'Cause easy is the only way to go.
The wa-a-a-a-ay, way to go.
We've found the way (found the way),
To live on easy street (on easy street).
No more trouble.
No more cares and woes (no more cares and woes).
Oh, happy day (oh, happy day)!

Dreaming of someone,
As gentle as the dew.
Graceful as a someone can be.
Dreaming of someone,
And feeling very blue,
Because I know that someone isn't me.
And how I wish I could change myself.
Change to somebody new.
And how I long to exchange myself.
How I wish I were you.
Dreaming of making,
A garden in my mind,
Where poems grow like leaves on a tree.
Dreaming and waking,
And every time I find,
That extra special someone isn't me.
And how I wish I could change myself.
Change to somebody new.
And how I long to exchange myself.
I used to think that I was just a no-count
I used to think that I would get no where
But then I learned that when I'm feelin' low down
I'm back up on my feet if I remember all my dreams
I used to get to feeling so down hearted
I used to even hate the color green
But every time I think I cant get started
I think of all my dreams and then I'm right back on the beam
You've got to dream for your inspiration
Dream of what you can do
Cause with yourdreams and some perspiration
Anything within your dreaming is within your reach
I used to think that I was nothing special
That I was just another pretty face
But now I know that I will be successful
If I always do just what I really want to do
Dream of your secret wishes
Dream of your highest hopes
'Cause if you dream
You can make your dreams come true
When you've fin'lly decided
Things arent as bad as they seem
You just cant deny it
Where there's a will there's a dream
Dream for your inspiration
Dream of what you can do
'Cause if you dream
You can make your dreams come true
Ah dream a dream and make it true
That's what Doozers like to do
And building is the Doozer way to go two three four
'Cause every day the world is new
There's dreams to pay attention to
And building is the surest way we know two three four
Set your shoulder
Move that boulder
'Up two three four 'up two three four
Make our dreams work
Through our team work
'Up two three four 'up
And when the Doozer day is done
There's still some time for Doozer fun
So take your helmets off and set them down two three four
There's dreams to dream
There's work to do
But after all the work is through
There's still some Doozer dreams to go around two three four
Set your shoulder
Move that boulder
'Up two three four 'up two three four
Make our dreams work
Through our team work
No one knows where we're going
No one knows where we've been
Strangers follow us dangers fall on us
Life play tricks and they're mean
Only one thing can save us
Only one thing will do
Stand up nice and straight Don't capitulate
Courage lives and it's you
Catch a tail by the tiger
Take the horns by the bull
A bird in need is a friend indeed
So pull the eyes over the wool
"Uh, Gobo I think you got it backwards. The saying is that you
gotta catch a tiger by the tail "
"Sure, If you want to do it the easy way. On the other hand
if you really want bravery. then you gotta "
Catch a tail by the tiger
Take the horns by the bull
A bird in need is a friend indeed
So pull the eyes over the wool
Steely gaze in the sunrise
Lonesome walk in the dawn
Sometimes lonely but living only for truth
When truth may be gone
Danger lurks at the crossroads
Shadows loom on the wall
Sounds behind us and hounds will find us
And death and taxes and all
So catch a tail by the tiger
Take the horns by the bull
A bird in need is a friend indeed
So pull the eyes over the wool
Catch a tail by the tiger
Take the horns by the bull
A bird in need is a friend indeed

Dr. Teeth:
Ohhh yeah! Whooo!
Everybody's lover, everybody's brother, I wanna be your lifetime friend.
Crazy as a rocket, nothin in my pocket, I keep it at the rainbow's end.
I never think of money, I think of milk 'n honey, grinnin like a cheshire
cat.
I focus on the pleasure, somethin' I can treasure, can you picture that?
Can you picture that?
Dr. Teeth: (spoken) Hey, Floyd, Pick a verse!
Floyd Pepper:
Let me take your picture, add it to the mixture, there it is I got you now!
Really nothin' to it, anyone can do it, it's easy and we all know how.
Now begins the changin', mental rearrangin', nothing's really where it's
Dr. Teeth:
Now the Eiffel Tower's holdin up a flower. Can you picture that?
[Musical bridge]
Floyd:
Fact is there's nothin out there you can't do
Yeah, even Santa Claus believes in you.
Dr. Teeth:
Beat down the walls, begin, believe, behold, begat.
Floyd:
Be a better drummer, be an up and comer. Can you picture that?
Animal:
CAN YOU PICTURE THAT??!!
Floyd:
All of us are winnin, pickin and a-grinnin, Lordy but I love to jam
Janice
Jelly-belly gigglin, dancin and a-wigglin, honey that's the way I am!
Dr. Teeth:
Lost my heart in Texas, Northern lights affect us, I keep it underneath my
hat,
Aurora Borealis, shinin down on Dallas! Can you picture that?
Can you picture that?
(Chorus)
Can you picture? You gotta see it in your mind!
Can you picture? You know it's quick and easy to find!
Can you picture? You don't have to buy a frame!
Can you picture? Can you picture that?
Can you picture that?
Dr. Teeth:
Use it if you need it
Floyd:
Don't forget to feed it!
All:
Can you picture that?
When you're starting to feel some fear,

Jump up, turn around, cross over.
When you're starting to be scared all night,
Brave boy jump up gonna make it right.
Jump up, turn around, cross over.
Here's a spell,

Jump up, turn around, cross over.
Jump up, turn around, cross over.
Well, come on mister, got to be brave boy.

Way down south
Way down in Borneo
There's a wild man called the Borneo
Way down on Borneo Bay
Even though you've got a corneo
You'll dance till the break of dawneo
Way down on Borneo Bay
Wild man stands with his clothes all torneo
Toot toot toot on a bamboo horneo
Then the bamboo baby start to sway
Start to sway
When you see them dance the borneo
You'll just put your jewels in pawneo
Yorn desh born, der ritt de gitt der gue,
Orn desh, dee born desh, de umn bork! bork! bork!
"I Hope That Something Better Comes Along"
You can't live with 'em, you can't live without 'em.
There's sometin' irresistabl-ish about 'em.
We grin and bear it 'cause the nights are long.
I hope that somethin' better comes along.
It's no good complainin', and pointless to holler.
If she's a beauty she'll get under your collar.
She made a monkey out of old King Kong,
I hope that somethin' better comes along.
Ah, but what could be better than a saucy Irish Setter
When puppy love comes on strong?
Or a collie that's classy, a laddie needs a lassie,
A lover and wife gives you a new leash on life!
I don't mean to scare ya, my friend, but I betcha
Come "Father's Day" the litter bug's gonna getcha.
Ther urge is righteous but the face is wrong.
I hope that somethign' better comes along.
Still, it's fun when they're fetchin'
And agree to see an etchin'
That you keep at your lily pad.
There is no solution, it's part of evolution,
You'll soon hear the souls,
The little feet of tadpoles!
(Ah, Rowlf, tadpoles don't have feet!)
(Oh. Sorry about that.... 2, 3, 4)
There's no limitation to mixin' and matchin'
Some get an itchin' for a critter they've been scratchin'
A skunk was badgered the results were strong.
I hope that somethin' better,
I hope that somethin' better,
I hope that somethin' better comes along.

fast enough . . .]
> [E. walks in with pot and plops it on B.'s head]
> E: Here Bert, try this on!
> B: Hey, hey, Ernie, what are you doing? Get that pot off my head! Why?
> E: Well haa, ya see Bert, a little while ago, I dropped and broke the
> cookie jar.
> B: Oh, Ernie, you didn't!
> E: Mmm hmmm.
B: Oh well, all right, so you broke the cookie jar, but what's it gotta do
with that pot there, huh?
E: Well you see, I had to put the cookies somewhere...
B: Yeah?
E: Bert, um... just a second. I... I... I'll show you, Bert.
B: [looks at camera] I don't understand.
E: [brings in sugar bowl with cookies] See, I broke the cookie jar and so I
had to put the cookies in the sugar bowl, see? [takes a taste of one]
B: Well... yeah, Ernie, but but if you put the cookies in the sugar bowl,
then where'd ya put the sugar?
E: Well, I'll show you, Bert! [famous Ernie hmm] Hmm hmm hmm [leaves with
bowl and Bert looks at camera]
B: Ya show me. [does the famous head tilt]
E: Ok, well you see, I put the sugar in the flower pot here.
B: In the flower pot?! Oh great... just great. Well _where'd_ you put the
flower that was growing there, huh?
E: Oh I'll show you, Bert! [takes away the pot]
B: Ya gonna show me again... I don't get this.
E: [brings in milk bottle and flower] Ya see, I had to plant this flower here
into this milk bottle, see... nicely planted, I watered it and everthing.
B: [Looking very stunned] [E. looks straight into camera all proud, shaking
his head about his nose] ERNIE!!!! [Shaking head]
E: [Calmly] Hmm?
B: Well now WHERE is the milk?!
E: Oh, I'll show you, Bert.
B: [E. leaves] Ya gonna show me where the milk is too. Oh Ernie, I ...
[looks at E. returning with a root beer bottle.. stunned]
E: See I put the milk into the, uh, soda bottle
B: [Gets close to E. in quiet voice gradually getting louder] Ernie... I'm
trying to be patient, but __where__ is the soda??
E: Oh just a second, Bert, I'll show you... [calmly as usual, Bert getting
more stunned and irritated gives out his famous]
B: Aaaaaaahhhh!
E: [Brings in the soda-filled fishbowl] It wasn't easy, but I put the soda in
the [straining] mmm fishbowl
B: In the fishbowl?! Ernie, this is CRAZY!! Now where are the fish?!?
E: Oh... well, I'll show you, Bert. [even calmer than before]
B: [stares into camera as E. leaves for a few seconds and ...] Ooohhhh,
Ernie, what are you doing now? [Mouth wider than ever in shock]
E: Oh, I gotta carry it out here, Bert... I put the fish in... to... the
cowboy hat, ya see.
B: [looks down into hat as fish squirts water in B.'s face] Oh, no... Eeeyah!
[wipes faces stands there with mouth firmly closed very angry]
E: [points calmly at fish in hat] Take it easy there, fella.
B: [angrily] Ernie, Ernie, that is MY cowboy hat...
E: Yeah, so? [VERY calmly]
B: But ya, you but the fish in it, Now what am I gonna do when I wanna play
cowboy?
E: Oh, umm, well [reaches for pot and puts it on B.'s head] Ride em cowboy,
Bert! [pats Bert on back] [E.'s patented laugh] Keheeheeheehee
[End music begins with Bert standing there as usual, and Ernie leaving.
There was one neat trick done in it, at the end when Ernie put the pot
on Bert's head (probably at the beginning.. which I didn't see). You
know how Ernie's hands are real and the person's arm go in at his
elbows, which are always below the counter/stage, but to get the pot
on the head, the hand person, had to make a quick .. nicely-done move
behind Bert and up with the pot.. with Elbow behind Bert so Ernie's

If you need a friend to pat your little head
If you need a pal to play with you
If you need a chum to lift your spirits up
This is what a special friend will do-do-do-do-do
Well a friend never bends or pretends when a friend is in need
So depend on a friend who's a friend to his friend indeed
No a friend never bends or pretends when his friend is in need
So depend on a friend who's a friend to his friend indeed
Well sometimes you'll be down and need some boosting
Sometimes you'll be zooming way too high
I'll be there to raise you or to roost you
I'll be here to look you in the eye-yi-yi-yi-yi
Well a friend never bends or pretends when a friend is in need
So depend on a friend who's a friend to his friend indeed
No a friend never bends or pretends when his friend is in need
There's a story goin' round about a hero of history
Well I guess I better tell you that the hero of the story is me
And if you wanna understand all the hullaballoo
Then it's time thatcha heard what I'm sayin' to you
If you got what it takes to grow
You gotta take whatcha got and go
And if you got what it takes then take whatcha got
And get goin'
Doodle-ee-doo Doodle-ee-doo Um-um
Doodle-ee-doo Doodle-ee-doo
Well I told you once and I don't wanna tell you twice
I got a heart fulla fire
I got a head fulla good advice
You know the world's plum full of gol' darn fools
Tryin' to run your life
With their gosh-darn rules
If you got what it takes to grow
You gotta take whatcha got an' go
And if you got what it takes then take whatcha got
And get goin'
Doodle-ee-doo Doodle-ee-doo Um-um
Doodle-ee-doo Doodle-ee-doo
So if you wanna get ahead
Get a load of what I'm telling you
Don't you listen to the lies
That the world keeps telling you
Don't hang around with all of them fools
Come and get a gander at the golden rules
If you got what it takes to grow
You gotta take whatcha got an' go
And if you got what it takes then take whatcha got
And get goin'
It's not easy bein' green
Having to spend each day
The color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer
Bein' 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 on 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 a mountain
Or importan like a river 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'm green and it'll do fine
When every dream you've had,
Has gone from good to bad,
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
When every road you choose,
Gives the loser's blues,
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
Well, when you try all day,
Try all night,
Try until you drop,
Until it don't come right.
If you're gonna grow, you know you,
Gotta go with the flow.
When the dark comes down,
The night is all around,
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
You know you can't pretend,
You're looking straight at the end.
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
Well when you're deep in fear,
Right up to here,
It's a very ???? atmosphere.
If you're gonna grow, you know you,
Gotta go with the flow.
Get a move on.
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
(Get a move on)
(Get a move on)
(Go with the flow)
"I hate this." -Boober
"Oh, yeah. Then how come your tail is wagging?" -Red
Get a move on.
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
And when the world won't work.
You're feeling like a jerk.
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
And when it's down the tubes.
You're feeling like a boob.
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
When everything's good-bye.
You're ready to die.
You wouldn't give a nickel for an apple pie.
If you're gonna grow, you know you,
Gotta go with the flow.
Get a move on.
Get a move on.
Go with the flow.
Is there more I could have said?
Now they're only pictures in my head.
That's why my green is feeling grey
Sometimes even frogs have rainy days.
Remember when the stage caved in when you were rocking out?
Who'd have thought your smorgasbord would be hard to live without?
If we could do it all again, just another chance to entertain
Would anybody watch or even care?
Or did something break we cant repair?
Your cannonball trajectory, it always gave me hope.
They may have been unbearable but I still loved your jokes
Is there more I could have said?
Now they're only pictures in my head.
Could we do it all again, make them laugh like we did then?
We could harmonise for one more song,
KERMIT
But I'm standing here instead.
Check out that noise in the background! I'm mad green right now. It's a biodiesel generator!
I'm using it to run the computer studio for the recording of this album!
I got it with this gift certificate I won at the Save the Sea Turtles Marathon Run dude!
Check it out! I wrote all of the lyrics on my arm because trees are too important to be
used as paper you know what I'm saying? Let's get sustainable!
Verse 1:
I got a letter from Al Gore the other day
I opened and read it, it said we're in trouble
It said "Go Green!" What's that mean?
Bought a hybrid hummer to save gasoline
Went to Live Earth in my private jet
Just like Sting and Kanye West
Let's save the earth with area rock
(Pyrotechnics are very sustainable)
(I'm going green) Can't you see? I keep the AC above 63
(I'm going green) Hardcore like Slayer, here's 27 fliers on the ozone layer
(I'm going green) Because I care, use organic aerosols in my hair
(I'm going green) So my grandkids will remember,
when you couldn't buy ocean property in Denver
CHORUS
It's not easy being green (it's not easy)
Having to change that old routine (it's not easy)
The climate change could be extreme
It's not easy... it's not easy
Verse 2:
Went to Sea World with a giant net
To save the whales but they got upset
Brought Shamu to the parking lot, didn't get far
Couldn't even fit one fin in my car
Recycling's great, but my roommate didn't smile
When I told him what I did to his old-school Beatles vinyl
Gotta separate plastics form the glass
Even though it's a pain the morning
(I'm going green) Aerosol cans are terrible so I
Spread the word with spray painted signs
(I'm going green) Love animals for real, you see me clubbing with baby seals
(I'm going green) Bought a Prius to save on gas
But I fly every weekend in first class
(I'm going green) So my grandkids will remember,
when it wasn't 500 degrees in December
CHORUS
It's not easy being green (it's not easy)
There Will be Blood for gasoline (it's not easy)
I drink your milkshake like that scene
It's not easy... it's not easy
It's not easy being green (it's not easy)
Santa Claus's sleigh will need jetskis (it's not easy)
The polar bears might need sunscreen
It's not easy... it's not easy
I bought size five Vans at the local mall
To make my carbon footprint half as small
I wrote this song to express how I felt
About climate change and glacial melt
You know the movie
The Day After Tomorrow?
That could happen dude
I even rap in haikus - what!
Manhattan (could be under water)
LA (could be under water)
Vancouver (could be under water)
London (could be under water)
Detroit (could be under water)
St. Louis (could be under water)
Chicago (could be under water)
New Jersey (but who'd miss Jersey?)
Chorus:
It's not easy (it's not easy)
It's not easy (it's not easy)
It's not easy (it's not easy)
Woah, oh
It's not easy being green (it's not easy)
We'll tour New York by submarine (it's not easy)
We'll scuba dive the Bronx and Queens
I hear you loud and clear my dear but it's nothing I haven't heard
Excuse me if I'm not hanging on your every word
I can recite each line by heart
I know my role... i know my part
But the truth of the matter is I'm through with all this chatter
Enough about you baby-let's talk about me
You don't even have a clue lately what I really need
You forgot how to listen
That's what I'm missin'
And I just wanna scream enough about you baby
Let's talk about me
I must've dropped a hundred hints and you let 'em fly right by
Time and again I find myself just wonderin' why
Now when I try to talk to you
You're not the girl I thought I knew
Well, here's some good advice let me get a word in edgewise
Enough about you baby-let's talk about me
You don't even have a clue lately what I really need
You forgot how to listen
That's what I'm missin'
And I just wanna scream enough about you baby
Let's talk about me
Take some time to see what's on my mind
You'll be amazed at what you'll find
Enough about you baby-let's talk about me
You don't even have a clue lately what I really need
You forgot how to listen
That's what I'm missin'
And I just wanna scream enough about you baby
Let's talk about me
Let's talk about me
Me, me, me, me, me-yeah
Welcome back
Welcome back
I can hear your friends
Are so glad up in heaven
Welcome back
Welcome back
There's a party going on
At Cloud 11
Welcome back
Welcome back
Let's pretend we're still together
Till it's daytime
Welcome back
Welcome back
When the morning comes
You'll melt away in sunshine
I hide my tears behind this tune
Still talking to
Your echoes in this room
Not one of us had ever guessed
They'd fade away so soon
Welcome back
Welcome back
Let's forget the words we had
Or left unspoken
Welcome back
Welcome back
There's no sense in me denying
My heart is broken
Welcome back
Welcome back
Please forgive me
I take the privilege to cry
Welcome back
Welcome back
May our love stand out forever
This is goodbye
I take the privilege to cry
Everything is great
Everything is grand
We've got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand
Everything is perfect
It's falling into place
I can't seem to wipe this smile off my face
[Life's a happy song]
When there's someone by my side to sing along
Everything is great
We'll live happily ever after
And we'll keep giving the world the third greatest gift
Laughter!
Si, movie's almost over
It's time to say "So Long!"
[Spoken:]
Will you stop singing? You already sung this song!
Life's a happy song
When there's someone by your side to sing along
[Spoken:]
We're happier when you don't sing!
We've got everything that we need
We can be whatever we want to be
Nothing we can't do
The skies are blue
When it's me and you, and you, and you, and you...
Well, all of you!
La la la...
We've got everything that we need
We can be whatever we want to be
Nothing we can't do
The skies are blue
When it's me and you, and you, and you
Life's a happy song
When there's someone by your side to sing
Life's a happy song
Me me me me me me me me me mee
Life's a happy song
When there's someone...
(someone)
By your side
Everything is great
Everything is grand
We've got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand
Everything is perfect
It's falling into place
I can't seem to wipe this smile off my face

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told, and some choose to believe it
I know they're wrong, wait and see
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
Who said that every wish would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that, and someone believed it
Look what it's done so far
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
And what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
All of us under its spell
We know that it's probably magic
Have you been half asleep, and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm supposed to be
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers, and me
La-da-da, de-da-da-do

[VERSE:]
What went on last night
Was it just another stupid fight
Will we be again
Or will we both regret this in the end
[CHORUS:]
Why can't I forget you and everything you do
It's so hard to do
Why can't I forget you and everything you do
It's so hard to do
[VERSE:]
Consider me your friend
Until you do that stupid shit again
I believed all you told
Then you left me hanging out so cold
[CHORUS:]
Why can't I forget you and everything you do
It's so hard to do
Why can't I forget you and everything you do
It's so hard to do
[BRIDGE]
[CHORUS:]
Why can't I forget you and everything you do
It's so hard to do

It's so hard to do
Why can't I forget you and everything you do
It's time to put our music
It's time to light the lights
It's time to meet the Muppets on the Muppet Show tonight.
It's time to put on makeup
It's time to dress up right
It's time to raise the curtain on the Muppet Show tonight.
Why do we always come here
I guess we'll never know
It's like a kind of torture
To have to watch the show.
To introduce out guest star
That's what I'm here to do
So it really makes me happy
To introduce to you
So now let's get it started
Why don't we get it started
It's time to get things started
On the most sensational inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational
This is what we call the Muppet Show!
The most sensational inspirational, celebrational, Muppetational
Load up on guns
Bring your friends
It's fun to lose
And to pretend
She's overboard
Myself assured
I know I know
A dirty word
Hello (x 16)
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
Im worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
Hello (x 16)
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
And I forget
Just what it takes
And yet I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard
It's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
Hello (x 16)
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
Life is full of sweet surpises
Everyday's a gift
The sun comes up and I can feel it lift my spirit
Fills me up with laughter, fills me up with song
I look into the eyes of love and know that I belong
Bless us all, who gather here
The loving family I hold dear
No place on earth, compares with home
And every path will bring me back from where I rome
Bless us all, that as we live
We always comfort and forgive
We have so much, that we can share
With those in need we see around us everywhere
Let us always love eachother
Lead us to the light
Let us hear the voice of reason, singing in the night
Let us run from anger and catch us when we fall
Teach us in our dreams and please, yes please
Bless us one and all
Bless us all with playful years
With noisy games and joyful tears
We reach for You and we stand tall
And in our prayers and dreams
We ask You bless us all
We reach for You and we stand tall
And in our prayers and dreams we ask you
