Whenever anybody mentions potato salad, I have to say “SURE THING, KING!”
Three of these things
belong together…
Three of these things
are kinda the same…
mm
I had a record when I was little called “The Count Counts”.

One!
One bat!
Mwa ha ha ha!
Two!
Two bats!
Mwa ha ha ha!
Anyone remember…
Wanda the Witch wore a wig on a windy Wednesday in Walla Walla, Washington…
Or how about the “Monsterpiece Theater” (with your host Cookie Monster) production of “Me, Claudius” with an inchworm (instead of a serpent) making its’ way across the fresco?
Ooooh, i remember the crocodile king with the seven sons. Something about seven rings or something and the croc king fell or something. Anyone remember the song that goes with this bit? Please?
This is what happens after years of smoking weed. :smack:
Siiinnnng, sing a song,
Sing out loud, sing out strong
Sing of good things, not bad,
Sing of happy, not sad…
Um, hello? That was Alistair Cookie hosting!
Said the crocodile king to his seventh son,
“Son, you win the crown!
You didn’t bring me diamonds or rubies
But you helped me up when I was down.”
Sorry, max, that’s all I’ve got at the moment.
How about the one with the little girls and the dollhouse:
“What’s that
Soft pitter pat?
One, two!
Two kitty cats!”
I got some buddies I can count on called the boogie woogie sheep… I dance myself to sleep (I’m in my jammies)… I dance myself to sleep (and thank you lambies)
I’m reading this book here, about a pioneer, who rode his horse all over the wild frontier… can read, can read… a book’s something you can read, a book’s really all you need, and you… can read.
I will never grow up.
Art Vandelay, the Monsterpiece Theater I remember best is “Upstairs, Downstairs” with our pal Grover.
Oh! And what about "NEAR…
…
…
…far "? I loved that one.
OOooh, I loved the Boogie Woogie Sheep!
What about?
10 Bears in the Bed
And the little one said
“I’m crowded! Roll over!”
So they all rolled over and one fell out
9 bears in the bed
And the little one said…
“Abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz” is actually on my MP3 player…
Anyone remember “I love trash! Anything dirty or dingy or dusty! Anything ragged or rotten or rusty! Yes, I love trash!”
I’ve got two eyes, one! two!
They’re both the same size, one! two!
I’ve got two ears, one! two!
They help me to hear, one! two!
I’ve got two ears, they help me hear!
I’ve got two eeeyes…and they’re both the same size!
Muppet News Flash! Kermit THE Frog here…
I can’t hear you, Bert! I have a banana in my ear!
Mr. Hooper reading his Yiddish newspaper.
“C is for cookie, dat good enough for me!
C is for cookie, dat good enough for me!
C is for cookie, dat good enough for me!
Oh! Cookie, cookie, cookie start with C!”
Mr. Bentley painting numbers all over the place.
“Fourth Street, Fifth Street, First Avenue.
No Right Turn, No Left Turn
What can you do?”
“I get maaaad! I get maaaad! I get maaaad! Everybody gets maaaaad!”
What really hurts is that I can’t remember half of what I did yesterday, but in my head this stuff sticks like it happened half an hour ago…
Me again!
I found an incredible page for this stuff, The Sesame Street Lyrics Archive. There are several pages of it, but the page I linked to is the first one alphabetically. It has The Alligator King in .avi and .mp3!
“Take the crown, it’s yours, my son.
Hope you don’t mind the dents.
I got it on sale at a discount store,
cost me all of seven cents.”
I still have the LP/book set I got when I was young with some of those songs.
How about 3,6,9…12,15,18…21,24,27…thirrrrrrty. That probably wasn’t sesame street but I still remember it.
Or the show this is from; just write _ _ _ _, box 350, Boston Mass, oh two one three four.
And then all the old things from abc like conjunction junction and “I’m only a bill and I’m sitting here on capitol hill”
To me (who turned 13 the year Sesame Street began) it always sounded just like Grace Slick singing “one two three four five six seven eight NINE te-en…”
I always liked both Teeny Little Super Guy and I’m a dog I’m a working dog I’m a hard working dog.
But my absolute favorite was the adorable short film with the song We All Sing With The Same Voice
Am I the only one that remembers the lower case n song?
“…and turtles with brains
[Turtles:] ‘Six times seven is forty-two, and Mechanicsburg is a city in Pennsylvainia.’
T is for tickle…[Turtles:] ‘eeeh-hee-hee hee!’”
That would be Zoom’s address, I believe.
Oh god…
Come on and Zoom Zoom Zooma Zoom
Come on and Zooma Zooma Zoom…
That would be Schoolhouse Rock as well. Specifically Multiplication Rock. Increasingly large football players running onto the field.
Bert’s TV is on the fritz… all it displays is a letter I with a repeating robotic voice “I…I…I…”
Ernie gets behind the set trying to fix it. Bert getting impatient. Finally the set changes to the same setup but with the letter J.
Ernie: “Oh dear, Bert. Lemme try again.”
Bert: “No. No, I like it” (sits down to watch)
This was often a seque into “We all live in a Capital I…”
