- I've been watching Sesame Street for about 25 years (I think it
- has been on about that long, hasn't it?), so allow me to fulfill
- a couple of lyric requests:
-
- Captain Vegetable
-
- It is I, Captain Vegetable, with my carrot and my celery
- Eating crunchy vegetables is good for me
- And they're good for you so eat them too
- For teeth so strong your whole life long
- Eat celery and carrots by the bunch
- Three cheers for me, Captain Vegetable, crunch crunch crunch!
-
- My name is Andy, I love candy
- I eat candy whenever I can
- If it's handy, gimme some candy
- It's so good and sweet, the perfect treat
- Its such a thrill to eat my fill and gobble 'till there's nothing on
- the plate
- Candy is great, but wait! "Who are you? Some kind of bad dream?"
- "Do I look like a bad dream?"
- It is I, Captain Vegetable, with my carrot and my celery
- etc.
-
- My name is Eddie, I love spaghetti, so I eat it whenever I can
- If its ready, gimme spaghetti
- Its a lovely thing, it looks like string, its such a thrill to eat my
- fill and gobble 'till there's nothing on my plate
- Spaghetti is great, but wait! "Who are you, some kind of weirdo?"
- "Do I look like a weirdo?" It is I, Captain Vegetable
- etc.
-
- "Gee Capt. Vegetable, this is the best thing to come along since meatballs!"
-
- The Word is "NO"
-
- No parking, no biking, no swimming, no hiking, no driving
- Too fast or slow
- And the word is No, no no no no no no And the word is no, no nono
- No camping, no cooking, no laughing, no looking,
- no stopping, no place to go
- And the word is No, no no no no no And the word is no...
- Cause it's just one word, just two letters
- Give someone (unsure of words) to get it done
- We'd be worse off without it, no doubt about it, stand up
- and shout it, No's no fun!
- No talking, no teasing, no rhymin', no reason,
- no hiding from N and O --- and the word is No, no no no no no
- And the word is No, no no no no no etc.
-
-
- Of course, these songs don't compare to Put Down the Duckie,
- Elmo's Song, Batty Bat... ;)
