The Limerick Song (Come On and Sing Along with Me)
Susan:Don't shout grouchy Oscar don't shout That's not what our singing's about So if you can't take The noise that we make Go back to your trashcan and pout
All: Ooooh, ABC, 123, pigs in a tree Don't ever sit on a woodpecker's knee ABC, 123 fiddle-dum-dee-deee Come on and sing-along with me
Bob: (Hey, I got one!)
Various voices urge him to share
Bob: A furry blue monster named Herry
Herry: (Hey, that's me!)
Bob: When asked 'Are you strong?' replied 'Very!' Then just for a laugh He tore 3 cars in half Now I ask 'Is that necessary?'
All: Oooooh, ABC, 123, pigs in a tree Don't ever sit on a woodpecker's knee ABC, 123 fiddle-dum-dee-deee Come on and sing-along with me
The Count: (Oh, I have one!)
85 bats hanging in the steeple One bat flies in through the door That makes 86 ...
(splash sound)
Ernie: (Sorry everybody, I have one!)
Bert: (Do you have a towel, Ernie?)
Ernie: (No, Bert, I have a verse.)
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Bert: (Oh no.)
Ernie: (It goes like this.) You all know our good buddy Bert
Bert: (oh no)
Ernie: Whose feelings are easily hurt When his friends all play dressup, ol' Bert has to fess up
Bert: Yeah, I'm always the one in the skirt ...( and I don't like it...)
All: Ooooooh, ABC, 123, pigs in a tree Don't ever sit on a woodpecker's knee ABC, 123 fiddle-dum-dee-deee Come on and sing-along with me
Bert: (Excuse me, I have one.) (various voices urge him on) (Yeah, you'll love it, it's really groovy. Ahem.) There once was a man named McDowell Who planted a tree with a trowel Then he got in a shower, where he stayed for an hour and said - 'SOMEBODY GIVE ME A TOWEL!!'
All: Ooooooh, ABC, 123, pigs in a tree Don't ever sit on a woodpecker's knee ABC, 123 fiddle-dum-dee-deee Come on and sing-along with me Come on and sing-along with me
At the end of the original record is heard this cute exchange:
Ernie: Okay, you can turn it over now.
Herry: Sure thing, Ernie.
(sound of piano crashing)
Ernie: Herry! Not the piano! The record! Turn over the record!
Herry (meekly): Sorry.
