Sesame Street - Friendship lyrics
(spoken) Erykah: Hello. Muppets: Hi. Erykah: My name is Erykah Badu. (NOTE: I don't know the song he's referring to here, sorry if I mess it up!) Elmo: Oh, the "a-jiggy, jiggy, yee-yo-yee-yo, what ya gonna do", Erykah Badu? Erykah: That's me. Hey, come on over, let's be friends. Muppets: Well ... hmmm .... Rosita: Did she say, "friends"? Zoe: Yeah, yeah, I think that's what she said, "friends". Baby Bear: But .. ummmm ... we've never been friends with anyone who ... ahhh ... well, who wears what you're wearing on your head! Erykah: Well, I've never been friends with three furry monsters or a brown baby bear, either. (voices of concern about this, they have to brainstorm) Baby Bear: Okay, huddle up, here we go! (the muppets huddle together) What do ya think? (various voices: "She said, "friends" and .... she's pretty.") (they come out of the huddle) Baby Bear: Alright, so, are you trying to say that you don't want to be friends with three furry monsters and a brown baby bear?! Erykah: Awww ... no, that's not what I'm trying to say. (music starts) (sung) Doesn't matter what you wear Or what's in your hair If you're three furry monsters Or a brown baby bear We're all friends (spoken in foreground) Rosita (to Zoe): Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Zoe (to Rosita): Yeah, let's go! (they run off) Not being blinded by a color Accepting one another Like different letters in the alphabet need each other We all need friends (Rosita and Zoe return wearing headwraps like Erykah's) Rosita and Zoe: Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Ooooo - eeeee - doooo - eeeee Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Loooo - laaaa - looooo Erykah: Now, reaching for a little star It's pretty far Come closer to the earth where your buddies are To look for a friend Muppets: Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Ooooo - eeeee - doooo - eeeee Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Loooo - laaaa - looooo Erykah: Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Ooooo - eeeee - doooo - eeeee Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Loooo - laaaa - looooo A friend indeed is a friend we need Be-da-de-da-day Hey-oh-hey-a-ohh Let's be friends Hay-ahh-do-be-day Talking with my friends Won't you be my friend Muppets (in background): Friendship Talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Won't you be my friend Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Won't you be my friend Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Won't you be my friend Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship Friendship We're talking 'bout friendship (spoken) Erykah: So, we're friends?
