Sesame Street - Adding lyrics

spoken: Okay, all you cats 'n kiddies, it's time for a little addition! Can you dig it?! Here we go! Now ... sung: Adding is putting together, hmmm Adding is just what you do If I have one cookie and you have one cookie Together they add up to two One cookie and one cookie makes two cookies One and one is two That's two, whoo! Yeah, outta sight! Adding is putting together, hmmm And I'm sure you will agree, yeah If you have two cookies and I have one cookie Together they add up to three Two cookies and one cookie make three cookies Two and one is three, oh! Dig it! Hmm-hmm Adding is putting together, hmmm Adding is making it more If you have three cookies, add one more cookie This time the answer is four Three cookies and one cookie make four cookies Three and one is four, whoo! Cookie Monster: Hey, cookies! Hey, what you doing? Hippie: Singing about addition. Cookie Monster: Why you not sing about subtraction? Hippie: Subtraction? Cookie Monster: Yeah, sure. I'll show you. Subtracting is taking away from, hohooh Subtraction is my kind of fun (now listen, see) When you have four cookies and I see four cookies I subtract them and leave you with none (haha, now see this) Four cookies minus four cookies is no cookies, ha And now my song is done And so are the cookies! (sounds of Cookie Monster eating) Both: Oh yeah!!!! Hippie: Outta sight! Cookie Monster: Yeah!
