Splish, splash, Elmo took a little bath Long about a Saturday night A'rub-a-dub, just relaxing in his tub Thinking everything was all right Well, Elmo stepped out the tub Put his feet on the floor Then he wrapped a towel around him And he opened the door Splish, splash, Elmo got back in the bath How was he to know there was a party going on They was a'splishing and a'splashing Reeling with the feeling Moving and a'grooving Rocking and a'rolling Yeah! Ba-bing, bang, Elmo saw the whole gang Dancing on his living-room rug That's right Flip-flop, they were doing the bop Elmo's friends had the dancing bug There was Prairie Dawn with Betty Lou My word, Big Bird was even there too Splish, splash, forget about the bath Elmo went and put his dancing shoes on
