[watery sounds]
yanky doodle went to town
a-riding on his pony…
ahhh, i love taking my bath, peace and
quiet,
all alone.
[knock-knock-knock knock-knock]
[knock-knock-knock-knock]
…and called it macaroni
oh! two, three….
hi buddy bert
oh, hi ernie, oh hey will you close
the door, ernie there’s a draft.
oh just a second bert.
ern… ernie
what are you do…?
you can’t push the piano through the
bathroom door.
why, sure i can, bert, watch…
[grunt, b-mp, grunt, tinkle, ka-b-mp]
aahhgh!
..see
ernie?
-klech-ksh-crsh-sh-sh-
wh-what are you doing with
a piano
in the bathroom!?
oh bert! i heard you singing in
the tubby there
yeh?
and so i thought i
would just come and sing along
i don’t want you to sing-along,
but…
i want you to get out.
…but everybody sounds better
singing in the bathroom bert.
you know…
i don’t want the piano in here ernie.
…well sure, bert, what’s a
sing-along without a piano?
[starts to play piano]
it’s me, that’s what it is… alone!
listen to that bert
stop that playing.
doesn’t that sound nice
stop it right now.
doesn’t that make you just want
to sing-along.
…makes me want to see you
out of here.
no, bert, listen:
[sings]
gee, bert
what?
it’s so much fun
no, it’s not
i know you’ll like it
…i won’t like it.
once you’ve begun
…i won’t begin!
ernie i have to scrub my toes
i’ve got to wash my hair.
we, bert
what?
could have a ball
no way!
if i could get you
-simmer-
to sing at all
[ends song but plays for bert]
no!…
[sings]
i refuse to sing-al
ong.
i won’t.
but, bert…
so please don’t ask me if i want to
’cause i don’t.
pretty please…?
although for you i would do
almost anything,
really?
along is one way which i
do not want to sing.
but, listen…
[sings]
ol’ bud-dy…
it will make you happy
when you start to sing a snappy
little number that will
bounce you right along.
no…
like “farmer in the dell” or
“old macdonald had a farm” or
maybe “what’s the name of that song”.
no!
so if you use alot of voice
you’ll love it that you’ve got a voice
and even if the notes you sing are wrong
ernie!
you’ll do a favor for us
if you lift your voice in chorus
for a swinging sing-along song.
e: it will make you hap – py
b: i re – fuse
e: when you start to sing a snap – py
b: to sing – a – long.
e: lit – tle num – ber that will bounce you

b: so please
e: like “far – mer in the dell” or
b: don’t ask me if
e: “old mac – don – ald had a farm” or
b: i want to ’cause
e: may – be “what’s-the-name-of-that-song”
b: i don’t
e: so
