sesame street - the subway lyrics
[intro: old lady (beatnik)]
excuse me!
(watch it, lady!)
pardon me, sonny!
[beatnik (chorus)]
down below the street
can you dig the steady beat?
it’s the subway!
(subway!)
[bert (chorus)]
moving right along
hear the rhythm loud and strong
it’s the subway!
(subway!)
[middle-age man]
’cause there isn’t any room in this town
[betty lou]
they put all the trains down under the ground!
[policeman (chorus)]
buy a token now
for a ride that’s super-wow
on the subway!
(subway!)
[everyone talks at once]
[bert]
excuse me!
[young-ish woman]
you should say you’re sorry!
[bert]
hi, kermit
[middle-age man]
squeezed inside the door
[boy]
there’s no room for any more!
[both (chorus)]
on the subway!
(subway!)
[beatnik]
hang onto the strap
[young-ish woman]
wonder where they hid the map?
[both (chorus)]
on the subway!
(subway!)
[betty lou]
if you’re in a hurry, take the express
[kermit the frog]
it will go right by your local address
[redhead (chorus)]
swaying to and fro
it’s the only way to go
on the subway!
(subway!)
[kermit the frog (chorus)]
(ohhhhhh)
my stop just went by!
[betty lou (chorus)]
(ohhhhhh)
say, your thumb is in my eye!
[beatnik (chorus)]
(ohhhhhh)
it’s so hot i could die!
[chorus]
any way, every way, everywhere!
[bert (chorus)]
packed inside a train
it’s too crowded to complain
on the subway!
(subway!)
[old lady (chorus)]
you could lose your purse
or you might lose something worse
on the subway!
(subway!)
[beatnik]
it’s the biggest travel bargain in town
[young-ish woman]
the longest-running show underground!
[middle-age man]
come on, step inside
you’ll get taken for a ride
on the subway!
[kermit the frog]
where’s that?
[chorus]
on the subway!
[bridge: for some reason, some of them start dancing in pairs]
[betty lou]
if you’re in a hurry, take the express
[kermit the frog]
it will go right by your local address
[chorus]
buy a token now
for a ride that’s super-wow
on the subway!
on the subway! (on the subway!)
on the subway! (on the subway!)
whooooaaa!
[the subway stops and everyone exits, except for bert and the policeman]
