I'm standing here looking at the trash can
Saying "scram" to Oscar
I should have known the day would come
That he would find somebody else
And all the things Bert took me through
Bert,I shouldn't hit him with my knee
Now I'm at this telephone booth calling Ernie

And that was Sesame Street
(no matter how you beg,no)
It ain't stupid you can think about it
(stupid you can think about it)
It's like the air being sweet
(no matter what you say,no)
I'm never too old to think about it
(too old to think about it)

Now let's talk about that Ernie must hide
I collect bottle caps like Bert
When Ernie feels the same
And everyday I see Elmo
I could feel no pain
And if I had a duckie
It's Ernie's,yeah
And whenever we would go out
We play hide and seek
But now the up is down
And the silence is sound
I saw Bert too too many times
Now I can't come around

And that was Sesame Street
(no matter how you beg,no)
It ain't stupid you can think about it
(stupid you can think about it)
It's like the air being sweet
(no matter what you say,no)
I'm never too old to think about it
(too old to think about it)

La da da da da la la da da
La da da da da la la da da
Since you just want to find out the hard way
Keep watching this program while the children play

And that was Sesame Street
(no matter how you beg,no)
It ain't stupid you can think about it
(stupid you can think about it)
It's like the air being sweet
(no matter what you say,no)
I'm never too old to think about it
(too old to think about it)

Ernie's rubber duckie
And Big Bird tries to find him,yeah
But Bert will always remember
Well he's no lack of vision
And if you ever get him back
It will never be the same
He's cuttin' the corners of the street
Every time He sees your face
Now your trust is out the door
No one fights you no more
You used to tell Elmo,not Bert
And Bert would always be there for you
If you had took the time to see
What that Ernie meant to you
Is what if Zoe said to me,whoa
I not raised in Elmo's world
Who's going to Chicago
Who was the best Muppet you ever had
Yes,it was and I miss Bert
Hey Ernie,if Bert's listening
Bert said I miss you Ernie
