TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "Sesame Street - ABC-DEF-GHI"

SKIPNOTE: I used to sing this song to my sons when they were little. 




ABC-DEF-GHI

Boy! Look at that beautiful, absolutely marvelous word!

Abc-def-ghi-jkl-mnop-qrstuv-wxyz
It's the most remarkable word I've ever seen
Abc-def-ghi-jkl-mnop-qrstuv-wxyz
I wish I knew exactly what I mean
It starts out like an "A" word as anyone can see
But somewhere in the middle it gets awful queer to me

Abc-def-ghi-jkl-mnop-qrstuv-wxyz
If I ever find out just what this word can mean
I'll be the smartest bird the world has ever seen!

What can that strange-looking word possibly mean?
Funny word!

It might be kind of an elephant
Or a funny kind of kazoo
Or strange, exotic turtle
You never see in a zoo
Or maybe a kind of a doggie
Or particular shade of blue
Or maybe a pretty flower....
Naah, not with a name like that, Uh uh!

Abc-def-ghi-jkl-mnop-qrstuv-wxyz
It's the most remarkable word I've ever seen
Abc-def-ghi-jkl-mnop-qrstuv-wxyz
I wish I knew exactly what I mean

It starts out like an "A" word as anyone can see
But somewhere in the middle it gets awful queer to me

Abc-def-ghi-jkl-mnop-qrstuv-wxyz
If I ever find out just what this word can mean
I'll be the smartest bird the world has ever seen!
