| Lyrics: | Big Bird: I think that it is wonderful
To wake up with the sun
When it has just begun
To shine
Hello, bright morning sun
The Count: I think that it is wonderful
To hear the waking street
As all those busy feet
Go by
Hello, Sesame Street
Cookie Monster: Me think that it is wonderful
To wake up wanting food
To be in hungry mood
Is swell
[Don't worry, my tummy stop growling after me have breakfast]
Hello, food food food food!
Prairie Dawn: I think that it is wonderful
To stretch from head to heels
When I get up it feels
Just right
Hello, knees, toes, and heels
Grover: I think that it is wonderful
To scrub each part of me
To make sure I will be
All clean
Hello, clean, spiffy me
Ernie: I think that it is wonderful
That I can see a star
When it's so very far
Away
Good night, faraway star
Bert: I think that it is wonderful
That I can hear birds sing
When outside everything
Is still
Good night, bird on the wing
Cookie Monster: Me think that it is wonderful
To eat my food all up
Especially at sup-
pertime
[Or lunch time or breakfast time.
It not matter]
Night, night, delicious food
Prairie Dawn: I think that it is wonderful
That I can smell a rose
I'm so glad that my nose
Knows how
Good night, sweet-smelling rose
Herry Monster: I think that it is wonderful
To hug my Teddy bear
It doesn't matter where
We are
Sleep tight, Teddy, my bear
