Favorite song?

LY was on the Electric Company?

Oh, my, let's see.

I'm afraid I have to start with the final verse.

Youre in a very dark room, and sitting (seems like the word was standing, but Dracula was sitting) in the gloom, is DRACULA, so how do you say goodbye? Immediately! Immediately!! Imediate-ly, BYE BYE!

He was in a pie eating contest and only had one slice to eat to win, How do you eat it?

Eagerly, eagerly, eager- l y.

Something made him cry and I can't recall what. How do you start to cry?

Quietly, quietly, quiet - l y.

He had to open a door and either a porcupine or a lion was sleeping in front of the door, how do you open the door?

Carefully, carefully, careful - l y.

He had to cry quietly because another animal was in there and he didn't want to wake it up.

He fell in the water! His boat capsized. he had to wait for his clothes to dry? How do you wait for your clothes to dry?

d-d-d-d-patiently, d-d-d-d-patiently, d-d-d-d-patient - l y.

Each word was sung with the feeling of what the little cartoon man was going thru. He cried quietly, he was shivering as he sang patiently, and so on.

The theme song also included these words:
"We're gonna tell you the truest word
that you ever heard anybody say!"

That's straight from a decades-old memory.

This was a great show---not only educational, but entertaining for all ages.

There is one song that I really like by the Short Circus, but I don't know the name of it. The words go like this:
When you're feeling really scared and you're shaking like a leaf and you want a little comfort and you're looking for relief.
There's no need for tears, to get rid of your fears singing la, la la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Then Melanie Henderson has a solo part): We all have to go to doctors though I'd really rather not. Because the first thing Monday morning I have to get a shot. Since I have to stay, I'll look the other way. (All sing) Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Then Denise Nickerson has a solo part): There is nothing quite as frightening as a roller coaster ride when you've got no one to talk to and you've got no place to hide. While flying through the skies I simply shut my eyes (All sing)singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
When you're feeling really scared and your heart begins to beat. You really want to take off, but you just can't move your feet. There's no need to run there's a way to have fun singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Singing la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

It's IMPOSSIBLE to pick one favorite song!
