****

[Watery sounds]

Yanky Doodle went to town

a-riding on his pony...

Ahhh, I love taking my bath, peace and

quiet,

all alone.

[knock-knock-knock knock-knock]

[Knock-Knock-Knock-Knock]

...and called it macaroni

Oh! two, three....

Hi buddy Bert

Oh, hi Ernie, oh hey will you close

the door, Ernie there's a draft.

oh just a second Bert.

Ern... Ernie

what are you do...?

You can't push the piano through the

bathroom door.

why, sure I can, Bert, watch...

[Grunt, bump, grunt, tinkle, KA-bump]

Aahhgh!

..see

Ernie?

*Klech-ksh-crsh-sh-sh*

Wh-WHAT are you doing with

a piano

in the bathroom!?

Oh Bert! I heard you singing in

the tubby there

Yeh?

and so I thought I

would just come and sing along

I don't WANT you to sing-along,

But...

I want you to get out.

...but everybody sounds better

singing in the bathroom Bert.

You know...

I don't want the piano in here Ernie.

...well Sure, Bert, what's a

sing-along without a piano?

[starts to play piano]

It's ME, that's what it is... Alone!

listen to that Bert

Stop that playing.

doesn't that sound nice

Stop it right now.

doesn't that make you just want

to sing-along.

...makes me want to see you

out of here.

No, Bert, listen:

[sings]

Gee, Bert

what?

It's so much fun

no, it's not

I know you'll like it

...I won't like it.

once you've begun

...I won't begin!

Ernie I have to scrub my toes

I've got to wash my hair.

We, Bert

what?

could have a ball

no way!

if I could get you

*simmer*

to sing at all

[ends song but plays for Bert]

NO!...

[sings]

I refuse to sing-al

ong.

I won't.

but, Bert...

So please don't ask me if I want to

'cause I don't.

Pretty Please...?

Although for you I would do

almost anything,

Really?

along is one way which I

do not want to sing.

But, listen...

[Sings]

ol' bud-dy...

It will make you Happy

when you start to sing a Snappy

little number that will

bounce you right along.

no...

Like "Farmer in the Dell" or

"Old MacDonald had a Farm" or

maybe "What's the Name of that Song".

No!

So if you use alot of voice

you'll love it that you've got a voice

and even if the notes you sing are wrong

Ernie!

you'll do a favor for us

if you lift your voice in chorus

for a swinging sing-along song.

E: It will make you Hap - py

B: I re - fuse

E: when you start to sing a snap - py

B: to sing - a - long.

E: lit - tle num - ber that will bounce you

B: I won't!

E: right a - long

B: so please

E: like "Far - mer in the Dell" or

B: don't ask me if

E: "Old Mac - Don - ald had a Farm" or

B: I want to 'cause

E: may - be "What's-the-Name-of-that-Song"

B: I don't

E: So

B: al

- though for you

E: if you use a - lot of voice you'll

E: love it that you've got a voice and

B: most an - y - thing

E: ev - en if the notes you sing are

No! I refuse to sing-along

That's that!

Gee, Bert, that was wonderful.
