Down Below The Street Lyrics - Sesame Street

(begins with a scat, sounds like...) 

Hey bow-wow-hey-ba-biddy-hey 

What's down 

What's down below the street 

What's under the pavement that's under your feet 

What's down, down, down below 

Down below the street 

Looking deep down, the first thing you see 

Are the wires that bring electricity 

The lights light up, the telephones ring 

Because of the power all these wires bring 

All those wires, all those pipes 

Different sizes, different types 

Bring you water, bring you heat 

What's down below the street 

What's deeper down, here take a good look 

These pipes bring the gas that makes your oven cook 

And what about the water that flows in your sink 

Those other pipes bring you the water you drink 

That's what's down below the street 

Under the sidewalk that's under your feet 

What's deeper down, deeper down, down below the street 

In the winter you don't want chilly feet 

So you need these big pipes to bring you heat 

And for the water that goes down the drain every day 

There are great big pipes that take the water away 

All those wires, all those pipes 

Different sizes, different types 

Bring you water, bring you heat 

Let's go down, down, down, down 

If you're in a city where the subway goes 

There's even deeper to go down and now you know 

What's down, down, down below, down below the street 

What's down below the street 

What's under the pavement that's under your feet 

That's what's down, down beloooooow, 

Down below the street
