I Refuse To Sing Along Lyrics - Sesame Street

Ernie: Gee, Bert, it's so much fun, I know you'll like it once we've begun 

Bert: Ernie, I've gotta wash my hair, I've gotta scrub my toes 

Ernie: We Bert, will have a ball, if I can get you to sing at all 

Bert: No, I refuse to sing along I won't 

So please don't ask me if I want to 'cause I don't 

Although for you I would do almost anything 

Along is one way which I do not want to sing 

Ernie: Ole Buddy, it'll make you happy 

When you start to sing a snappy 

Little number that will bounce you right along 

Bert: No! 

Ernie: Like "Farmer In The Dell" or "Old McDonald Had A Farm" or maybe "What's The Name Of That Song" 

Bert: No 

Ernie: So if you have a lot of choice, 

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

And even though the notes you sing are wrong 

Bert: ERNIE!! 

Ernie: You'll do a favor for us 

If you lift your voice in chorus 

For a swinging sing along song 

(Duet: singing these parts at the same time) 

Bert: I refuse to sing along I won't 

So please don't ask me if I want to 'cause I don't 

Although for you I would do almost anything 

Along is one way which I do not want to sing 

Ernie: Ole Buddy, it'll make you happy 

When you start to sing a snappy 

Little number that will bounce you right along 

Like "Farmer In The Dell" or "Old McDonald Had A Farm" or maybe "What's The Name Of That Song" 

So if you have a lot of choice, 

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

And even though the notes you sing are wrong 

You'll do a favor for us 

If you lift your voice in chorus 

For a swinging sing along song 

Bert: Ernie!!! 

Ernie: Please Bert, you'll like it too 

We'll sing together, just me and you 

Bert: AARGH!! 

No, I refuse to sing along that's it!!!! 

And in the bathtub it's ridiculous, I quit!! That's that! 

That's that! 

Ernie: Gee Bert, that was terrific!
