I Think That It Is Wonderful Lyrics - Sesame Street

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
