Inchworm (sesame Street Version) Lyrics - Sesame Street

The scene is a field with many yellow flowers. The Inchworm, with numbers going down his back, and his Caterpillar friend are crawling through the grass, Inchworm carries a pencil and paper. 

(spoken) 

Inchworm: Two and two are four. Four and four are eight. Eight and eight are sixteen. Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two. 

(sung) 

Inchworm: Two and two are four 

Four and four are eight 

Eight and eight are sixteen 

Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two 

Caterpillar: Inchworm, inchworm 

Measuring the marigolds 

You and your arithmetic 

You'll probably go far 

Inchworm, inchworm 

Measuring the marigolds 

Seems to me you'd stop and see 

How beautiful they are 

(they sing together in counterpoint) 

Inchworm: Two and two are four 

Four and four are eight 

Eight and eight are sixteen 

Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two 

Caterpillar: Inchworm, inchworm 

Measuring the marigolds 

You and your arithmetic 

You'll probably go far 

Inchworm, inchworm 

Measuring the marigolds 

Seems to me you'd stop and see 

How beautiful they are 

(they smile at each other and leave the field)
