Slaperig...
Het is bedtijd. Tandjes gepoetst. Water gedronken. Nog even naar de wc gegaan. En dan onder de wol... en dan...
>PING<
Klaar wakker.
Je kunt verschillende dingen ondernemen: warme melk, schaapjes tellen, het bed uitgaan... of je neemt de oplossing van Ernie.
Maar zorg dan wel dat je Best Buddy Bert niet afgevoerd wordt door kleine schaapjes...
Dance Myself To Sleep
Geschreven door: Christopher Cerf and Norman Stiles
Gezongen door: Ernie (Jim Henson) (oranje)
Met commentaar van: Bert (Frank Oz) (goudgeel)
Sometimes I have trouble
Falling asleep
But it's not so bad
Ernie, I'm trying to sleep
I don't worry
And I don't weep
Ooooooh
In fact I'm glad....
Be-cause I get up off my pillow
And I flip on the light
Ernie!
I get down and get hip
In the still of the night
Turn the light off, Ernie!
I stretch and I yawn and then I breathe real deep
Ooooh!
And dance myself to sleep!
Don't dare, o please don't dare
I hop around my beddie
Just a-tappin my toes
You're dancing.
Before I know what's happenin'
I'm a-ready to doze
Oooh...
Got some partners I can count on called the Boogie Woogie Sheep
What?!?
I dance myself to sleep!
I gently rock-a-bye myself across the floor
What are the sheep doing?
I turn and then I toss and then I start to snore
Ernie!
My trusty little bugle helps me spread the news
Oh, not the bugle
That I'm tappin' to "Taps"
And I'm a-rarin' to snooze!
(bugle solo)
You're playing the bugle!
What are these sheep doing? Ernie...
They're tap dancing!
Ernie, please take the sheep out, let me sleep.
Oooh.
When did the sheep get tapshoes?
Get away, get away, get away, get away, get away!
Ernie!!! Will you please tell the sheep to put my bed down?
Stop, get away, get away from me, get away, get away.
I thank you.
Wait a minute, wait wait! Don't pick me up!
(bugle solo ends)
(the sheep now begin to carry Bert and his bed out of the room)
Well, I'm gettin' kinda drowsy
So the moment has come
Your drowsy?
To grab my rubber duckie
While the sheep take my chum
Take your chum!?
Time to shuffle off to dreamland
Got a date to keep
Where are you taking me?
We'll dance ourselves to sleep, oh yeah
Wait, what is going on?
We'll dance ourselves to sleep
Wearin' our jammies
What are the sheep doing! Get away!
We'll dance ourselves to sleep
And thank you, lambies
They are taking me OUTSIDE!!!
We'll dance ourselves to sleep!
Errrrnie!
(final bugle riff)
(Ernie's trademark laugh, as Bert looks in from window with long-suffering expression)
