Sesame Street - Everything Goes lyrics

Spoken: Ah, there they are, sungla**es. Wow, this is gonna be great! A whole day in the park with my friends. Let's see, ummm, flashlight, for looking into dark places. Yeah, in it goes. Let's see, a dictionary, yeah, in case I want to look up some words while I'm there. Boy, you know, it was a lot easier going to the park when I was little, my Mom pushed me in a baby carriage. Sung: Things have changed Since the days when I crawled on floors Wearing diapers in my drawers And my Mom took me out-of-doors Now I know If I'm planning a trip somewhere And I'll be very far from home I prepare myself with care Binoculars to look for birdies And soap for when I get the dirties My parka goes In case it snows My book and shovel, map and whistle too I can't say yet that this'll do No, I can't doze 'Cause everything goes I'm taking my tent today And my hat today And my boots today My canteen today Something green today And I'll know today I'm prepared for any woes So 'though it's not a great adventure You'll say that I certainly went sure I was on my toes Everything goes Well, that's everything Brave as I am I'd hate to rough it So, I'll take my pack and stuff it Goodness knows Everything goes Yes, I would rather seem a worrier Than be a thoughtless hurrier The idea grows Everything goes I'm gonna be glad today And not sad today And not wish today That I'd stayed today In the house today And I'll know today I'm prepared for any woes So 'though it's not a great adventure You'll say that I certainly went sure I was on my toes Everything goes
