Big Kids Cry

sung by three tough-looking muppets

We’re three big kids
Tough as rocks
Meanest dudes on the whole block
So it may come as quite a shock
That, when we’re feeling sad and blue
We big kids cry boo-hoo!
Yes, we do!
Yes, we do!
We big kids cry boo-hoo!
Boo-hoo, wah-wah, sob-sob! [sniff]
Boo-hoo, wah-wah, sob-sob! [sniff]
Boo-hoo, wah-wah, sob-sob! [sniff]

We can cry loud
We can cry low
And we want everyone to know
That, when you’re feeling down or misunderstood
A little cry can do you good!
Fill the air!
Chill your mood!
A little cry can do you good!
Boo-hoo, wah-wah, sob-sob! [sniff]
Boo-hoo, wah-wah, sob-sob! [sniff]
Boo-hoo, wah-wah, sob-sob! [sniff]
A little cry can do you good!

[The tough kids all start boo-hooing like crazy. A Muppet boy enters, carrying a huge box of popcorn.]

[spoken]

Boy with Popcorn: Aw, cheer up, guys! Look, I’ve got a great big box of pocorn! Let’s go to the park and eat it!

[The three tough kids cheer up right away and start out for the park with the new boy.]

Tough Boy: Oh, wow! Popcorn!
