Over, Under, Around and Through

sung by Grover (Frank Oz)
Words and Music by Joe Raposo


Transcriber's note (from SlvrSlprz@aol.com): In the TV version of this song, Grover goes over, under, around, and through a pair of swinging doors. In the record version, he says at the beginning, "You know what goes around? This record goes around!" and keeps telling you to look at the record. In both versions, after he's done a verse, he says "Now do you understand? You don't understand all that? Okay, I'll show you again." He repeats the verse again and asks if you understand again, over and over. At the end (on both versions) he exclaims triumphantly, "I did it!"

Near!

(Lyrics repeat faster and faster until Grover eventually collapses to the floor)
