One Fine Face
Written by Jeff Moss
this version sung by Ernie (Steve Whitmire, I believe) and Elmo (Kevin Clash)
Ernie: I've got two eyes
Elmo: Oh, got two eyes
Ernie: So I can see
Elmo: Yes, eyes can see
Ernie: I've got two ears to listen to what you say to me
Elmo: What you say to me
Ernie: I've got a mouth
Elmo: Yes, got a mouth
Ernie: So I can speak
Elmo: A mouth can speak
Ernie: I've got a cheek right here
And here I've got another cheek
Elmo: Another cheek
Ernie: I've got a nose
Elmo: One little nose
Ernie: So I can smell
Elmo: A nose can smell
Ernie: I've got a chin
But what a chin does I just can't tell
Elmo: Just can not tell
Ernie: I've got eyes, ears, nose, mouth, cheek, and chin
Each in its place
And they're all part of one fine face
Ernie: You've got two eyes
Elmo: Two pretty eyes
Ernie: So you can see
Elmo: Just look and see
Ernie: You've got two ears to listen to what you say to me
Elmo: What you say to me
Ernie: You've got a mouth
Elmo: Oh yes, a mouth
Ernie: So you can speak
Elmo: A mouth can speak
Ernie: You've got a cheek right here
And here you've got another cheek
Elmo: Another cheek
Ernie: You've got a nose
Elmo: A little nose
Ernie: So you can smell
Elmo: A nose can *sniff*
Ernie: You've got a chin
But what a chin does you just can't tell
Elmo: Just can not tell
Ernie: You've got eyes, ears, nose, mouth, cheek, and chin
Elmo: Each in its place
Both: And they're all part of one fine face
Yes, they're all part of one fine face
