I Stand Up Straight And Tall
sung by Grover (Frank Oz)
Written by Joe Raposo
I, stand up straight and tall,
I, never bend at all.
I, important.
I, incredible.
I, dot the top and I will always
Be the same.
I, think of one thin line.
I, tall and straight and fine.
I, innocent.
I, intelligent.
I, I like I.
(Spoken)
And I like all the "I" words like "icicle" and "ice cream" and "idea", and also the words that begin with the other "I" sound like "igloo" and "insect" and "if" and "it", but don't forget "ice cream"!
I, think of one thin line.
I, tall and straight and fine.
I, innocent.
I, intelligent.
I, I like I.
