Four Furry Friends
sung by Cookie Monster, Grover (both Frank Oz)
Herry Monster (Jerry Nelson), and Oscar the Grouch (Carroll Spinney)
Written by Joe Raposo
Herry (SPOKEN): Hey, Oscar, Cookie, Grover! It's time to sing the song about the letter that comes after "E"!
Oscar: I don't wanna do this icky, crummy, lovey-dovey old F song!
Cookie: C'mon lets all sing together.
Herry: All those words that start with the letter F!
All: (sing)
Four furry friends. Frolicking fellows.
On Friday afternoon. (afternoon)
4 furry friends, frankly affectionate,
They sing the future soon. (future soon)
Faithful, fearless, friends for forever.
Fabulous, fun, family.
4 furry friends, faithful together.
Fun-filled, and forever free. (ever free)
Herry (SPOKEN): F is the letter that brings us together.
F is fun. F is famous.
And together our friendship will forge forward.
Thanks to that fantastic letter F.
All (SING): Four furry friends, faithful together.
Fun-filled, and forever free. (Ever free!)
Oscar: Boy, I really hated that!
