Everyone Likes Ice Cream!

Muppet 1: I'd like to be a dancer, a dancing on my toes.

Muppet 2: I'd like to be a fireman, I'd squirt you with my hose!

Muppet 3: And I would be a sailor, and I'd sail the seven seas. But....

All: There is one thing special which everyone agrees.

Oh, everyone likes ice cream, yes indeed they do.
Everyone likes ice cream, I do do you?
Search the whole world over, travel near and far.
But everyone likes ice cream no matter who they are.

2: (spoken) Except me and I don't agree.

1: I'd like to have a kitten, all cuddly, soft and clean.

2: I'd like to have a dragon, all big and tough and mean!

3: And I would have a little mouse, I'd feed him lots of cheese, but...

All: There is one thing special which everyone agrees.

Oh, everyone likes ice cream, yes indeed they do.
Everyone likes ice cream, I do do you?
Search the whole world over, travel near and far.
But everyone likes ice cream no matter who they are.

2: (spoken) Except me, and I *still* don't agree.

3: Do you like ice cream?

2: (begrudgingly) Uh, yes.

3: Then you agree.

1: (???, last word may have been "sweet")

2: I'd like to play football, our team cannot be beat

3: And I'd go to the park and watch the birdies in the trees

2: (sarcastically) Birdies.

1: Hmmmph!

All: Oh, everyone likes ice cream, yes indeed they do.
Everyone likes ice cream, I do do you?
Search the whole world over, travel near and far.
But everyone likes ice cream no matter who they are.

(a huge monster muppet approaches the trio)

3: (nervously) Say, w..would you like an ice cream cone?

(hands him a fourth cone he suddenly happened to have)

Monster: MAWRRRRRRRRRRRR....

Oh, everyone likes ice cream, yes indeed they do.
Everyone likes ice cream, I do do you?
Search the whole world over, travel near and far.
But everyone likes ice cream no matter who they are.
