Five People In My Family
sung by the Anything Muppets
Written by Joe Raposo
Oh, I've got five people in my family
And there's not one of them I'd swap.
There is a sister, and two brothers,
And a mother, and a pop (that's me).
Oh, five is such a pretty number!
I'm awfully glad that I've five people in my family
One, two, three, four, five; one, two, three, four five
Oh I've got five!
Oh, I've got five fingers on my left hand.
I've got five fingers on my right.
Five fingers help me wave good morning,
Help me brush my teeth at night.
Oh, five is such a pretty number!
I'm awfully glad that I've five fingers on my left hand:
One two, three, four, five; one, two, three, four, five.
Oh, I've got five!!!
