(I Can't Get No) Cooperation
sung by Mick Swagger (Christopher Cerf)
& The Sesame Street Cobble Stones
parody of The Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", of course!
Well, I’m sitting on a seasaw seat
Thinking seasawing would be neat
And I can’t find a friend to sit on the other side
Yes, I tried it all alone
But I crashed down like a stone
Couldn’t get no cooperation if I tried
No, no, no cooperation
No, no, no cooperation
No, no, no, no, no cooperation
If I tried, if I tried
Well, I’m dying to jump rope
But I’ve just about lost hope
And I’m so mad, I’m just fit to be tied
'Cause I can’t find a friend
To pick up the other end
Couldn’t get no cooperation if I tried
No, no, no cooperation
No, no, no cooperation
No, no, no, no, no cooperation
If I tried, if I tried
Well, I’m in an awful fit
'Cause I’m dying to be It
And I can’t find anyone to go and hide
Every time I start to play
Everyone just runs away
Couldn’t get no cooperation if I tried
No, no, no cooperation
No, no, no cooperation
No, no, no, no, no cooperation
If I tried, if I tried
