Baby, Say it Loud!
or "Telly and Elmo's Silly Duck and Cow Song"
sung by Telly in a Duck costume, and Elmo in a Cow costume
(spoken)
Elmo: Oh, hello everybody! Well, guess what? We're gonna sing a silly song about a silly cow -
Telly: And a silly duck! Ready, cow?
Elmo: Ready, duck!
(they laugh, music starts, they start singing)
Telly: I remember the first word I said
Mom was putting me to bed
And as she kissed me on my brow
I said something I picked up from a cow
I said "MOO!"
Elmo: "Moo?"
Telly: Yes indeed, I said "moo!"
Elmo: Moo, moo!
Telly: Other ducks started gawking
Mom said, "At least you're talking."
Then she said, "Baby, say it loud,
Say it loud, 'cause I feel proud."
I said, "Moo, moo, moo!"
Telly & Elmo: Moo, moo, moo!
Elmo: Elmo remembers the first word he said
Mother Goose was being read
And then as Dad got to the end
Elmo said something he learned from a friend
Elmo said "Quack!"
Telly: "Quack?"
Elmo: Yes indeed, he said "Quack!"
Telly: Quack, quack!
Elmo: Dad felt very lucky
Though his cow spoke like a ducky
Then he said, "Baby, say it loud",
Say it loud, 'cause he feels proud.
Elmo said, "Quack, quack, quack!"
Telly & Elmo: Quack, quack, quack!
I remember the day that we met
We got close as friends could get
And there inside the barnyard shack
Telly: I taught you how to moo
Elmo: Elmo taught you how to quack!
Moo, moo!
Telly: Quack, quack!
Elmo: MOOOOOOOOO!
Telly: Quack quack quack quack quack
Telly & Elmo: Then we danced a little jig
And taught the little pig
And we said, "Baby, say it loud,
Say it loud, 'cause he feels proud."
We said, "Oink, oink, oink!"
Oink, oink, oink!
Telly: We said, "Say it loud!"
Elmo: We said it loud
Telly & Elmo: Say it loud...
'Cause we feel proud!
Elmo: Hey, Duck!
Telly: Yeah, Cow?
Elmo: Let's talk Turkey!
Telly & Elmo: Gobble gobble gobble gobble gobble...
