Sesame Street - Sparky's Alligator Song - Текст песни

Mom: (in doorway, to Gerald, who is in bed) Goodnight, dear. 

Dad: (in doorway, too, to Gerald) Goodnight, Gerald. (and to the dog, on the floor beside the bed) Goodnight, Sparky. 

Mom: (to Sparky) Goodnight, Sparky. 

Gerald: Goodnight, Mom. Goodnight, Dad. Goodnight, Sparky. 

(Door closes and lights go out. Sparky jumps up and runs to the foot of the bed where he makes a huge shadow of an alligator on the wall) 

Sparky: (singing) Imagine me an alligator! (chorus in background sings Alligator!) 

Gerald: MOM! There's an alligator in my room! 

Mom: (coming in; Sparky dashes back beside the bed) I don't see an alligator. 

Gerald: Sure, it's not there now, but when you turn out the light, it's there! 

Mom: Go to sleep, Gerald. It's just your imagination. 

(Door closes and lights go out. Up jumps Sparky.) 

Sparky: (singing) Sweet potato! (chorus: Alligator!) I was lookin' -- 

Gerald: MOM!!!!! 

Mom & Dad: (opening door; Sparky of course returns to spot) What is it?! 

Gerald: The alligator! It's back! 

Mom: (leaving) Go to sleep, Gerald. 

(Sparky resumes his song) 

Sparky: (singing) And you came by for me to munch ya! 
I'm afraid of gettin' thinner 
Won't you please become my dinner -- 

Gerald: (peeking over the end of the bed) Sparky!!! It was you all the time! 

(Sparky blushes and goes to sleep) 

Mom: (from hallway) What is that singing? 

Gerald: Oh, nothing, Mom. Just your imagination. (grins)
