Animals In, On, and Under

Animals In, On, and Under is a Sesame Street song by Ernie about a dream he had where there were various animals in different places in his and Bert's room.

Lyrics
Well, I dreamed I was awakened by a rather funny sound.

So I lifted up my head and I looked all around.

Do you know what it was that I saw?

There were monkeys on my bed right next to me.

They were on, they were on, they were on my bed, dancing and prancing all around my head.

I decided that I shouldn't stay.

So I left the monkeys on the bed so they could play.

(break)

Now as I left, I heard a funny sound.

I don't think I'd ever heard that sound before.

It was coming from my door.

What could it be?

I tiptoed over to the drawer to see.

It was in, it was in, it was in my drawer.

So I took a deep breath, and I counted to four, one, two, three, four.

And something went up when I opened my drawer!

It was a long grey trunk of a huge elephant.

There's an elephant living there in my drawer!

I guess I can't get to my socks anymore 'cause they're in there too.

That's the truth, that's firm.

My socks are in the draw with a big old pachyderm.

He was in, they were on.

He was in, they were on, and I tell you it's true.

My room is turning into an in-and-on zoo.

So I sat myself down to rest my aching head.

And as the chimps danced on, something moved under the bed.

From under, under, under came a horrible sound.

From under the bed and on top of the ground.

I didn't want to see it, at least not for a while.

It was too late, for out popped a crocodile.

One was under, two were on, the other was in.

I know it was my room, but I really couldn't win.

And I thought to myself, "They're doing no harm. I'll just change the room to an in-on-under farm."

I know it was a dream, Bert, but still I wonder, were there really animals living in, on, and under?

Were there really animals living in, on, and under?
