Counting for Fun

Counting for Fun is a Sesame Street song in which the Count sings to Natasha about the joys of counting and also about how she will speak one day.

Lyrics
Birds in the trees, flowers and bees.

So many fine things to count.

Butterflies winging, kitty cats singing.

You'll know the precise amount.

Counting is wonderful, counting is fun.

Now I will show you just how it is done.

One, two, three, four butterflies.

One, two kitty cats.

One, two, three birdies.

And one, two, three bats.

I can almost make out what you're trying to say.

And I know you'll get better with each passing day.

How many squirrels, sweet little girl?

How many inches tall?

How many toes-es, elbows and noses?

Someday you will count them all.

Counting is wonderful, counting is fun.

Again, I will show you just how it is done.

One, two, three four butterflies.

One, two kitty cats.

One, two, three birdies.

One, two, three bats.

I can almost make out what you're trying to say.

And I know you'll get better with each passing day.
