Singing in the Shower

Singing in the Shower, also known as Singing While Bathing, is a Sesame Street song about the joys of singing while washing and imagining.

Lyrics
Woman: I love to sing. Sing in the shower. Aha. As the water falls I let my voice ring loud and clear. I love to sing. Ahaha. Haha. Sing in the shower. Aha. 'Cause I like the way that my singing sounds in here. Aha. Hahahaha. Ahahahahaha. And as I sing, I imagine I'm upon a stand. Imagine I'm singing with a great big band. My records are playing on the radio. And I'm going to be the star of a great big show!

Ernie: That's why I sing. Sing in the bathtub. Lala la. As I soak myself, I let my voice up loud and clear. I love to sing. La la. Sing in the bathtub. La da dee da. Cause I like the way that my voice sounds in here. And as I sing I imagine what I want to be. A great big sailor on a stormy sea. Or a fleeing cowboy on an open plane. I can even imagine that I'm singing in the rain.

Oscar: That's why I sing. Sing in my mud bath. Ha ha ha. As I squish around I let my lovely voice in here. I love to sing. Lalalala. Sing in my mud bath. Ha ha ha. As I love the way my singing sounds in here. Ah-ah! Oh-oh! Ah-ah! Oh-oh. And as I sing I imagine that this is a swamp. Even better than the city dump. And crocodiles are essence and you hear a screech. And out comes Oscar. The King of Muddy Feet.

Big Bird: That's why I sing. Lalalala. Sing in my birdbath. La la la. As the water falls I just belt it loud and clear. I love to sing. Sing in my birdbath. La la la. And I take a bath every time it rains out here. And as I sing I imagine I'm a surfing ace. Riding my surfboard in a surfing race. The waves are getting bigger. I'm about to fall. So I turn into a plane and fly away from it all.

(Everybody's verse plays, minus the daydreams)

Everybody: Cause I love the way my singing sounds in here!
