Bones Inside of You

Bones Inside of You is a Sesame Street song by the Count about how people have bones in them.

Lyrics
Feel your fingers, feel your toes.

Grab your elbows, pinch your nose.

Touch your ankles, tap your knees.

Give your chin a little squeeze.

You'll feel something hard inside.

And it cannot be denied.

What you'll feel is hard as stone.

And it's something called the bone.

Oh, there are bones, bones, bones, bones, bones inside of you.

Bones, bones, bones, bones. More than just a few.

So many you can't count them. Amazing, but it's true.

There are bones, bones, bones, bones, bones inside of you.

There are bones inside your hand.

In your feet to help you stand.

In your elbow and your heel.

Lots of lovely bones to feel.

All your bones are hard to see.

Still, you have them, just like me.

They are not outside, but in.

They are underneath your skin.

Yes, there are bones, bones, bones, bones, bones inside of you.

Bones, bones, bones, bones. More than just a few.

So many you can't count them. Amazing, but it's true.

There are bones, bones, bones, bones, bones inside of you.

(break while the Count defines "skeleton")

If you had no bones at all,

then you couldn't run or fall.

And you couldn't stand up straight,

Or eat dinner off your plate.

Without bones, we'd all fall down.

Just like puddles on the ground.

Just like melted ice cream cones.

If we didn't have our bones.

Yes, there are bones, bones, bones, bones, bones inside of you.

Bones, bones, bones, bones. More than just a few.

So many you can't count them. Amazing, but it's true.

There are bones, bones, bones, bones, bones inside of you.
