Snuffy is Not an Elephant



Snuffy is Not an Elephant is a Sesame Street song by Snuffy and Big Bird about how Snuffy, despite looking sort of similar to an elephant, is not one.

Lyrics
Snuffy: I'm not an elephant.

Don't mean to make a fuss, but I don't have floppy ears, because I'm a snuffleupagus.

I'm not an elephant, though we're both big and kind of cute.

An elephant's got wrinkled skin and I'm wearing this shaggy suit.

Big Bird: You're not an elephant.

Though in ways, you look the same, you're snuffle's long like an elephant's trunk.

Snuffy: But a snuffle is a snuffle with a different name.

I'm not an elephant.

Take a good, close look at us.

An elephant is so elephanty and I'm so snufflyupagus.

Big Bird and Snuffy: Snuffily, snuffily, oh, so snuffily.

Big Bird: Can't get enough of my good friend Snuff.

Snuffy: I'm a snuffleupagus.

Big Bird: He's a snuffleupagus.

Both: A snuffleupagus.

Snuffy: Yeah, snuffleupagus.
