Sesame Street - Telly's Aquarium lyrics

Female Goldfish (wearing a wig!): Golden fish with long, flowing tails Plant: Leafy plants growing in red gravel Snails: Two cute snails crawling through the water (Four other fish swim in, one of them is red and looks a bit like Telly. They line up with the two female Goldfish in the upper corners, the males in the lower corners and the Telly lookalike in the middle. The treasure chest in the corner bubbles as they sing ...) Fish: And a buuuuulging treasure chest All: We all live inside of Telly's aquarium Telly's aquarium Telly's aquarium Aquarium Aquarium Snails: No cats or dogs or kangaroos Fish: Chickens, zebras or co*katoos Plant: Nothing up there lives in here Fish: This watery lair we find so dear Snails: A home that Telly cleans so nice Plant: A cozy lid (?) with Paradiiiiiise (I've rewound and nearly worn my video out, not a clue what he's singing. We need more articulate plants here, people!) All: Aquarium Aquarium Aquarium (The fish swim off-screen as the song's tempo changes. This is the part sung to the tune of "Let The Sunshine In". They swim back and now appear to be wearing hippie beads in their "hair"! It's their fins actually but, still, groovy, man.) All: Let the water flow Let the water flow in The water flow in (Now a BIG red fish that looks exactly like Telly swims in from behind the treasure chest!) Tellyfish: Yes, you've got to All: Let the water flow Let the water flow in The water flow in Let the water flow Tellyfish (same time as the others): The aquarium is where we live Sing with me! Yes, you've got to All (including Tellyfish): Let the water flow in (The song ends, the camera pulls out to show the aquarium, which appears to be a lot smaller than it was during the song. The Tellyfish takes up almost the entire front of the tank. Telly Monster walks in.) Telly Monster: Funny, I think one of my fish is starting to look like me. (he taps the tank to attract Tellyfish's attention) Hey, little guy, come here. (Telly and the Tellyfish bob their heads up and down in unison.)
