Oscar sings it's not easy being green

[anythingmuppet]

Hey Mike, look I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, ok?

I think it would be nice if someday there was an episode with one of Kermits versions of the song followed by Oscars version. it would especially look appropiate with oscars line "As somebody once said...."

I caught Oscar's version of "Easy Bein' Green", and enjoyed it very much. It was a great little parody of the original and very well done. Below are the lyrics for those who missed it.



To the tune of "Easy Bein' Green" by Kermit the Frog
Sung by Oscar the Grouch (and the grouch choir)

It's not that easy bein' green,
having to spend each day the color of the leaves
when I think it could be nicer being grey, or brown, or puce,
or something much less colorful like that.

It's not easy bein' green.
It seems you blend in with so many other beautiful things,
and grouches tend to pass you over cause you're not all dingy looking
like mud in the water, or smog in the sky.

But green is the color of slime,
and green can be gross and mildly like,
and green can be smelly like a stink-weed,
or angry like an alligator,
or sour like a pickle.

When green is all there is to be
it could make you wonder why
but why wonder, why wonder
I am green and it will do fine
it's yucky, and I think it's what I want to be.

And then he says to all the chorus and alligator and everyone "Okay, get lost!...you too, pickle. I gotta be me! hehe." lol

Darn it!

I missed this episode since my daughter usually takes a nap when Sesame is broadcast in our city. Maybe it will show up on DVD on of these days?
