Who remembers this song and/or clip from the late sixties-early seventies?
(The following song plays as we see live action film of kids on a playground---The camera zooms in on various kids and their body parts as each part is mentioned.)
Our heads are gardens that grow hair
Some hair is dark and some is fair
Some is yellow, some is brown
Some stands up and some hangs down
Your eyes are good friends, I suppose
That are divided by your nose
Then come your lips and underneath
Chewing and smiling are your teeth
Then comes a neck round like a ring
The throat in the front for swallowing
The neck is long but even more so
Is the part we call the torso
Arms come from your shoulders and
Each has an elbow, wrist, and hand
Out of the hand the fingers come
First, second, third, fourth, and the thumb
Next to the last are legs and these
Bend in the middle at the knees
Last of all we find the feet
With shoes to keep them off the street
Hey, these feet are running away!
I guess I've sung enough today
(At this point, you see the kids running away from the camera, down the Brooklyn Bridge.)
This song was also sung by Loretta Long on one of the Sesame LPs from the early days.
