Hello. I was watching the classic clip which it was an old live-action film-the song about signs. I've been wondering...is this song from Sesame Street or The Electric Company? I remember that it goes like this:

No Right Turn, No Left Turn
But what can it do?
Gas, Car Wash, Subway, Don't Walk.
No Parking, Tow Away Zone.
Uptown, Downtown, First Avenue...
Home Sweet Home!

But I don't know if any other signs are shown on this segment...Stop? Bus Stop? Exit? One Way? or any other signs??? I'm not so sure...

This is not from SS. It is from TEC. I should know, as I have watched TEC episodes with this in it...

The song is from the Electric Company originally. A version of it did appear though on the 1977 Sesame Street record "Signs". It was sung by Big Bird and the Lost Generation.

Old episodes of Sesame Street used Electric Company footage. There was one skit with a bunch of clips of people playing basketball and then Bill Cosby (with a fro) tries bouncing a square.
