Sesame Street - Co-operation Makes It Happen Lyrics

Workers:
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together
Dig it!
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together

Muppet In Shades:
I saw these crazy dudes
And they went out on the street
They were cleanin' out the empty lot
And makin' it neat
I said, "Man is this cool
What you tryin' to do?"
They said, "Makin' a garden
For me and for you."
They said:

All:
Hey man, join us
Come on, let's go
Together we can make a pretty garden grow

Girl: I'll dig a hole

Guy: And I'll plant a seed

Together: And we can add the water
That all growin' things need

All:
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together
Dig it!
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together

(Scene changes to the front of a building, with 2 other Muppet guys)

Muppet In Shades:
Now we friends were on the corner
Hangin' out, I said, "Hey,
You can hang around these garbage cans
Some other day!"
They said, "Man is this cool
What you tryin' to do?"
I said, "Make a street garden
For me and for you!"

I said, "Hey cats, join us,
Come on, let's go
We'll all co-operate and make a garden grow
You dig a hole
And I'll plant a seed
And we will add the water
That all growing things need!"

Muppet In Shades, and his 2 friends:
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together
Dig it!
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together

(Back to the garden, where the plants have begun to grow)

Muppet In Shades:
Now we watch our garden grow
And we come back every day
And the people in our neighborhood
Come 'round and say

2 Friends:
"Hey man, this is cool!
Tell us what we can do
To keep this pretty garden here
For me and for you!"

Everybody Else:
We all say, "Hey, join us
Come on, dig the scene
We'll all co-operate
And keep our garden green

Girl: You trim the leaves

Guy: And you pull the weeds

Girl: And I will add the water
That all growing things need!

All:
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together
Dig it!
Co-operation ... makes it happen
Co-operation ... working together
