Artist/Band: Sesame Street
Lyrics for Song: Would You Like To Buy An O?
Lyrics for Album: The Muppet Alphabet Album [1971]



where a shady character tries to sell Ernie an O

Shhhhh!!!! Don't spread it around, everyone will want one!



(spoken)

The Salesman: Hey, bud.



Ernie: Who me?



The Salesman: SHHHHHH!



Ernie: (whispering) Who me?



The Salesman: Riiiiiiiight!

(sung)

How would you like to buy an "O"?

Round and neat

A nearly perfect circle

Tidy and complete

You can sing a pretty song

With it like so:

O! O! O!

(spoken)

Isn't that catchy?



Ernie: Ah!



(sung)

The Salesman: Would you like to buy an "O"?

Circular and sweet

"O" looks just like a donut

Really good enough to eat

It'll cost you just a nickel



(spoken)



Ernie: A nickel?



The Salesman: SHHHHHH!



Ernie: (whispering) A nickel?



The Salesman: Riiiiiiiight!

So buy the "O" and take it home tonight.

Now listen. When you buy this "O"

You get two sounds for the price of one.

You get one sound that you can use for words like "olive,"

"ostrich," and "ox."

And for no extra money, you get another sound for like

"ocean," "over," "old," and "opening."



(sung)

So would you like to buy an "O"?

I'm opening the door

It's not often that I offer

Well, could you ask for more?

It'll cost you just a nickel



(spoken)

Ernie: A nickel?



The Salesman: SHHHHHH!



Ernie: (whispering) A nickel?



The Salesman: Riiiiiiiight!

So buy the "O" and take it home tonight.

Don't ask any questions.

Just buy the "O" and take it home tonight.

You'll really love it.

So buy the "O" and take it home tonight.
