Nancy The Nanny Goat
Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street
Announcer: Nancy the nanny goat lived north of Nantucket.
(A bird pops out of the top of the N.)
Announcer: Nancy had a pet, a nice nightingale.
Nightingale: I am a nightingale!
(Scene changes to inside the N and we find Nancy in
front of a mirror putting on her napkin.)
Announcer: Now, Nancy was a nincompoop because around
her neck she wore a narrow napkin!
(Switch to a close-up of a clock which pulls back to
show a town hall-type building where the clock is located.
A sign on the side of the road in front of the building
says "Nanny goat farm". We see the N roll by.)
Announcer: One night in November at 9:09 she got a
notion to visit a nutty Nanny Goat farm.
(The background is covered with goats and the words
appear in balloons superimposed over them.
The N rolls by with the nightingale being pulled behind it on a leash.)
Announcer: Numbskull! Nitwit!
Nincompoop! Were some of the nasty names the other
nanny goats called her as she sat nibbling on her nails.
(She's now seated on top of the N nibbling away.
The N pulls to a stop next to the granny nanny goat
who is seated in a chair and knitting.)
Announcer: The granny nanny goat noticed Nancy and
said, "Nancy, don't be a ninny! Never nibble on your nails!"
(We now see a letter N shaking.)
Announcer: Nancy became nervous.
(Back to Nancy on top of the N taking off her napkin
and pulling a necklace out of the top of the N.)
Announcer: She took off the narrow napkin and put on a nifty necklace.
(A bird flies by with a sign reading "noodles" dragging behind him.)
Announcer: Instead of nibbling on her nails she started to notice noodles.
(Back to granny nanny goat who stops knitting and looks
over at Nancy offscreen. We then cut to a full shot
of the N as Nancy pops out of various openings and
says the letter N in speech balloons.
The nightingale pops out as well but he's speechless :-)
Announcer: Granny nanny goat noticed Nancy and said,
"Nanny goats who nibble on their nails and notice noodles are nutty!"
(Nancy skids to a stop from running into the scene
and the letter N draws itself next to her.)
Announcer: This story of Nancy the nanny goat was brought
to you by the letter N.
