(spoken)



Elmo: Oh, hello! Elmo and Telly are now going to show

you all about heavy and light.

Yeah. Elmo is going to show you about light with this

feather. Which is very light.



Telly: Yeah, and I'm going to show you about heavy with these heavy bricks.



(sung)



Elmo: Elmo and Telly

Proudly invite

You to watch a demonstration

Of heavy and light

Pay attention

So you'll get it right

'Cause Telly's is heavy



Telly: (spoken) Oh yeah!



Elmo: And Elmo's is light



Telly: (spoken) I got it.



Telly: Well I hope this little lesson

Won't take too long

It's hard to teach heavy

Unless you're strong

I'm trying to help Elmo

With all my might

But mine is heavy

And Elmo's is light



Elmo: Together we can do it



Boy this is great



Telly: Side by side both pullin' our weight



Elmo: Together makes it easy

Gee, this is fun

Mine's like a feather



Telly: And mine weighs a ton!



Both: Well we just got started

And we're almost through

See what a little

Teamwork can do

Yeah, it might seem fair

But it isn't quite



Telly: 'Cause mine is heavy ...



(Telly falls over from the weight of the bricks he's carrying.)



Elmo: And Elmo's is light

And Elmo's is light

And Elmo's is light

Elmo's is light

Bah da bah da bee do be bah!



Elmo: (spoken to Telly out of sight on the ground)

Umm, Telly? Oh sorry, Telly,

I didn't see you. What happened to you?

Oh, let me help. Let me help.

Come on, come on, come on, Telly, come on. Oh! Boy you are heavy!



(Telly stands up with the bricks,

starts to lean over and they both fall down.)
