Above It All
Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street
Above it all, there in the sky
The world below, above was I
I was above it all!
Below, some folks slept in a house
Below those folks, there crept a mouse
Below the mouse, the beetle sat
Below is not where I was at
Above it all, I love to fly
Above it all, there in the sky
The world below, above was I
I was above it all!
Below, some dudes went for a sail
Below those dudes, there swam a whale
Below the whale, a submarine
Below is not where I was seen
Above it all, I love to fly
Above it all, there in the sky
The world below, above was I
I was above it all!
And then one day, I heard a sound
Came from above, turned me around
To my surprise, I saw a dove!
I was below, he was above!
Above the dove, clouds were in flight
Above the clouds, sun shining bright
I asked the dove, "is something wrong?"
"Oh, no," he said, "just change your song."
Above it all, I love to fly
Below it too, there in the sky
Above it now, below am I
Above, below it all!
(Above, below it all!)
Above, below it all!
(Above, below it all!)
Above, below it all!
(Above, below it all!)
At last I know it all!
(At last I know it all!)
Above, below it all!
