Sung by Ernie and Hoots the OwlMusic by Christopher CerfLyrics by Norman StilesCopyright 1987 Splotched Animal Music/Sesame Street, Inc.Lyrics:Excuse me, Mr. Hoots,I hate to bug a busy bird,But I want to learn to sax,And I need a helpful word--I always get a silly squeakWhen I play the bluesErnie, keep your coolI'll teach ya how to blow the saxI think I dig your problem--It's rubber and it quacksYou'll never find the skill you seekTill you pay your duesChorus:You gotta put down the duckie,Put down the duckie,Put down the duckie,Yeah, you gotta leave the duck aloneYou gotta put down the duckie,Put down the duckie,Put down the duckie,If you wanna play the saxophone!You didn't hear a word I said,You gotta get it through your headDon't be a stubborn cluck,Ernie, lay aside the duck!I've learned a thing or twoFrom years of playing with a band:It's hard to play a saxophoneWith something in your handTo be a fine musician,You're gonna have to face the facts:Though you're blessed with flying fingersWhen you wanna wail, you're stuck--What good are flying fingersIf they're wrapped around a duck?Change the toy's position,If you wanna ace the sax!(Repeat chorus twice)Sesame Street is owned by Sesame Workshop, not me.
