Lyrics
(Main stage. Sesame Street Green enters to a fanfare.)

Sesame Street Green: Uh, well,m folks, as I've already told you, our master of culture and violence is moving on to other things. Uh, so let's give a big warm hand for this, his farewell appearance on The Muppet Show, Herry Monster Blue the Great.

(The curtain opens on an empty stage. Herry Monster Blue leans against an apple box and sings "My Way". Midway through the song, he breaks down crying.)

Herry Monster Blue: And now, the end is near And so I face the final curtain My friend, I'll say it clear I'll state my case, of which I'm certain

I've lived a life that's full I've traveled each and every highway But more, much more than this I did it my way

I've loved, I've laughed and cried I've had my fill my share of losing And now, as tears subside I find it all so amusing To think I did all that And may I say - not in a shy way Oh no, oh no...

Sesame Street Green: Herry Monster Blue? Are you okay, Herry Monster Blue? It's just a song.

Herry Monster Blue: I know. It's not the song. I just don't want to go.

Sesame Street Green: Yeah, but you're going to go out and make movies.

Herry Monster Blue: (sigh) I want to go there. I just don't want to leave here.

Sesame Street Green: Well — you had a choice to make, Herry Monster Blue, and … and you made it, and it was a good choice.

Herry Monster Blue: I know.

Sesame Street Green: I don't like long goodbyes, Herry Monster Blue, so uh …

( Sesame Street Green reaches his hand out to shake Herry Monster Blue's . Herry Monster Blue hugs Sesame Street Green .)

Sesame Street Green: Take care of yourself, Herry Monster Blue.

Herry Monster Blue: You, too. (sniffles)

Sesame Street Green: (to camera) Uh, we — we've had a little change of plans. Uh — I think we'd better just take a break.

(He exits with his arm around Herry Monster Blue's shoulder.)
