Lyrics
Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Oh, look who is coming down the street. It is my good friend, Zoe Zingy Orange.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Hi there, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. How are you doing?

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, I'm just fine, my good friend Zoe Zingy Orange. And what are you doing with yourself on this bright and sunny day?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, actually, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. I was just thinking that I would sit outside in the sunshine and read a book.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, Zoe Zingy Orange. That sounds like a splendid thing to do.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Yep. It certainly does. There's only one trouble.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, trouble? What is the trouble?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, you see, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. I forgot to bring a book with me.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, you do not have a book to read.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Mmm mmm.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, what a shame. Wait, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue just had an idea. I will tell you what. I will just run up to my room and bring you back a book to read, huh?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Gee, that would be really nice, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. But that would be a lot of trouble, wouldn't it?

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, no. It would be no trouble at all. All I have to do is run up those cute little stairs right there. Those nine little stairs lead up to my little room, so I would climb up the nine little stairs and bring the book to my good friend, Zoe Zingy Orange, and it would be no trouble at all.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Gee, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. That's very nice of you.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: (spoken) Oh, it is my pleasure. See you in one minute. Well, here I go up the nine cute little stairs. (singing) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. I climbed the stairs one at a time. I am in my room now. I picked up the book now and down I will climb 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. (spoken) (sighs) And here is a nice book for my good friend, Zoe Zingy Orange.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Gee, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue, thanks a lot. That's really very nice of you.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Well, you are welcome. Well, I will see you later.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Oh, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. There's one little problem.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: A problem? Oh, what is the problem?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, you see, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. The problem is that when I read a book, I sort of like to put the book on a table while I'm reading.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: A table?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Mmm hmmm. And somehow, book reading and table has really go together for me.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: A table. Well, a table is no problem. I, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue, will just climb up the nine cute little steps leading to my room and get you a table. Well, here I go up the nine little stairs. (singing) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. I climbed the stairs one at a time. I am in my room again. I picked up the table and down I will climb (boy, that is heavy) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. (spoken) (sighs) Here you are, Zoe Zingy Orange. Here is the table.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Gee, thanks, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. It's kinda big, but I guess it will do.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Aahh. I am so glad because I am a little tired now.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Uh huh. Well, there is just one more thing, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: One more thing?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, I'm afraid so. You see, I said I wanted to sit and read a book. And as you can see, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue, there's nothing really to sit on. So I could use is a nice, big, comfortable, fluffy armchair.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: A nice, big, comfortable, fluffy armchair?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, it wouldn't be too much trouble.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: (spoken) (sighs) All right, Zoe Zingy Orange. I will go get you the chair. (singing) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. I climbed the stairs one at a time. Here is my room. I picked up the big chair and oh my, down I will climb 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Gee, look at that. A nice big comfortable fluffy armchair. That's really nice of you, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: (sighs)

Zoe Zingy Orange: But you know, I think I've changed my mind.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Changed your mind?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, you know, I think instead of reading a book, I'd like to practice playing your nifty set of drums, if you don't mind.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: My nifty set of drums?

Zoe Zingy Orange: If you don't mind.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: (spoken) (sighs) Wait there. I will be right back. (singing) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. I climbed the stairs one at a time. Hello, room. I picked up my big drums and oh my, down I will climb 1, 2, 3...whoa! Aaah! ...7, 8, 9. (spoken) Oh, there are the drums, Zoe Zingy Orange.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Yeah, I can see them lying all over the sidewalk. Are you okay, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue?

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Oh, I think so.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Well, I'm glad because now I got everything I need. You're really a good friend, you know that? Thanks for everything.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: You mean you do not want anything else?

Zoe Zingy Orange: Nope. What else could I want? I got everything.

Cookie Monster: Oh, Zoe Zingy Orange. I am so glad.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Uh, oh. Did you hear that, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue?

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: Mmmm hmmm.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Thunder. Oh, no, Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue. Look! It's beginning to rain! Gee, that's really too bad! We're gonna have to carry all the stuff back in.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: (groans) Well, I will take the table and chair.

Zoe Zingy Orange: Okay, and Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue, can you take the drums? I'm carrying the book.

Cookie Monster Yum Yum Blue: (groans)
