Lyrics
(Main stage. Oscar Green enters to a fanfare.)

Oscar 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, Grover Blue the Great.

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

Grover 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...

Oscar Green: Grover Blue? Are you okay, Grover Blue? It's just a song.

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

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

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

Oscar Green: Well — you had a choice to make, Grover Blue, and … and you made it, and it was a good choice.

Grover Blue: I know.

Oscar Green: I don't like long goodbyes, Grover Blue, so uh …

( Oscar Green reaches his hand out to shake Grover Blue's . Grover Blue hugs Oscar Green .)

Oscar Green: Take care of yourself, Grover Blue.

Grover Blue: You, too. (sniffles)

Oscar 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 Grover Blue's shoulder.)
