Lyrics
Kermit the Frog: I'm a bluebird that's been dreaming Of a rainbow I can follow To that old familiar place I long to see

Friendly faces, a smile to greet me Or just a simple "Hello, how are you?" Oh, without them, I'm so blue There's only one thing that will do To make this heartache end To be back home again (sighs)

P.J.: He sure looks sad.

Kai-Lee: He sure does.

Kermit the Frog: I'll never lose my dreams Even though this time it seems Like I'm such a long way From any rainbows that might keep my dreams from fading Oh, no wonder I'm so blue

( Foozie Bear, working spotlight, cries loudly)

Kermit the Frog: There's only one thing that will do To make this heartache end To be back home again To be back home again

Constantine: (counting money backstage while he sings) I'm a rich man, getting richer Here's my money; let me count it I'm so happy... (starts whistling)

( P.J. and Kai-Lee from audience sneak in behind him and go to sleeping Kermit the Frog's cage.)

Kai-Lee: Are you real?

(A tear trickles from Kermit the Frog's left eye)

P.J.: He must be real; he's crying. (to Kermit the Frog) What's the matter?

Kermit the Frog: (wakes up and sees kids): Oh, oh, uh, I'm in big trouble, see? Uh, could you do me a favor? (P.J. and Kai-Lee nod) Uh, I, I can't get out of here, and I want to! So, could you call Mister Looper's Store on Sesame Street and tell somebody where I am?

Constantine: (spoken, noticing P.J. and Kai-Lee) Hey, kids, get away from the talent! Go on, get! Scram! (barks like a dog as kids run off. Laughs.) (singing) I'm a rich man, getting richer!

( Kai-Lee is on pay phone with P.J. lifting her. Phone rings once, and Maxine answers.)

Maxine (spoken) Operator. May I help you?

Kai-Lee: (spoken) Hello, operator, can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?
