Lyrics
Cookie Monster's Blue Book: You know, we received quite a few letters lately because a lot of you out there just don't seem to know what's alive and what's not. Well, for one thing, you're alive and we've got a little song about it, so come on and hit it, boys.

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book and Prairie Dawn's Purple Book : Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out. Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out.

Cookie Monster's Blue Book: Oh, you're alive. Yes, you're alive. You're ali-i-i-i-ive and that's no jive (that's no jive).

You breathe and eat and grow. And that is how you know. Ah, ah, ah...

You're alive. Yes, you're alive (alive). You're ali-i-i-i-ive. You're alive.

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book and Prairie Dawn's Purple Book : Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out. Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out.

Cookie Monster's Blue Book: Well a rock's not alive (no, no, no, no) And a clock's not alive (no, no, no, no) A telephone's not alive (no, no, no, no) An ice cream cone's not alive (no, no, no, no)

They don't breathe or eat or grow (ooh) And that is how you know-oh-oh (no, no, no) They're not alive. They're not alive (alive). They're not ali-i-i-i-ive (not alive).

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book and Prairie Dawn's Purple Book : Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out. Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out.

Cookie Monster's Blue Book: But then again, A frog is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) A dog is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) A pony is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) And a bunny is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

They breathe and eat and grow. And that is how you know...

They're alive, yes, they're alive (alive). They're ali-i-i-i-ive. They're alive.

Oscar's Bridge to Reading Book and Prairie Dawn's Purple Book : Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out. Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out.

Cookie Monster's Blue Book: One more time.... You're alive and we're alive. We're ali-i-i-i-ive and that's no jive (that's no jive).

Oh, you better believe it, baby. Can't you hear us breathing, baby. We're ali-i-i-i-ive We're alive....
