Somebody Come and Play
Sesame Street Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Somebody come and play
Somebody come and play today
Somebody come and smile the smiles
And sing the songs
It won't take long
Somebody come and play today

Somebody come and play
Somebody come and play my way
Somebody come and rhyme the rhymes
And laugh the laughs
It won't take time
Somebody come and play today

Somebody come with me and see the pleasure in the wind
Somebody see the time is getting late to begin

Somebody come and play
Somebody come and play today
Somebody come and be my friend




And watch the sun 'till it rains again
Somebody come and play today
