00:09Piki's Post Office is now open for business. Can I help you?
00:13Yeah. How do you send smog to a friend?
00:17What?
00:17You put it in a box and send it dirty air mail.
00:21That's a post office joke. Waka waka waka.
00:24Well, I've got a better joke, Fozzie. How do you send lousy comedians to a friend?
00:29I give up? How?
00:33Elle had the express mail.
00:36Next.
00:38One sheet of stamps, please.
00:40Um, just a moment.
00:42Hey, where are those stamps, Wolf?
00:45Coming right up.
00:50There. That's everything.
01:08Here you are, Piggy.
01:09One sheet of stamps. Aren't they pretty?
01:13But they all have pictures of you on them.
01:16Naturally. It's my post office.
01:18Huh?
01:20What's that? It's the Pony Express.
01:22Whoa, horsey!
01:24Whoa!
01:26Nope. It's the Weirdo Express.
01:28So, Weirdo, where's the mail?
01:31Mail?
01:32I know I forgot something.
01:38I sure hope weirdness isn't contagious.
01:46This is my latest invention, Beaker.
01:51I call it our mail.
01:57What?
01:59Oh!
02:01Good!
02:01The fish was hot today.
02:03Nobody breathes.
02:06Honey, no!
02:09Animal, what do you think you're doing?
02:12Special delivery!
02:19Hi, kids.
02:20Hi, Nanny.
02:21Hi, Nanny.
02:22This letter just came for Ralph.
02:24Huh? A real letter? For me?
02:27I wonder who it's from.
02:29Go ahead. Open it.
02:31Wow. This is incredible.
02:33What's it say?
02:35How should I know? I can't read.
02:37Would you read it for me, Nanny?
02:39Why, certainly, Ralph.
02:41Dear toy piano owner,
02:44that's you, Ralph.
02:45The Tiny Way Piano Company
02:47is having its annual
02:48Young Person Songwriting Contest
02:51and would like to invite you to enter.
02:54The winning song
02:55will be played on the radio.
02:58Gee, you're a great songwriter, Ralph.
03:01You win for sure.
03:03I guess I could give it a try.
03:05You let me know when you're done, Ralph,
03:06and I'll mail in your entry.
03:08Let's get our instruments so we can help, Ralph.
03:10Let's do that, Ralph.
03:12Let's go.
03:13All right.
03:19Hmm.
03:20I wonder what kind of song I should write.
03:23I know.
03:23Make it a funny song
03:25about a hot dog gargling root beer
03:27who gets mustard on his guitar and...
03:29Fozzie!
03:31You're right.
03:32It would be better if he gargled the mustard
03:34and spilled the root beer on his guitar and...
03:36Hold your hand right there, Fozzie,
03:38and whatever you do, don't let go.
03:40Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
03:41Uh-uh-uh!
03:42Hey, I know.
03:44I'll write a classical song.
03:46Classical?
03:47Well, I, uh, I...
03:49Go ahead, Ralph.
03:50We're ready to record.
03:52Okay.
03:53I'm Ralph the Dog,
03:55and this is my song.
04:21Oh, no.
04:23I can't write a song with my piano out of tune.
04:26I know.
04:27Take your piano to an auto mechanic.
04:29They do great tune-ups.
04:31You really think they can tune my piano, Fozzie?
04:34Sure.
04:35Well, okay.
04:45I need a tune-up fast.
04:47You'll get right on it.
04:49Be sure?
04:50Let's get this thing on the lift.
05:06Oh, no!
05:08Seems to be a problem.
05:18You're right, Beaker.
05:20You need a tune-up as well.
05:26Just one minor adjustment.
05:30Wow!
05:33She's turned up perfectly now.
05:40Sounds good.
05:59Oh, gee, that was great, Ralph.
06:06Yeah, you'll win for sure.
06:08Um, I'll call Nanny and have her mail it in.
06:12Hold it.
06:13What are y'all looking so gloomy about?
06:15I thought you liked my song.
06:17Your song was great, Ralph.
06:19It's just that, well, we'd like to write songs like you, too.
06:24Yeah.
06:24You have more musical talent in your little toe
06:27than we have all put together.
06:30Speak for yourself, Piggy.
06:31Personally, my body has lots of musical talent.
06:35Whoa!
06:36See what I mean?
06:37What's the matter with you guys?
06:40We've played music together lots of times.
06:42You're all good enough to write songs.
06:45No way!
06:46I'll prove it to you.
06:47Really?
06:48Maybe we could.
06:49I'll try if you try.
06:54Gee, maybe we could write a song together, Piggy.
06:57Ooh, I'd love to write a song with you, Kermie.
07:01And I could sing it like Piggy Parton.
07:10Oh, Kermie, we've got to come up with a hit song for my big concert.
07:15Well, let's see.
07:19Oh, no, all of my fans are waiting, and I don't have a song to sing.
07:23How about this one, Piggy?
07:28Frog, froggy in the swamp
07:31Where mosquitoes and fireflies rump
07:37Where if you're a toad
07:40You stay out of the road
07:43Cause the cars that go by
07:45They don't halt
07:52I don't quite know how to tell you this, Kermit
07:55But on a scale of 1 to 10
07:57That song was minus 12
08:00It's horrible!
08:04Gee, I didn't think my song was that bad
08:09Did you?
08:11I can't let Piggy go on stage without a good song to sing
08:15There's only one thing to do
08:17Oh, yikes!
08:19Whoa!
08:21Oh!
08:23Us struggling songwriters can't afford taxis
08:26I sure hope she's home
08:31Well, if it isn't Kermit Christopherson
08:34What can I do for you?
08:36Uh, I, um, I was wondering if you could do me a teensy-weensy favor, ma'am
08:42And, uh, well, you see, I need help writing a song for my friend Piggy
08:46Why, sure
08:47I always was a sucker for little green guys
08:50Come on in, Kermit
08:52Thanks
08:59You're on in 15 seconds, Piggy
09:02Oh, dear
09:03And I still don't have a song to sing
09:05My career will be ruined
09:07I've got it!
09:08I've got a song, Piggy!
09:10No way, Kermit!
09:12I'm not going out there and making a fool out of myself with one of your cornball songs
09:16Nothing you could do would make me sing this song the last time I saw
09:22Oh, hey there, everybody!
09:25Gimme that
09:26I have a great little song here I'd like to sing for you
09:30This better be good, Frog
09:33Hit it, fellas!
09:36It's hard to be a pig out of the prairie
09:40Yee-haw!
09:41It's tough to be a frog out on the plain
09:44What?
09:46Well, someday this cute frog and I will marry you
09:51Then this cow pig's life will be so strange
09:56We'll feel the little pig home on the range
10:01Yee-haw!
10:06Wow, that was terrific!
10:08Thank you, thank you!
10:10My turn!
10:11I'm gonna do a funny song!
10:13This is Fonzie Bear
10:14And my song is called
10:16How to Tell Chicken Jokes Without Laying an Egg
10:19Hee-haw!
10:20Hit it, guys!
10:22Waka, waka, waka!
10:24Fonzie Bear's gonna talk-a!
10:26Why did the chicken cross the road to try to find a ride?
10:30No!
10:30The chicken crossed the road, of course, to get to the other side!
10:33Hee-haw!
10:36You might ask why a fireman would wear his red suspenders
10:40The answer is quite plain to see!
10:42He keep his pants up!
10:44Huh?
10:44Oh no!
10:46I bet you always wondered why elephants have trunks!
10:50When the weather's hot, they run to the beach and like to go for a dunk!
10:54Hee-haw!
10:56Whoa!
10:56Yeah!
10:57Hey!
10:58Don't you guys throw anything besides tomatoes?
11:01Whoa!
11:02Sorry, I asked!
11:06And that's the end of my funny song!
11:09Thank you very much!
11:11Pretty good, huh?
11:12Uh, sure, Fuzzy!
11:13That was, uh...
11:15Yeah, it was, uh...
11:17Really, uh...
11:18Wasn't it, guys?
11:21I'm glad you liked it!
11:23Um, who's next?
11:25Why don't you give it a try, Scooter?
11:27Gosh!
11:28Uh, I've never written a song before!
11:30You've written a computer program, haven't you?
11:32Yeah, but what's that got to do with music?
11:35Lots of music is written on computer, Scooter!
11:38Yeah, you're right!
11:44We're recording!
11:45My name is Scooter, and this song is called, uh...
11:50Computer Scooter!
11:53Huh?
11:54Gee!
11:55Something doesn't sound right!
11:57Uh, maybe there's something wrong with my computer!
12:00We'd better take a look!
12:12What are we looking for, Scooter?
12:14We're looking for the Ram!
12:17There he is!
12:18Ah!
12:22Ah!
12:24Ah!
12:25Ah!
12:26Ah!
12:26Ah!
12:26Not that kind of Ram, Fuzzy!
12:28R-A-M!
12:29Random Access Memory!
12:32Oh!
12:32It's where my music program is stored!
12:35I know that!
12:36Ah!
12:39Ah!
12:39Ah!
12:39Ah!
12:41Ah!
12:44I don't see any music in here, Scooter!
12:47Ah!
12:51Ah!
12:51Ah, ah!
12:52Hey, ah,
12:52ah, what's goin' on man?
12:56E00!
12:57E00!
12:57Electronic Monsters!
12:59Hey, don't get yourself all frazzled.
13:02We're just electronic musicians.
13:04I've been looking all over for you guys.
13:06Sorry, man, we've been taking five.
13:11Bites, that is.
13:13You know, like in, uh, computer bites?
13:16All right.
13:18Uh, I'm writing some electronic music, and I need your help.
13:23You got it, computer scooter.
13:26One, two, three, four.
13:31One, two, three, four.
13:35One, two, three, four.
13:41One, two, three, four.
13:42One, two, three, four.
13:43Thanks, guys.
13:44That was great, scooter.
13:45Yeah, I guess I can write songs.
13:48Here, me.
13:50Now it's my turn.
13:51And I know exactly what kind of song I'm gonna write.
13:56A marching song.
13:59Come on, guys.
14:00Get your instruments and follow me.
14:03No, no, no, no.
14:17Yeah.
14:25gate
14:27Great. I just love March songs.
14:30Personally, I prefer April songs.
14:33Get it? March, April, waka waka waka.
14:38Funny, funny.
14:41Thanks, Animal.
14:43I'm gonna write a rock song, but first I need a rock band.
14:50I'll be in your band, Gunzo.
14:52Don't be silly. You can't be in my rock band, Kermit.
14:55Why not?
14:56Because you're not a rock.
15:00Huh?
15:01Okay, fellas, we got a song to do.
15:06Let's try that one more time from the top.
15:09A one, a two, a one, two, three, four.
15:14What's wrong with you guys?
15:16You're supposed to be rock musicians.
15:18You haven't played a note all day.
15:21Leroy, what happened to that great beat you're famous for, huh?
15:24And, gross baby, what's your problem?
15:28Why aren't you guys playing?
15:30Is it something I said?
15:31Don't I pay you enough?
15:33What was that?
15:36Of course, how could I have been so stupid?
15:40I remembered the rocks, but I forgot the rules.
15:55You know what to do, girls.
16:01This is Gunzo's rock and roll band.
16:04One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two, three, four.
16:12Yeah.
16:13Weirdos are you rock?
16:14Rock, rock, rock, rock.
16:16Weirdos are you rock and roll.
16:17Come, come, come, come, come.
16:19But if you get too weird,
16:21Wait, wait.
16:22Your face looks like a troll.
16:24Not like a troll.
16:25You're the weirdo troll.
16:27You're the weirdo troll.
16:28You're the weirdo troll.
16:30You're the weirdo troll.
16:32It's rock and roll.
16:34You're the weirdo troll.
16:35Yeah.
16:35Get down! Oh, get up! Oh, no! Get down!
16:46Nice song, guys! Take three! I mean, take five!
16:51I think it's our turn, Beaker.
16:55Sure, you can play music, Beaker. All you need is my latest invention.
17:01The Bunsen-Huridoo Solar-Powered One-Man-Band!
17:10Don't worry, Beaker. It's easy.
17:13Ready? Ready, Bunsen!
17:16A one, a two, a...
17:22A one, a three, a...
17:24A one, a three, a...
17:49Oh, that's too bad, Bunsen.
17:52I guess you and Beaker won't be able to enter the contest now.
17:56Of course we will. I still have this.
17:59A ping-pong ball?
18:00No. It's my Bunsen Honeydew self-propelled follow-the-bouncing ball ball.
18:07How does it work?
18:09Simple. Watch.
18:14Go on, Beaker.
18:16Hey.
18:36I don't want to let that one.
18:40Good ball.
18:42That was amazing, Bunsen.
18:45And you too, Beaker.
18:47Thanks.
18:49Well, we've all written our songs. It's time to send in the tape and...
18:53Me song. Me song.
18:56Don't be silly, animal. You can't even talk right. How are you going to write a song?
19:01Not right. Drum.
19:05What?
19:13Why?
19:14Run it on!
19:15Run!
19:16Look out!
19:45Page five.
19:51Gee, that was wild, Animal.
19:58I'll shut the tape recorder off.
20:01Uh-oh.
20:03Run it on now!
20:06Uh-uh, don't worry. I'll have it straightened out in two minutes.
20:09Oh, boy. How about two years?
20:14Now we'll never know if we won the song contest.
20:17Wait a minute. There's still a chance to enter our songs.
20:20All we have to do is put the tape back together and wind it back on the cassette.
20:25I'll get the mending tape.
20:29Now we just have to untangle this mess.
20:31Hey, watch it!
20:33Kermit?
20:38Then we wind it back into the cassette.
20:41There! Good as you!
20:43How did your song come out, Rolf?
20:45Great, Nanny!
20:46We all wrote songs!
20:48You did?
20:49Uh-huh. Here they are, Nanny.
20:51Thank you, Kermit. I'll mail this off right away.
20:55Oh, boy! I can't wait to see if we win!
21:02You're right, Beaker. A week is an awfully long time to wait.
21:06And, and, and, and, and, and taste good!
21:12Hurry, Nanny! The winning song is going to be played any second!
21:17I think this is the station.
21:19And now it's time to play the winning song in the Tiny Way Piano Songwriters' Contest!
21:26That's your song, Rolf!
21:28I won!
21:29Wow!
21:34Waka waka waka!
21:37Waka waka waka!
21:38Why did you get your game crossed the road?
21:41You're right, no!
21:48You're the weirdo!
21:49Help!
21:50You're the weirdo!
21:52You're the weirdo!
21:53You're the weirdo!
21:54You're the weirdo!
21:55You're the weirdo!
22:01You're the weirdo!
22:01Was that all our songs?
22:03That wild and crazy song was written by not one, but ten creative little songwriters!
22:09The Muppet Babies!
22:11Way to go, kids!
22:12And thanks from the Tiny Way Piano Company!
22:15We did it!
22:16We did it!
22:18That was a wonderful song, kids!
22:20I'm very proud of you!
22:23We were going!
22:23I want to write another song!
22:25Me too!
22:27Good song!!!
