07:11Went on a spree.
07:13Then sat down and had some tea.
07:22Oh, well, now it's time to read one of the many letters from our fans here on the number show.
07:27This one says,
07:29Dear Big Bird,
07:30When am I going to see a roller coaster and some chickens on the number show?
07:34When?
07:35How about right now?
08:00One, two, three.
08:07One, two, three.
08:10One, two, three.
08:15One, two, three.
08:22One, two, three.
08:23One, two, three.
08:24One, two, three.
08:27One, two, three.
08:29One, two, three.
08:31One, two, three.
08:50One, two, three.
09:08What's going on in the henhouse today?
09:12It's something exciting to see.
09:16All of the poultry is shouting, hooray!
09:20All three waltzing chickens who dance, one, two, three.
09:24One, two, three.
09:25One, two, three.
09:26Look at those legs.
09:27One, two, three.
09:29One, two, three.
09:29Oops.
09:30Watch those eggs.
09:31Turkeys must gobble and donkeys must pray.
09:35And these take a gander to see.
09:39Something you don't come across every day.
09:42There's three waltzing chickens who dance, one, two, three.
09:46One, two, three.
09:48One, two, three.
09:48They'll never stop.
09:50One, two, three.
09:51One, two, three.
09:52Not till they drop.
09:54Aren't you glad you were able to see?
09:57There's three waltzing chickens who pull out the chicken.
10:01There's three waltzing chickens who dance, one, two, three.
10:07And now, here's Big Bird with a great number, four.
10:20I just adore four, the number for me.
10:26You can't deplore four.
10:29It's less than five, more than three.
10:31You can have four doors or four dinosaurs, four janitors, or even four grocery stores.
10:42I just adore four, the number sublime.
10:47I love to draw four.
10:49It's just an angle and a line.
10:52I can't get sore four.
10:53It's plain, you see.
10:56I just adore four, the number for me.
11:02Ah, yes.
11:04I used to fret a lot and fidget until I met that dazzling digit.
11:13And now you see a brand new me, four.
11:17I found a number I can be four, and count one, two, three, four.
11:30I just adore four, the number for me.
11:35You can't deplore four.
11:37It's less than five, more than three.
11:40You can have four floors or four army floors.
11:44Four dresser drawers.
11:46Or even four crashing floors.
11:48I just adore four, the number sublime.
11:52I love to draw four.
11:55It's just an angle and a line.
11:57I can't get sore four.
11:59It's plain, you see.
12:01Oh, I just adore four.
12:06The number for me.
12:29Hi there.
12:31See you back for more.
12:32Hang on now and we'll count to four.
12:35That's four.
12:38One, two, three, four.
12:42Come in.
12:44One, two, three, four.
12:46Four big lions just came through my door.
12:49One, two, three, four.
12:51Four big lions just sat on my floor.
12:53One, two, three, four.
12:55Four big lions just began to roar.
13:00Excuse me, I have to go to the store.
13:02You just go on counting to four.
13:04One, two, three, four.
13:08Probably be gone for a week, maybe more.
13:13No.
13:15The count went home, but he can't go home yet.
13:19He still has to count to 20 with you, the other honkers.
13:26Call him on the telephone.
13:28That's a good idea.
13:30I'll just look him up in the old phone book.
13:55Gee, it's very nice of you to give me a job helping you count.
14:00What would you like me to do?
14:01I want you to answer my telephone so I don't have to be bothered while I look for things to
14:07count.
14:08Answer the telephone, huh?
14:10Is that all?
14:10That's enough.
14:11It's not as easy as it seems.
14:14Not easy, huh?
14:15Well, listen.
14:16You can count on me, count.
14:20Now, what can I find to count?
14:23I must...
14:25One, one ring.
14:26That's the telephone.
14:27I'll answer it.
14:27No, I must count them.
14:29Two, two rings.
14:31I have to answer the phone there.
14:32No, no, I am counting the rings.
14:34Three, three rings.
14:36I'll get it.
14:37Oh, you tricky Ernie.
14:38Four, four rings.
14:40But I have to answer them.
14:42No, I...
14:42Five.
14:43No.
14:44Hello?
14:44Hello?
14:45Five glorious rings!
14:47Hello?
14:48Hello?
14:51Hello?
14:52Hello?
14:55They hung up.
14:56Of course.
14:56You took so long to answer.
14:58But you wouldn't let me answer it.
15:00I told you.
15:01It wouldn't be easy.
15:02Ah, they were calling back.
15:04I'll get it.
15:05One ring.
15:05No, I'm counting.
15:07I'll get it.
15:07Two, two rings.
15:09Three ringy dinghies.
15:13There's four.
15:16Hi, Ernie.
15:18This is Big Bird.
15:21Is the Count there?
15:23Put him on, then, would you?
15:28Hi, Count.
15:29Listen, you have to come back to Sesame Street to do your bit with the honkers on the numbers show.
15:36Well, why not?
15:47An elevator operator?
15:50Oh, hotsy-hotsy.
15:52My first day on the job as elevator operator.
15:54I cannot wait to take someone upstairs on the elevator so I can count the numbers on the different floor.
16:02Aha, here comes someone now.
16:04Oh, hi there.
16:05Could you take me up to the...
16:07Count?
16:07Is it you?
16:08Yes.
16:09Well, what are you doing here?
16:11I am the new elevator operator.
16:13Who?
16:13I got the job this morning.
16:15Wonderful.
16:16Yes, and I'm going to love it because I get to count the floors.
16:20Ah, well, listen, could you take me up to the seventh floor?
16:24Ah, at last.
16:26Walk this way.
16:28Okay.
16:30Into the elevator.
16:31Watch your step, please.
16:33Going up.
16:34Mm-hmm.
16:35Starting at one and going up.
16:38That's two.
16:39Two floors.
16:40Three.
16:41Three floors.
16:42Four.
16:43Four floors.
16:44Five.
16:45Five floors.
16:46Six.
16:47Six floors.
16:48Seven floors.
16:50Eight floors.
16:51Oh, wait a second, Count.
16:53I wanted to get off on the seventh floor.
16:54Ten.
16:55That's ten floors.
16:56I love it.
16:58Count, I wanted to get off on the seventh floor.
17:01I'm sorry, Kermit.
17:02Oh, but I could not stop till I reached the top.
17:06Well, would you please take me back down to the seventh floor, please?
17:10Well, of course, that's my job.
17:13Yes, it is your job.
17:14Starting at ten and going down.
17:17Okay.
17:18Nine.
17:19Eight.
17:21Seven.
17:22This is it.
17:22Six.
17:23No, no, no.
17:23You went prior to the seventh floor again.
17:25Listen, Count.
17:26Four.
17:26Will you stop this elevator?
17:28Two.
17:29Oh, can I run this elevator myself if you want?
17:31I love it the way you want.
17:36Oh, but wait.
17:37Kermit, you're angry with me.
17:39Yes, I'm angry.
17:40But why?
17:41Because you were supposed to stop at the seventh floor.
17:45Why?
17:46Well, because that's what elevator operators do.
17:48They're supposed to take people to whatever floor they want to go to in the building.
17:52They are?
17:53Yes.
17:53And I wanted to go to the seventh floor.
17:56Oh, but that is no problem.
17:59Yeah.
17:59I know how to get you to whatever floor you want to go in the building, and I can still
18:04count all the floors without stopping.
18:07Oh, yeah?
18:08How?
18:09I will take the elevator, and you can hop up the stairs.
18:13Okay.
18:14The stairs?
18:15Bye-bye.
18:19I have to hop in my trench coat?
18:27What?
18:27Up.
18:33Well, what do you mean it looks like a good job to you, Count?
18:35It isn't good for you.
18:39Why?
18:40Well, I'll tell you why.
18:42As soon as I think of it.
18:45Oh, I got it.
18:46I got it.
18:47It's not good, because you only got to count to ten, Count.
18:51If you come back to Sesame Street, you'll get to count to twenty with the honkers.
18:57Yeah, I promise.
19:00Right?
19:03Okay, whatever you say.
19:08The Count says he's coming back to Sesame Street.
19:12But he also said something about soccer socks.
19:18Don't ask me.
19:20That's what he said.
