Sesame Street - I Can Do It By Myself Lyrics

Sesame Street
Miscellaneous
I Can Do It By Myself
Some things are easy
Some things are not
Some things I remember
Some things I forgot
I remember how to brush my teeth
And how to touch my toes
But now I've got this problem and I can't see how it goes
But, one day
One hap happy day
I'm gonna do it by myself
One day
One hap happy day
I won't need anybody else
'Cause I will do it by myself

(now a different boy, blonde, trying to button up a blue shirt as the tempo of the song slows down)

It's not outside out
It's not inside out
But still I got some trouble here
That I have to think about
It's a problem I've had
Since I was 2 years old
That's how to get this button
Through that old button hole
Oh how do ya get that button
Through that old button hole

(whistling)

(now a little girl proudly putting on pink pajamas with ease as the tempo picks up again)

It's easy
Oh so easy
Just as easy as falling out of a tree
Easy as 1-2-3 for me
Easy as do-re-mi you see
Easy as 1-2-3

(back to the first boy as he buttons up his pajamas)

One day
One hap happy day
I'm gonna do it by myself
One day
Well it just might be today
I won't need anybody else
I can do it by myself
I just did it by myself
