Gordon: ah come on now, big bird, hey, big bird, cut it out, will ya? there's no such thing as a snuffleupagus ...

Mr. hooper: that's telling him.

Gordon: he's just an imaginary friend of yours ...

Big bird: no, mr.snuffleupagus is real, and i'm gonna keep barking 'til he comes .. (big bird continues barking)

Gordon: all right, big bird, if you're gonna stand there and bark, then we are just going to find this .. imaginary snuffleupagus .. c'mon everybody .. let's go ..

Big bird: gosh, everybody's gone .. i'm all alone ... well i'd better keep barking anyway ..

(snuffy music starts as big bird barks.)

Big bird: hey everybody! look who's coming .. it's mr.snuffleupagus! you heard me barking ..

Snuffy: oh hello, bird..

Big bird: you heard me barking..

Snuffy: yes, oh dear .. look at all those kids .. hi, kids..

Kids: hi!

Big bird: oh, mr.snuffleupagus, you'll finally going to get to meet my other friends, i'll go get them.. gordon! susan!

Snuffy: well, bird has gone. i wonder if any of his friends will ever get to see me.

Snuffy sings:

Nobody seems to see me
Though i stand here night and noon
I guess i'll just go back to my house
And make believe i'm the moon

Nobody seems to hear me
When i try to talk and sing
I guess i'll just go back to my house
And make believe i'm spring

Everybody opens up their heart
To the moon and the spring
And i know why
Everybody opens up their heart
To familiar things
But strange things make them shy
And afraid sometimes

Nobody seems to want me
Though i wish on stars above
I guess i'll just go back to my house
And make believe i'm love
And make believe i'm love

Everybody opens up their heart
To the moon and the spring
And i know why
Everybody opens up their heart
To familiar things
But strange things make them shy
And afraid sometimes

Nobody seems to want me
Though i wish on stars above
I guess i'll just go back to my house
And make believe i'm love
And make believe i'm love

(kids cheer)

Snuffy: well, i guess bird couldn't find his friends.. i have to go home to my cave now. i'll see you later, bye bye..

Big bird: bob! maria! c'mon c'mon.. mr.snuffleupagus is right here!

(snuffy music fades)

Bob: what is it, big bird..

Big bird: oh.. he's gone..

Maria: of course, he's gone, big bird, he's only in your imagination..

(snuffy music fades in, kids scream)

Bob: no, you've pulled that trick on us so many times, big bird, we're not going to fall for it anymore, big bird..

Big bird: oh bob! wait! look look! look behind you! he's here! turn around!

Maria: oh come on, big bird, not again..

Big bird: maria.. c'mon.. look look..

(snuffy music fades)

Bob: no, we're just not gonna fall for it again, big bird..

Big bird: ahh.. well don't bother turning around now.. cause he's gone.

Bob: i'm sure..

Gordon: what's going on?

David: yeah, what's going on, big bird..
