Sesame Street 2 - The R Machine текст песни

Bert (fixing the machine): Ha! Well, this machine knows what letter comes next. I put this here...

Ernie: Hi there, Bert. What's that machine you're working on?

Bert: Oh hi, Ernie. This is my latest invention, my automatic R detector.

Ernie: No kidding.

Bert: Yeah. Anytime this machine hears an R or an R word, it rings a bell. I'll start it up for you now....

(sound of machine starting)

Ernie: Wow! Look at that machine go.

Bert: Now if you'll just say something that begins with R... (bell rings)

Ernie: What was that?

Bert: Oh, I just said R. (bell rings) And when you say R (bell rings), the bell rings. (bell rings)

Ernie: Hey! You said rings (bell rings) which begins with R. (bell rings)

Bert: Right. (bell rings)

Ernie: Why, that's remarkable! (bell rings) Hey! (Ernie laughs) Keeheehee! That's fun. Let me tell it an R riddle. (bell rings twice)

Bert: O.K. Just don't go too fast. I don't know what'll happen if the machine gets going too fast.

Ernie: O.K. Listen to this, machine: Roscoe really raised rabbits while Ruth rode the red reindeer. If Roscoe's rabbits raised a racket, why did Ruth's reindeer run the rabbits ragged?

(bell rings 17 times)

Bert: Hey, hey! Don't talk so fast. The machine is beginning to smoke.

Ernie: Well, I only have one last poem here.

Bert: Yeah, yeah, but listen..

Ernie: Robert rolled reddish radishes around the ring of rubber rubbish... (The bell rings seven times and the machine makes a Moooooooo! sound)

(The machine explodes and makes a whistling sound)

Bert: Hey, hey, wait! Hold it!....Wait!....Now look what you did!

Ernie: Oh my! The machine looks ruined.

(The bell rings and the machine makes another whistling sound)

Bert: Rats!

(The machine pops out a spring)
