The Question Song
(spoken)
Little Girl: Now the letter is "Q".
And one word that begins with "Q" is "question."

(sung)
Now here is a question,
A question for you
Remember, the answer
Will start with a "Q".

(spoken)
Grover: What's a "Q"?

Girl: Is that you? Oh hi, Grover.

Grover: Hi.

Girl: "Q" is a letter of the alphabet that looks like an "O" with a little tail at the bottom.

Grover: Oh! Now I remember. You can start the song again.

Girl: Thanks, Grover.

Grover: You're welcome.

(sung)
Girl: Now here is a question,
A question for you.
Remember, the answer
Will start with a "Q".
Just think of a duck,
Be it white, brown, or black.
What sound does it make?
Why, a duckie goes...

(spoken)
Grover: Mooooooooooo!

Girl: No, Grover. A duckie goes "Quack!"
(sung)
"Quack" is a "Q" word.
The answer is "Quack."

(spoken)
Grover: Oh. O.K.

Girl: But Grover..

Grover: Hmm?

Girl: Try this one.

Grover: O.K.

(sung)
Girl: Now here is a question,
A question for you.
Remember, the answer
Will start with a "Q".
In stores, you find milk
In containers of sorts.
But what do you call them?
You call these things...

(spoken)
Grover: Cows.

Girl: No, that's not right! The answer is "Quarts"!
(sung)
"Quarts" is a "Q" word.
The answer is "Quarts."
(spoken)
Now what made you think of cows?

Grover: I don't know. I think I heard one go "Moo" a minute ago.

Girl: Grover..

Grover: Hmm?

Girl: Forget about the cows.

Grover: O.K.

(sung)
Girl: Now here is a question,
A question for you.
And once more, the answer
Begins with a "Q".
Remember a king
In a story you've seen.
To whom was he married?
He's wed to a...

(spoken)
Grover: Farmer.

Girl: No. The answer is "Queen."
(sung)
"Queen" is a "Q" word.
The answer is "Queen."

(spoken)
Grover: Gee! I thought it was a farmer.

Girl: What farmer?

Grover: You know, the one that brought the cow in here.

Girl: Grover..

Grover: Hmm?

Girl: I've had quite enough! I quit!

Grover: Hmm. Oh well. O.K. Come on, cow. Let's go home.

Cow (pulled by Grover) Mooooooooooooooooooooo!
