Beedly-doo dee doo dee doo dee doo dee doo dee doo,

Elmo knows a little secret for whenever things go wrong,

It makes you feel much better when a bad day comes along.

Just take a breath, lift up your head, and stand up tall and strong,

Let out a big BE-DOODLE, as you sing this little song.



OH...

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum-dee-ay,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, it's such a good thing to say,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, makes sad things go away,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum-dee-ay.



Da da da da da da da,

It's so easy, you can do it almost anywhere at all,

Be-doodle in the kitchen, or be-doodle in the hall,

Be-doodle in your bathtub, or be-doodle on the phone,

Be-doodle in a marching band, or doodle all alone.



OH...

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum-dee-ay,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, it's such a good thing to say,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, makes sad things go away,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum-dee-ay.



Da da da da da da da,

Elmo woke up feeling grouchy, he was grumpy as a bear,

He tried to find some niceness, but his niceness wasn't there,

But quickly he remembered what to do when things go wrong,

He let out a big BE-DOODLE, and stayed happy all day long!



OH...

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum-dee-ay,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, an excellent thing to say,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, makes sad things go away,

Bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum, bedoodly-dum-dee-ay.

Bedoodly-deedly-didly-dodly-doodly-dum-dee-ay!
