" Yes every story has a beginning, middle and an end And when it's over we can go back and tell it all again Yes every story has a beginning annnnnnnd.... This is the middle of the story Here's where we get to the meat Somebody's up to something We're on the edge of our seats "Seymour looks out the window He waves to Mrs. Fazzini He catches a ride on a friendly pterodactyl He shouts 'This must be the middle!' " Yes every story has a beginning, middle and an end And when it's over we can go back and tell it all again Yes every story has a beginning, middle annnnnnnd.... This is the end of the story This is the how it all worked out Somebody winds up somewhere This is the what it's all about "Seymour flys way back in time He goes in to visit with some cavemen He runs a very successful frozen yoghurt stand He says 'It's a happy ending!' " Yes every story has a beginning, middle and an end And when it's over we can go back and tell it all again Yes every story has a beginning, middle annnnnnnd.... An end
