(a man between two monsters marches up) Man: Oh I'm between (blue monster bumps him) I'm between (green monster bumps him) And I'm feeling just like A sardine 'Cause I'm between You know what I mean (blue bumps him) It's not a happy scene To be between (turning backs to us) Oh there's a monster on my left side Green: (turning) Ho ha ha! Man: A monster on my right Blue: (turning) Ha ha ha! Man: They're there from early morning Both monsters: (turning) Ha ha ha! Man: To very late at night Oh I'm between (blue bumps him) Like a string bean (green bumps him) It's the saddest thing that I Have ever seen (both monsters bump him) To be between To be between First this one tries to push me this way (blue monster shoves him four times, with cheek) And that one pushes that (green monster shoves him four times, with top of head) They both keep right on squeezing (both shove him four times, then back away out of camera's view) Until I come out flat (monsters crash together in middle, squishing him) Oh I'm between (walking right) Know what I mean (walking left) And it's easier by far Being green ( Sesame Street's first inside joke? ) (come up close to screen) Than being between Than being betwee-ee-een! (they march off, both monsters bumping him as they go)
