Big Bird: Gosh! Sky sure looks beautiful tonight, Mr. Bennett.



Tony B: Oh, it sure does, Big Bird. All the twinkling stars and that wonderful moon.



Big Bird: Yeah. And just think - Slimey flew all the way to the moon in his spaceship. He must be a very brave worm.



Tony B: Oh, he sure is.



(sung)To go off, chasing moonbeams

A worm needs to be nervy

He needs guts, and stickability

When things go topsy-turvy

To embark on a worm lunar mission

A worm really needs the right stuff

Like a powerful rocket ignition

Or some timely assistance from Snuff



Slimey to the moon

He wants to wriggle 'mongst the stars

Let him crawl through mud and muck

On Jupiter or Mars

To other worlds

Let him fly!

To other worlds

Send him winging...



Slimey to the moon

And when this worm arrives you'll find

He'll take a leap that's small for him

But huge for all wormkind

To other worlds

He will soar!

To other worlds

And then home to us

Once more
