Imagine That — текст песни (Sesame Street)

Sometimes I imagine
That I would like to be
A knight in shining armor
In a castle by the sea

A knight in shining armor with a princess by my side
I`d have a magic feather and a horse that I could ride
And the king would say, Sir Ernie, you`re so handsome and so brave
Please rid us of this dragon breathing fire in his cave

And I`d get on my horse and I`d start to ride
I`d travel my way through the countryside
I`d come at last to the dragon`s cave
And I`d yell, Mr. Dragon, you`d better behave!
And the dragon would be so scared of me
That he`d run away, and the kingdom would be free!

And I`d tip my hat
Imagine that
Imagine thaaaaaaaat
Imagine that!

Sometimes I imagine
That I would like to be
A daring bold explorer
Sailing far across the sea

I`d set out on a sailing ship to find a distant land
I`d gaze across the ocean with my telescope in hand
And the captain would say, Ernie, there`s a big storm drawing near,
You`re our finest bravest sailor; you must grab the wheel and steer!

And I`d grab the wheel in the wind and rain
I`d steer the ship through the hurricane
I`d guide the ship with a steady hand
I`d lead the way toward a brand new land
I`d spy the land lying safe and near
And I`d cry Land-ho!, and the crew would cheer!

And I`d tip my hat
Imagine that
Imagine thaaaaaaat
Imagine that!

Sometimes I imagine
That I would like to be
A person who`s named Ernie
Who looks quite a lot like me

Who likes the things that I like
And who does the things I do
And I don`t have to imagine
Because I`m Ernie!
Me, that`s who!

(nifty Ernie laugh)

And I`d tip my hat
Imagine that
Imagine thaaaaaaat
Imagine that!
