When Bert's Not Here
4
Ernie tosses and turns, trying to get to sleep, then says:
5
Oh, it's no use, I can't fall asleep. And you know why? It's 'cause I miss my old buddy Bert. He's not here. See, he went to this Pigeon Festival, you know with Bernice, the pigeon? You know, it might make me feel better if I could tell you about it, I hope you don't mind listening?

(singing)
7
When Bert's not here
8
The hours last forever
9
The toys aren't fun
10
And the cookies don't crunch
11
When Bert's not here
12
I don't feel so clever
13
And I never even feel like having lunch
14
When Bert's not here
15
The place is too quiet
16
The windows creak
17
Funny thoughts fill my head
18
When Bert's not here
19
No way to deny it
20
I feel I really should have stayed in bed
21
There's some peculiar things about him
22
What he likes and does can be a mystery
23
But to spend a rainy day without him
24
Makes me realize how much he means to me
25
When Bert's not here
26
The sky's not so sunny
27
My life seems blue
28
And from my point of view
29
When Bert's not here
30
The jokes aren't so funny
31
And I wonder what on earth I'm gonna do
32
When Bert's not here
33
To play with me and you
34
(spoken)
35
You know, I do feel better now. I guess sometimes it does help to tell somebody how you feel. So thanks for listening. I bet I can fall right asleep now. Oh, good night!
