[Intro: All]
Ah-ah-ah

[Verse 1]
I'd like to be a dancer, a-dancing on my toes
I'd like to be a fireman, I'd squirt you with my hose
And I would be a sailor, and I'd sail the seven seas, but

[Chorus: All]
There is one thing special, which everyone agrees
Oh, everyone likes ice cream, yes, indeed, they do
Everyone likes ice cream, I do, do you?
Search the whole world over
Travel near and far
But everyone likеs ice cream, no matter who thеy are

[Verse 2]
I'd like to have a kitten, all cuddly, soft and clean
I'd like to have a dragon, all big and tough, and mean
And I would have a little mouse, I'd feed him lots of cheese, but

[Chorus: All]
There is one thing special, which everyone agrees
Oh, everyone likes ice cream, yes, indeed, they do
Everyone likes ice cream, I do, do you?
Search the whole world over
Travel near and far
But everyone likes ice cream, no matter who they are
We love you, Mr. Hooper
[Outro: Ernie, Mr. Hooper & Cookie Monster]
Say, Mr. Hooper, do you have anything else there beside ice cream?
I-I'd better not say it
Oh, good ahead, what do you have?
Nah, I'd better not say it
Well, no, no, what is it? Go ahead, tell us
Well, I got some cookies
Cookies?
I told you not to say it
Hey, Ernie? Me play the piano, okay?
I didn't know you could the piano, Cookie Monster
