BERT'S HALL of GREAT INVENTIONS SESAME STREET

While Ernie was strolling, one day, in the zoo,   He ran into some friends who were strolling there, too.  They walked till they came to a sign that was new: Bert's HALL of GREAT INVENTIONS  "Just step through this door," shouted  Bert, "and you'll see   The Greatest inventions of all history!  The show is fantastic, and what's more, it's free!    "Oh, hi there, Ernie."    "Hi there, Bert."  "Ladies and gents, please watch closely as I   Launch this truly remarkable PLANE toward the sky.  An amazing invention! A machine that can fly!   "I'll bet you never saw anything like this before, Ernie."  "My bird-friend flew long before your airplane did, Bert."  "Well, then, look over here at this nifty device.  It's clever! It's handy!  It's useful! It's nice!   It can grab on to things. . . like this cage full of mice.    "It's a PINCERS, Ernie!"  My lobster-friend holds on tighter than that, Bert."  Now, Ernie, here's something that's sparkling bright.   It helps y ou to see, when it gete dark at night.  The simply incredible ELECTRIC LIGHT!   "Isn't that a great invention?"  My firefly-friends light up just as well, Bert."  Hey, look here, old buddy. This has just got to stop!  Now, here's an invention that you'll never top.  It can put out a fire: it can water a crop.    "Presenting the absolutelyamazing HOSE!"    "Not bad, Bert---but my elephant-friend has a built-in hose."    "When a fly or mosquito is being a pest,    This little gadget will pass every test.   The simple inventions are often the best. . .     "A FLYWATTER, Ernie."      "Or a cow's tail, Bert?     That's a good swatter, too."    "Ernie, you're drivingme straight up the wall!    Ah, but here's the invention that's the best of them all.    It's so strong it can move everything in this hall.     "I'd like to see one of your animal friends try to match this BULLDOZER!"     "Bert----Bert! Look out! My goat-friend can do the very same thing!" BOOM!    "I do'nt know how to say this, old buddy, old friend,    But this animal nonsence has just reached its end!    "Cause I've got something heere on which I can depend.      "No animal ever wore a SUIT OF ARMOR!"                                                                          "How about my turtle-friend, Bert?"     He wares his armor where eveer he goes.     Not to mention this lovely little armadillo,here."     "There's no doubt about it. I'll just have to say    That your animal buddies have carried the day.    Every gadget I've shown you's like them in some way.      "Except for the just one little invention I've been saving for last.       It's a super-fantstic ELECRIC JUMPING BABY CARRIAGE      I invented all by myself.  Give up, Ernie?"      "I never ngive up, Bert."  [Kangaroo mother and baby]
