lyrics

Emo Elmo.
He bumped his elbow.
Poor Emo Elmo.
I'll be your friend.

I said "Hey, I remember you from Sesame Street.
You were red and cute and moving to the beat!
Shaking your booty all night long 'till Mr. Rogers came on."
But then one day I saw you down
I said, "Hey Elmo, why the frown?"
He said, "I just really wanna be loved."
And I said, "Oh silly Elmo being emo. I wuv you!"

Emo Elmo.
He bumped his elbow.
Poor Emo Elmo.
I'll be your friend.

The next day he called me up to ask a favor.
He said "Please can you tell my neighbor Big Bird to stop being mean to me?
It's making me suicidally."
I said, "Sure. I'll tell the dick to get up his fat ass or stop talking shit."
And Emo Elmo said, "I wuv you with all my widdle heart!"
And I was like "Awe!"

Emo Elmo.
He bumped his elbow.
Poor Emo Elmo.
I'll be your friend.

I just wanna be loved!

Emo Elmo.
He bumped his elbow.
Poor Emo Elmo.
I'll be your friend.
