Words by Joe Raposo. Think Sesame Street, although I don’t think he ever appears on the show. I usually identify this song with the Carpenters, but it’s actually an old standard on Sesame Street. Turns out, I don’t remember the original, mostly because I was too old for Sesame Street when it came out. Not too smart, just too old. On YouTube you can find many different versions. Here’s a video that includes a slew of folks doing the song at Sesame Street. 

Sing, sing a song,

Sing out loud, sing out strong.

Make it simple to last your whole life long.

Don’t worry that it’s not good enough or anyone else to hear
Just sing, sing a song.
