The song lyrics 'Jazzy Spies' by
Sesame Street are about numbers and play with them in a fun way. It's about recognizing and counting the numbers from one to ten. The song lyrics use jazzy music and various visual elements to bring the numbers to life.
The text begins by showing a marathon runner with the number seven on his shirt. Then, the numbers one to ten appear at a fast pace on a jazzy background. A female voice counts the numbers one to ten while two hands appear with fingers one after another.
Race cars numbered one to ten also appear. A voice sings the numbers one to ten. Then, a big seven is drawn on the screen and the voice sings 'Seven!'. The seven splits like curtains and reveals a magician wearing a seven on his hat and cloak. As he bows, it becomes clear that he also has a seven on his bald head. Then he opens his cloak and reveals another room with an identical magician inside. A voice says slowly 'Seven'.
The magician then takes off his hat and seven rabbits jump out and stack themselves on the floor. A turtle with a seven on its helmet runs through and knocks the stack away. The voice exclaims 'Seven!'.
The magician pulls out a playing card - the seven of clubs - and places it on the floor. The card becomes huge and all the clubs on it turn into small black birds. The voice asks 'Seven?'.
The magician opens the card like a door and a red hallway appears. Birds flutter inside and the magician closes the door, on which now a big black seven is seen. Then the magician puts the card back into his hand.
The magician makes a seven appear on each side of him and creates a bright flash of light that fills the entire screen. When the light disappears, we see the magician falling from the sky and getting back up. Then the first magician retreats back into his cloak. The voice sings 'Seven!'.
Then ten spies appear, gradually opening their coats and showing the numbers one to ten. The voice counts/sings the numbers one to ten. Then the spies fade away and the numbers grow so big that they fill the entire screen.
Overall, the song lyrics 'Jazzy Spies' by 'Sesame Street' are a fun way to teach children the numbers from one to ten. Various visual elements are used to represent the numbers in a playful way and encourage counting.
