Interpretation
The lyrics of the song "The O Song" by
Sesame Street is a funny and cheerful song that tells the story of different characters connected to the letter "O".
The text begins with the description of a journey where a boat sails across the sea. But then the wind blows and it starts to snow. A frog, who is talking on the phone (yes, really!), calls a goat who is eating a strange meal of bones, potatoes, and soap.
Suddenly, a rope appears and captures the goat. A boy climbs onto a stone made of Os and the rope pulls the goat along with it. The Os turn into smoke and float closer to a bulldozer that is closing a hole so the cold wind can't blow anymore. The sun comes out and the roses can grow.
At the end of the text, it becomes clear that all the characters, like the boat, the bulldozer, the frog, the boy, and the goat, are okay. The text ends with the question "OK?".
Overall, "The O Song" is a joyful and crazy song that emphasizes the fun of playing with the letter "O" and telling absurd stories. It is meant to bring joy to children and spark their interest in letters and words.
