To Morrow

This is one of the very best songs from The Muppet Show, performed by Muppet versions of Jim Henson, Frank Oz and Jerry Nelson. Here's the video courtesy of YouTube as well as the lyrics so you can follow the song, or try too anyway! A fun fact is that the song was on one of the best episodes of The Muppet Show, with Rita Moreno as the guest star, and she did a great rendition of Fever, with Animal! In fact, her appearance won her an Emmy, making her the only performer in history (at that time) to have won a Tony, a Grammy, an Emmy, and an Oscar.



To Morrow by Jim Henson & The Muppet Travellers

TRAVELLER (Jim Henson):
I started on a journey just about a year ago,
To a little town called "Morrow" in the state of Ohio
I'd never been much of a traveller and I really didn't know,
That Morrow was the hardest place I'd ever try to go.

So I went down to the station for my ticket and applied
For tips regarding Morrow not expecting to be guide
Said I, "My friend, I'd like to go to Morrow and return,
No later than tomorrow for I haven't time to burn."

Said he to me,

CLERK (Jerry Nelson):
Now let me see if I have heard you right
You'd like to go to Morrow and return tomorrow night
You should have gone to Morrow yesterday and back today,
For the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way
If you had gone to Morrow yesterday now don't you see,
You could have gone to Morrow and returned today at 3
For the train today to Morrow if the schedule is right,
Today it gets to Morrow and returns tomorrow night.

TRAVELLER:
Said I, "I'd like to go to Morrow so can I go today,
And get to Morrow by tonight if there is no delay?"

CLERK:
"Well, well," I said to him, and I've got no more to say,
"Can you get anywhere tomorrow and get back again today?"

TRAVELLER:
Said I, "I guess you know it all, but kindly let me say,
How can I get to Morrow if I leave this town today?"
Said he,

CLERK:
You can not go to Morrow anymore today,
For the train that goes to Morrow is a mile upon its way.

TRAVELLER:
I was so disappointed, I was mad enough to swear
The train had gone to Morrow and it left me standing there
The man was right in telling me,

CLERK:
You are a howling jay
You cannot go to Morrow...

TRAVELLER:
Well I guess in town I'll stay.

FIDDLER (Frank Oz):
I don't get it.

I adore this song/sketch featuring Rowlf, who is arguably my favourite of the Muppets. Rather than post the lyrics, I've decided to post the link to the video of the song, which has been posted on YouTube. Enjoy!

"Bork! Bork! Bork!" Your happy and energetic - with borderline manic tendencies. No one really gets you. And frankly, you don't even get you. But, you sure can whip up a great chocolate mousse
