My Friend Sue (Rootie Kazootie Song)

My friend, Sue
Gave me this kazoo
But she forgot to tell me
What to do
So when I blew
On this kazoo
I went (phew, phew, phew)

I said, “Tell me, Sue
Ho do you do
Those wonderful things
On your kazoo”
‘Cause when Sue blew
On her kazoo
It went (hum kazoo)

She said, “lemme tell ya
You go right to it
You don’t blow through it
You hum in to it”
I said, “Hum into it?”
She said, “Hum in to it”
I said, “Hum into it?”
She said, “Hum in to it”
Now I go (hum into kazoo)

Rootie Too Too
Let’s play our kazoo
We’ll play together
Just me and you
In our rootie tootie
Sweet kazootie band

I love the music
You love it too
I can tell by the way
That you play your kazoo
In our rootie tootie
Sweet kazootie band

Slide like a trombone
Here’s what we’ll do
Play like a trombone
On our kazoo
Who’ll be in a tuba
We need one or two
Deep down and tootie
On the kazoo
In our rootie tootie
Sweet kazootie band

I said, “Thank you, Sue
For this kazoo
And for teaching me
What I oughta do”

(Spoken)
Now I go… (play tag of chorus)

Let’s play a chorus
Let’s play quite a few
I’ll play the melody
You play it too
In our rootie tootie
Sweet kazootie band
