262 00:17:33,233 --> 00:17:35,134 Oh! Oh, oh, oh, yeah.

264 00:17:37,533 --> 00:17:40,469 Yes, l can't come up with the next line.

265 00:17:40,533 --> 00:17:42,067 Maybe l can help.

266 00:17:42,133 --> 00:17:44,969 - Let me see what you last wrote here. - [screaming]

267 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,868 Hello, sports fans.

268 00:17:49,933 --> 00:17:54,904 Lewis Kazagger bringing you the wild world of Muppet sports.

269 00:17:54,966 --> 00:17:59,403 You join us today for the start of the 1 OO meter blindfold sprint.

270 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,302 And the finalists are on their marks.

271 00:18:03,366 --> 00:18:05,868 And they can't see a thing.

272 00:18:07,933 --> 00:18:09,968 Not even the starting flag.

273 00:18:10,033 --> 00:18:12,068 So, we'll ty the pistol.

274 00:18:12,133 --> 00:18:15,803 And there they go. And there and there and over there.

275 00:18:15,866 --> 00:18:20,136 Yes, number zero knocked down by number mo. He's up again.

276 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,669 Number seven looking like a man of action.

277 00:18:22,733 --> 00:18:26,103 Number zero knocked down again, this time by number six.

278 00:18:26,166 --> 00:18:28,101 Zero off to the side, six is off.

279 00:18:28,166 --> 00:18:31,802 Here comes mo looking vey far back, but number seven is quite good.

280 00:18:31,866 --> 00:18:35,436 l think he's found it. l think he's found the finish mark.

281 00:18:35,500 --> 00:18:37,602 Here they come, ladies and gentlemen!

282 00:18:39,133 --> 00:18:41,235 - And we have a winner! - [cheering]

283 00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:43,735 And we need a stretcher!

284 00:18:51,566 --> 00:18:55,336 Uh, uh, back to the regular program.

285 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,636 l think that number raises a pertinent question.

286 00:18:58,700 --> 00:19:00,868 - What's that? - Why did they do it?

287 00:19:00,933 --> 00:19:02,901 [laughing]

288 00:19:03,533 --> 00:19:05,334 How's the writing going, Fozz?

289 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,136 Oh, boy, l didn't know it would be that tough, Hary.

290 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,502 But you know. You write a lot of stuff.

291 00:19:11,033 --> 00:19:14,302 No, not really. No, well, l write songs.

292 00:19:14,366 --> 00:19:18,603 Yeah, they're terrific. How do you get ideas for all those songs?

293 00:19:19,433 --> 00:19:22,302 They don't come easily. You have to get inspired.

294 00:19:22,366 --> 00:19:24,768 - Like the song we're gonna do next. - Uh-huh.

295 00:19:24,833 --> 00:19:26,834 l discovered that song in Africa.

296 00:19:26,900 --> 00:19:28,901 l was in a county called Guinea.

297 00:19:28,966 --> 00:19:31,435 l went deep into the interior of the county

298 00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:34,202 and in a little village l met with a stomeller.

299 00:19:34,933 --> 00:19:38,836 That stomeller went way back into African traditions

300 00:19:38,900 --> 00:19:40,735 and African mythology

301 00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:45,804 and began to tell this stoy about the fire, which means the sun,

302 00:19:46,599 --> 00:19:49,202 and about the water, about the earth.

303 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,770 He pointed out that all of these things together turn the world around.

304 00:19:54,566 --> 00:19:58,102 And that all of us are here for a vey, vey short time.

305 00:19:58,766 --> 00:20:00,300 ln that time that we're here

306 00:20:00,366 --> 00:20:03,135 there really isn't any difference in any of us,

307 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,503 if we were to take time out to understand each other.

308 00:20:06,566 --> 00:20:09,669 And the question is, do l know who you are,

309 00:20:09,733 --> 00:20:11,434 do you know who l am,

310 00:20:12,433 --> 00:20:13,934 do we care about each other?

311 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:18,104 'Cause if we do, together we can turn the world around.
