"Bein' a Pig" is a Sesame Street song that, like composer Joe Raposo's "I'm an Aardvark," extols the virtues of the titular animal, this time from a "first porcine" perspective. The song, with character vocals by Joe Raposo, was played over live footage of pigs in the Sesame Street insert.
Another song about the life of pigs, "Pig's Love Song," had appeared earlier on Sesame Street. "Bein' a Pig" is in a 4/4 meter, as opposed to "Pig's Love Song," which is in 3/4.
In Season 33, a new animated version was made by Misseri Studio, using Raposo's original vocal track. (First: Episode 4027)
