In the song, Bert and Ernie detail, in rap, how the two first met and became roommates. The video also features appearances by Bert's mom, Super Grover, and Oscar the Grouch.
Notes[]
- The video was shot in June 2018.[2]
- Bert reads "Cooking With Oatmeal" used in a few early sketches from the 1970s.
- The graffiti art includes the phrases "Doin The Pigeon," "Here Fishy Fishy," "Put Down the Duckie," "A la peanut butter sandwiches," "Frazzle Was Here," and "I Love Trash." The art also depicts Sam the Robot, Teeny Little Super Guy, and an orange Oscar the Grouch (as he originally appeared in the first season).
