"I Wonder 'Bout the World Above Up There" is a Sesame Street song sung by Kermit the Frog and three Anything Muppet kids (performed by Jerry Nelson, Camille Bonora, and Martin P. Robinson).
The song begins with Kermit and the kids at a park. The kids are looking down for objects, but Kermit is looking up in the sky, and they start singing about the things that are up above them.
Big Bird, Elmo, and Hu Hu Zhu sang a modified version of this song in the finale of One World, One Sky: Big Bird's Adventure.
