"Let's Fall Asleep" is a Sesame Street song performed in Episode 2971, spoofing the Cole Porter tune "Let's Fall in Love."
Big Bird, tasked with watching Oscar's pets for the night, finds it hard to sleep with such a rowdy group of animals. He proceeds to sing them a song about how animals of all kinds need sleep, which puts Oscar's pets out like a light.
The music would be modified and extended for the song "Let's Lay an Egg" the following year.
