"Picture a World" is a Sesame Street song originally performed in the show's first season in Episode 0118. It describes a world with clean water, beautiful natural surroundings, and happy children, and asks the listener to "Picture a world... and try to think of a way to make it that way."

Bob performed the song at least twice on the show, while Gordon and Susan sang it together on record albums. Diana Ross also covered the song in Episode 1639.

Julie Andrews and Perry Como were joined by Big Bird, Biff, Cookie Monster, Grover, Ernie, Bert, and Kermit the Frog for a performance on the steps of 123 Sesame Street in the 1973 special Julie on Sesame Street.

A slightly re-written version was performed by Papa Bear, Zoe, Elmo, and Baby Bear in the 2008 video Love the Earth!
