"X Marks the Spot!" is a Sesame Street song about the letter X, sung by Sherlock Hemlock on The Muppet Alphabet Album, and later taped as a segment on the show. Among the items Sherlock encounters are an X target, a crossroad sign, an X-ray machine, a railroad crossing sign, a skull-and-crossbones sign (which can be a symbol for danger, poison and pirates), and finally, a xylophone.
