From 1989, the days seem so darn long right now, let's take a break as Hoots the Owl (Kevin Clash) and the Owl-Stars show us what happens when it's "Sleepytime on Sesame Street", written by Tony Geiss. The band consists of the cats, Chip (usually Kevin Clash, not sure who's under the felt this time) and Dip (Richard Hunt), on the drums and upright bass with an unnamed chicken on the keyboards. The scenes of everyone sleeping were new, but Ernie and Bert's shot was from "Dance Myself to Sleep".
From Season 21 (Ep 2619), this one's for my cyberbro, @That Hat Guy, with a whole lotta thanks to the always well-rested @Sesame Maniac.

LYRICS
(Spoken) Welcome back to Sesame Street After Bedtime! (rimshot on the drums, he nods to the offscreen drummer) Thank you. Everyone's asleep, but you and me. Yeah, they gotta sleep sometimes, it's part of being alive. Like ... breathing and eating. But, when they're asleep, I'm awake. It's my favourite time. (To the band) Okay, here we go, guys! And a-one, a-two, and a-one, two, three, four! (music starts; for each of the character lines we see the person/Muppet asleep in their beds or their floor in amongst the crates in Barkley's case; sheesh, not even a blankie for the big fella?)
The sun's gone down in the west
It's time for people to rest
Gals and guys are closing their eyes
'Cause it's Sleepytime on Sesame Street
Big Bird is making some z's
Barkley is dreaming of fleas
Oscar the Grouch is out on the couch
'Cause it's Sleepytime on Sesame Street
Gordon and Susan are a'snoozin'
Telly is counting sheep
Now is my time
Lullaby time
When all the world's asleep
Snuffy is having a doze
No Honkers honking his nose
Can't hear a sound
No one's around
'Cause it's Sleepytime on Sesame Street
(Smokin' saxophone solo)
Bert and Ernie's on a journey
Into the land of dreams
But, I'm singing and a'swinging
Under those bright moonbeams
The world is taking a break
But, I've got music to make
I'm happy staying awake
'Cause it's Sleepytime
I said Sleepytime
Whoa! Sleepytime on Sesame Street, yeah!
