Tenderly by The Muppets Lyrics

Dr. Teeth:
(Spoken)
Now, ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to do for you an old favorite. We like to think of our group as being able to play more than hard rock. So here's an old favorite for some of you mom's and pop's. It's called, and we'll play, tenderly

(Sung)
The evening breeze caressed the trees

Electric Mayhem:
Tenderly!

Dr. Teeth:
The trembling trees embraced the breeze

Electric Mayhem:
Tenderly!

Dr. Teeth:
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we

Dr. Teeth:
The shore was kissed by sea and mist
Electric Mayhem:
Tenderly!

Dr. Teeth:
I can't forget how two hearts met

Electric Mayhem:
Breatlessly!

Dr. Teeth:
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

Electric Mayhem:
Tenderly!

Tenderly!

Dr. Teeth:
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love

Electric Mayhem:
So tenderly!

Dr. Teeth:
You took my lips, you took my love
Electric Mayhem:
So tenderly!
So tenderly!
So tenderly!
So tenderly!

Dr. Teeth:
(Spoken)
Now that's tender, man

Kermit:
(Spoken)
Hey, Animal, you guys were wonderful

Animal:
(Spoken)
Yeah!

Kermit:
You know, I've always felt that the Dr. Teeth group was one of the exemplary practitioners of contemporary music

Animal:
Whatever!

Kermit:
Yeah... Well, nice talking to you, Animal
