\"\"<\/a>\u00a0With deepest apologies to the late, great, Jim Henson. \u00a0\u00a0Sing along – you know the tune!<\/p>\n

\u00a0It\u2019s time to take our seats now<\/address>\n
It\u2019s time to dim the lights<\/address>\n
It\u2019s time to see what they\u2019ve done<\/address>\n
To the Muppet<\/a> show tonight!<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
With words by Jason Segal<\/address>\n
James Bobbin\u2019s done them right<\/address>\n
I\u2019m not ashamed to say I<\/address>\n
Loved the Muppet show tonight!<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
Chorus<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
The Muppet Theater\u2019s threatened<\/address>\n
By an evil oil tycoon<\/address>\n
They\u2019ve got to get the old gang back<\/address>\n
To save it from this loon!<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
You really feel the passion<\/address>\n
from Segal and the crew<\/address>\n
It made me laugh out loud<\/address>\n
And I think that you will too!<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
There’s morals for the children<\/address>\n
And songs that they’ll love too<\/address>\n
Mixed in with jokes that are<\/address>\n
Nostalgic and some new!<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
Chorus<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
There\u2019s problems at the start though<\/address>\n
With insincerity<\/address>\n
The end needs lots of work cos it\u2019s too<\/address>\n
\u2018deus ex\u2019 for me<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
And Piggy\u2019s voice, it wavers<\/address>\n
No Oz behind the Star!<\/address>\n
I hope that one day he\u2019ll be<\/address>\n
Back to shout \u2018Hiii Ya!\u2019<\/address>\n
\u00a0<\/address>\n
But these are minor quibbles<\/address>\n
Yes these are minor quibbles<\/address>\n
Just a few minor quibbles with<\/address>\n
The mostly excellent<\/address>\n
Celebrational<\/address>\n
Muppetational<\/address>\n
That is what I call a Muppet Film!<\/address>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
