"I'm Gonna Always Love You"

written by Ralph Burns and Jeff Moss

(Miss Piggy's imagines what if the Muppet gang had all known each other when they were babies--a very cute number, maybe terminally so.)

Over here for a very large--1.2 KB--and very worth-it sound file of this song from (you guessed it) Henson.Com.
Also featured on their site is most of the theme song to the Emmy-winning "Muppet Babies" cartoon series (1984-92)
for those of you who can remember it and can dig it (go...bye-bye!)

(Dialogue intro, in Central Park)
Statler: Hey, look Waldorf--it's the frog and the pig!
Waldorf: Yeah, looks like they're in love.
Statler: Yeah. Kinda makes you sick, doesn't it?
(Trademark laughter from both, followed by catcalls at Piggy and Kermit, who don't notice)

Miss Piggy: Oh, Kermie, I'm sorry I yelled at you. And I didn't mean it when I said it would have been better if we had never met. In fact, I wish we had met much sooner. . .Kermit, wouldn't it have been wonderful if we had known each other when we were little? Imagine...little Kermie....and little Piggy.

FADE OUT....FADE IN TO MUPPET BABY NURSERY
Baby Rowlf at piano, Baby Piggy sitting on it

Baby Piggy:
No matter what life may bring,
no matter what I may do,
be sure of one special thing
I'm gonna always be loving you.

(Tempo speeds up, Baby Rowlf plays an awesome piano intro...)

Baby Piggy:
I'm gonna be a movie star
And I'm gonna learn to drive a car
Gonna be a veterinarian too
And I'm gonna always love you.

(Musical, jazzy bridge)

Baby Kermit: Hi guys! Hi Fozzie!
Baby Gonzo: Hi Kermit!
Baby Scooter: Hello!
Baby Fozzie: Hiya!

Baby Piggy:

Then I think I'll study criminal law
And I'm gonna learn to scuba dive too.
And I'm gonna always love you.

And practice neurosurgery on your brain!

Gonna climb the Matterhorn
But only after all our children are born
'Cause I wanna be a good mommy too!
And I'm gonna always love you!
