Here are the lyrics to "What's The Name Of That Song?". I did find them on the web. This is an old classic Seseme Street song, and one of my favorites and my kids', too. I know you said you didn't want any links to the web or anything, but I've also included a link that allows you and your child to watch an old video where they perform this song, too. Hope this answers your question!
