Sesame Street - Accidents Happen lyrics

Accidents happen, that's what they say
(That's what they say)
Accidents happen, night or day
(Night or day)
Accidents happen when you're awake
Or you're nappin'
Accidents happen and that's okay

(Sometimes, accidents can happen when you
Are busy playing, y'know
And you do not want to stop to use the potty)
(That's right)

Sometimes you're not really sure
If you should go to the
Potty or play some more
But if you went too late
You'll have to run through the door
And then you might go on the floor!

Accidents happen (Accidents happen)
That is what they say
(That's what they say) accidents happen
(Accidents happen) night or day
(They happen night or day)
Accidents happen if you're awake
Or you're nappin'
Accidents happen and that's okay

(And sometimes, even after you know how to
Use the potty during the day
You can still have accidents at night)
(Oh, yes, yes many kids wear
Training pants only at nighttime
Just in case)

Every once in a while, you know you might
Have an accident when you're asleep at night
And that's okay, yeah, that's all right
Mom and Dad will help you clean
Up and then you'll sleep tight

'Cause accidents happen (Accidents happen)
That's what they say
(That's what they say) oh, accidents happen
(Accidents happen) they happen night or day
(They happen night or day)
Accidents happen when you're awake
Or you're nappin'
Accidents happen and that's okay

(But sometimes, sometimes you can stop
Accidents from happening)
(Yes, there are ways to tell if
You have to use the bathroom)

Sometimes that feeling sneaks up on you
When you've got to pee or you've got to poo
But your body's gonna give you a clue
So listen to what it is telling you
But if you don't get there in time
It's not a crime
Just try and make it to the potty next time

Oh, accidents happen (Accidents happen)
That is what they say
(That's what they say) oh, accidents happen
(Accidents happen) night or day!
(They happen night or day)
Oh, accidents happen (Accidents happen)
When you're awake or you're nappin'
Accidents happen and that's oka ay!
Accidents happen and that's okay!
