"The Magic Store"/"Rainbow Connection" (reprise)

written by Kenny Ascher and Paul Williams

(Finale of "The Muppet Movie" on the Hollywood set, which concludes with a rainbow literally busting through the roof.)

Kermit:
It starts when we're kids, a show-off in school;
Makin' faces at friends, you're a clown and a fool.
Doin' prat-falls and bird-calls and bad imitations;
Ignoring your homework, now that's dedication.
You work to the mirror, you're getting standing ovations.

Muppets
You're burning with hope, you're building up steam.
What was once juvenilish is
Miss Piggy:
grown-up and stylish,
Muppets:
You're close to your dream.
Then somebody out there loves you,
Stands up and hollers for more;
Fozzie:
More!
Muppets:
You found a home at the Magic Store.

[Musical bridge]

"The Rainbow Connection" (reprise)

Kermit:
Why are there so many songs about rainbows?
Fozzie:
That's part of what rainbows do.
Gonzo:
Rainbows are memories, sweet dream reminders
Miss Piggy:
What is it you'd like to do?
Muppets:
All of us watching, and wishing we'd find it;
Fozzie:
I've noticed, you're watching too.
Muppets:
Someday you'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers, and you.

[Another Musical bridge]

Kermit/Muppets:
Life's like a movie, write your own ending
Keep believing, keep pretending
We've done just what we set out to do.
Thanks to the lovers, the dreamers, and you.
