With apologies to Sesame Street, I just had to get this out of my head.
Five People in My Family
There is a mother,
and two fathers,
and a brother,
and a sis.
The END

Seeing as you brought it up...
I truly understand that sometimes, Sesame Street just pops into a person's brain and has to be dealt with.
I was raised on it, and it was kind of in vogue, in the 90's, to watch it while stoned with friends on weekday mornings.
The other day, I was trying to drive home to a co-worker that there were a dozen bolts sitting in a tray, and slightly exasperated, I counted them out while pointing at each one, singing it that one way they sang it on Sesame Street:
One two three FOUR FIVE, six-seven-eight-NIIIINE-ten, eleven twe-el-El-EL-ELLLLLLLVE!!!
(Not to be confused with the other song they had for counted to ten; one-two-three-four-five-six-seven-eight-NIIIIIIIIIINE!!!-ten!
LoL!
I don't remember those two songs, unfortunately. But resorting to Sesame Street to nail home a point shows what you think of certain mental skills of theirs.
I don't know why, but "... sitting in a tray" reminded me of the "sitting in a tree" song.
