Jimmy Fallon, Sesame Street & the Roots Sing "Sesame Street" Theme (with Classroom Instruments)

I dare you to not sing along with this, it is a fun version of the classic theme song we all know.  But as an added twist, about a  minute into the performance, the song you hummed as a kid takes a twist and turns into the one you want to learn as an adult, as Black Thought of The Roots begins to rap. New school!

"Ok, you heard about, through word of mouth, Big Bird is out, he's in the house, he turnin' up, with Snuffleup. They really gettin' their hustle up, because they stick together like Velcro, there Grover go, there's Elmo, and Cookie Monster. Look, he likes to take selfies with his cell phone. They got a homegirl named Abby, her last name is Cadabby, I showed her my report card, she said, 'Not too shabby!' They got all types of cool kids there, it's lots of fun if you live there, but one thing i keep, forgettin' about Sesame Street: How do you get there?"

Got to love Jimmy Fallon and I cannot wait for him to take over the The Tonight Show!!
