A Memorable Quote from "Sesame Street"

Here's something I found while browsing at the Internet Movie Database.

:D
Grover: Hello sir and welcome to Grover's Taxi.

Customer: Oh no, it's you.

Grover: Yes it is I, your furry blue taxi driver. What can I do for you,
sir?

Customer: I want to go to the library.

Grover: Oh a very wise choice. The library is a wonderful place with books
to read and you can listen to records like, "The air is alive with the Sound
of Music."

Customer: I know that. Let's go.

Grover: You know you can take home books from the library too, if you bring
them back of course.

Customer: I know. That's why I'm going there.

Grover: Of course you could also go to the zoo.

Customer: I don't want to go to the zoo.

Grover: Why? There are lions and tigers there. And the lions go Rrrrroar!
And do not forget the monkeys, they are so cute, they go 'ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh'. And you can buy a balloon there.

Customer: I don't wanna hear ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh. I don't want a balloon, I
want to go to the library!

There's a more adult version of this on a Canadian show called Royal Canadian Air Farce.

Driver (with arabic accent wearing fez): Where you want to go?
Customer: The Royal York hotel.
Driver: Royal York too expensive, I take you to airport Holiday inn.
Customer: But...
Driver: You pay cash right?
Customer: Do you take credit cards?
Driver: No Viesa! You give me Viesa I kill you!!
(customer makes a comment on his accent)
Driver: You make fun of Dave because of his accent. Dave can't help he is from Winnipeg!
Here we are Holliday Inn.
Customer: Here's $20 plus a $5 tip.
Driver: My daughter is very sick
(she hands him another fiver)
My wife she need baby food
(hands him a twenty)
My mother needs breast implants
(sighs and hands him a fifty)
Driver: Ha ha ha, Dave has still got it.  ;D

Yes, because reading it is much more like reading a play written by William Shakespeare.

I NEVER SAID THAT THERE IS ANYTHIG WRONG WITH SHAKESPEARE.  I meant that reading this joke is not funny.  I compared it to Shakespeare because I dont think that his plays are funny.
