COOL VIDEO: Sesame Street: Alligator King

"The Alligator King" is an animated Sesame Street segment about the number 7.

This segment was animated, produced, and directed by William "Bud" Luckey. The music was performed by San Francisco jazz musician Turk Murphy and his band, with Murphy providing the vocals and Luckey playing the banjo.

The song was originally recorded with a slightly different end lyric: "I got it on sale at Monkey Ward's" (a slang term for department store Montgomery Ward). For reasons unknown (possibly legal), the lyric was changed to the generic "discount store." The version heard on the show has the ending line rerecorded with the new lyric, while the original unedited recording is preserved on the 2001 Turk Murphy compilation CD Wild Man Blues.

Figures of the King and his seventh son were released as a part of the fourth wave of Sesame Street ReAction figures in 2025
