"Standing here, looking at you, surrounded with trash ... it just about makes my stomach churn!" And, coming from Oscar, that is a stone cold compliment. Happy Valentine's Day, kids! After watching a building get demolished, Oscar the Grouch (Caroll Spinney) and Hermine (Richard Hunt) declare their feelings, awwww. Their painful, sickly, disagreeable, insincere love. If that ain't love these days, I don't know what is ;-) "I Love Ya Cause You're Insincere", written by Sam Pottle and Judy Freudberg, from Episode 1070 (Season 9, 1977), via my sweet Secret Sesame Street Santa. FULL episode linked below, enjoy!

LYRICS
Oscar: You really turn me off
I get a pain right here (touches where his heart should be)
And then I wanna cough (coughs)
I love ya cause you're insincere
Hermine: (Oh, Oscar, you make me feel so terrible!)
You make me feel real sick
Whenever you come near
I have to say, "Oh, yick!" (Yick!)
I love you cause you're insincere
Both: A more together pair of grouches there never was
You yell at me, I yell at you, because
Hermine: You've got that certain frown
Oscar: You've got that certain leer
Both: We always disagree
I love you cause you're insincere
(Hermine: Shall we dance?
Oscar: Why not?)
(They begin to dance)
Both: A more outrageous pair of grouches there never was
You yell at me, I yell at you, because
Hermine: You've got that certain frown
Oscar: You've got that certain leer
Both: We always disagree
Oscar: I love you cause you're insincere
Hermine: I love you cause you're insincere
Both: I love you cause you're insincere
