My Grouch Family

"My Grouch Family" is a Sesame Street song about Oscar's family from Episode 2181.
In response to seeing Susan and Gordon writing out Miles's family tree, Oscar the Grouch leads the Grouchketeers in a tune about the literal branches of a grouch family tree adorned with photos of his family.
In a verse about his dad, Oscar claims that he once told him that if he was messy, fussy, and loved trash, he'd grow up to be just like him. Another verse about his mom explains that she taught Oscar how to read and coached him in grouch manners with patience and calm (despite known grouch temperament).
The Grouchketeers join in on the chorus which lists a brother, sister, and other extended family, although without naming them or designating which photos on the tree are which. One of the unnamed members also bears a striking resemblance to Osvaldo, el Gruñón.
